How about putting all your wishes into one thread, that way we can consolidate our epic fail and facepalm pictures into one area?

<Smacks ever last one of ya>

A bunch of Spits had em.    WRONG!  One squadron of ground attack Spit Vc in the Med had em.  They also had the big Vokes filter under the nose and lugged bombs.  They were not there to dogfight.  The Malta Spit Vcs that were sent with 4 cannon had two immediately removed to save weight and increase performance.   The only other Spit with 4 was the Spit 21 of which one squadron had them in Mid 45 and they never ran into an enemy airplane.

As for the 51.  use the search engine.  Limited numbers very limited use.

...And, it wasn't "just a P-51B with cannons".

Phatzo thats the P-51K. It only served in the Pacific so HTC won't model it. He said as much at the 2008 CON. Pity though, think of the firepower.

That is a P-51K?!  I thought the P-51K looks just like the "D" but the props 2" shorter.  and served in the ETO.

You're mistaking the "P-51K" for the "P-51H".  The P-51K was nothing more than a P-51D that was built in Dallas with the Aeroproducts propeller.

what, so you can HO with them?

srsly, the performance loss would be noticable, and that kind of hitting power would make it far too tempting.

spit MkVII squadrons in south Asia  would use the 4 cannon package in the E wing for attack sorties that had been planned . the wing would use a mixture of 4 X 20mm and 2x 20mm 4 .303 armed aircraft in such sorties  .  obviously it would take a day or so to revert the converted aircraft back the the standard Ewing configuration after the missions.
