:mad: a few things are missing in this game eg
lancaster has only 2 tail guns were it should have 4,it cant carry the legendary bounceing bomb or GRANDSLAM
the 262 was able 2 carry 24 air to air rockets or 2 bombs
and were is the b29s they claim 2 have in the help file
i dont no wot the tigeriis look like so i dont no if there in there or not but judging by aircraft in dis game its probmissing 2
wen is this gunna get fixed:mad:
-
The lancaster we have has dual .50 caliber MG's in the tail turret. The four gun model had .303s, which are known in AH for being pretty much worthless as guns, except for killing chutes.

School is fo' SUCKAZ.

...also there is no tiny tim 2000 lbs rocket for the TBM & many others (see the 190f thread), but AH is still better than any of the alternatives

please check your facts, and please either buy a spell checker or learn to fu*king spell!
our lanc has the late war tail turret (but early war engines!!!) which has 2 x .50 BMG, the early war had a quad .303 cal mount
We have a different model of the 262
b29 is not yet in here, although i hope we get some bombers from other countries before we get another *sigh* american bomber
Tiger's coming, wait untill 1.11 comes out
-
Just curious as to how you guys know what guns are in the back of the lanc.
I just check the AH listing and it says nothing about .5's in the back
Thanks:confused:

It was discussed,before it came out and HTC stated that it would have the two .50s in the tail rather than the more common four .303s.
Personally, I am very skeptical that the Lanc's with two .50s in the tail carried so little ammo.
-
isnt the B29 a late war plane? I tought it was manufactured at the end of the war :confused:
does our Lancaster have the normal Merlin engines?

Thanks Karnak:cool:

#1 this game aint perfect
#2 dont expect you to be pittied
#3 this game aint perfect
#4 you aint getting no where
#5 We are still in the devolpment state, look where Airwarrior was at this stage practicly nowhere....
Either Shutup or find something reasonable to argue about..

If I do recall the ammo loadout for the Lancaster says nothing of haveing two 50's. It says all the guns on it are 303's. Well last I looked anyway.
Im at work, but you know for sure I will check when I get home, since I would love to have 50's in the lanc. I mean put a B26 and a Lanc in formation. Have two people coem up behine both in the same aircraft (lets say F4U-D) and we see how much ammo it takes to down them. I am almost positive the 26 will use half the ammo as the Lanc, and doesn't the 26 have twin 50's?
Booky
-
The Lanc has twin .50s in the tail.
-
Hehe when you want to check what caliber the lanc has back there.... Just compare how do the pings sound when you are siting on his low 6... :D Yep those are twin .50s :)
-
Those rockets on the 262 would be sweet, I would just fly super fast and attack bomber pack with them. They wouldn't escape, I'd shoot them all out at once and fry the bombers at one pass. I'd also do mass vulching where I would spray out rockets at airplanes trying to take off with my aweomse speed and mad skillz. I would rack up so much perk points..
-
wasn't it A model 262 in AH, while the bomb carrying version was B model.
However the rockets are missing.
Lancaster again is the best version for the allies, 2 .50cal's in the rear instead of the more commonly known Lancaster version with 4x.303 turret.
(Of course Ju88 is the worst version, the HTC style)
-
Was the 262 with the 50mm bomber busting cannon a production model or a prototype?

The Me262A-1/U4 "Pulkzerstorer" was a purely prototype aircraft; two airframes, Wk/nr 111899 & 170083. were modified to mount a single Mauser Mk 214 50mm cannon instead of the four 30mm Mk 108 cannon. The Mk 214 weighed 490 kg (718 kg installed and loaded) and was more than four meters long from breech to muzzle, firing a 1.5 kg projectile containing a 0.27 kg bursting charge at a muzzle velocity of 925 m/s, with a cyclic rate of 150 rounds per minute. One airframe was destroyed during testing; the other was captured and brought back to the US to be tested by "Watson's Whizzers", but crashed in Jersey while being flown to the testing site by Messerschmitt's test pilot Ludwig Hoffman.

I can see that the ranks have been filled with the non informed now. This BBS used to be a good palce for info. now we have tons of people running in here saying this and that and oh my Fu**ing god its not like AW. I have grown so disenchanted with this game. The crop that has come in for me has ruined it. Do wish for the old AH days, now its dweeb 1.11 I am waiting for to come out. And btw read some books you might learn something

Sachs, tell us how you REALLY feel.

And the 109G10 we have is the absolute best one, so your point is?

24 rockets on the 262 would be fun, but then, so would a Grand Slam or the bouncing bomb.
If the bouncing bomb is included some dams would be needed and lights added (for getting that 60ft just right like they really did it) What is more fun than flying a heavy bomber at 60ft at night, over water, straight towards a dam with guns on it, showing lights and with a required bombing error of nothing, if not less? Suicidal, but fun.
