Title: A20 - Boston ventral gunner positions
Post by: Tilt on December 24, 2009, 03:26:20 AM
I know wishes have been expressed for the addition of the A20/Boston ventral gunnner position before.

In the absence of this would it be possoble to add an auto ventral gun position that only fires in sync with the manned dorsal guns?

Not sure on the Boston offhand, but A-20 did have one. IIRC Superfly said that it isn't modelled because of the lack of references regarding the ventral gunner's compartment, since then, some pics have been posted of that area. I think there's a chance it might be added when the A-20 gets remodelled.

  its just added weight,not really good for anything.
besides, the 6 guns in the nose are far better for dispatching cons  :devil

the A20 did have a lower gun position on some models, and when you are under attack you'd better have a guy handling some machineguns or just yelling on the radio ?

I hate Carla Bruni, she'd go out with any fat ugly politician as long as he's at least Premier Ministre. And I find her ugly too.
