Gun Packages
« on: February 08, 2012, 10:16:46 AM »
I am requesting that for certain planes (SBD, TBM, 110, D3A/52N, B25s, even the scorch) have the option to remove the lower/upper tail guns. If a guy is saddled on your six, most likely those guns won't shoot the dude down. I never use any of them because they are pretty much dead weight, but being there are players who like it, I feel this new option to keep or remove them will keep both players happy.

I wish people would use the wish list forum to post their brilliant ideas, and be smart enough to not post all their stupid ones.

But I am under no disillusions of my wish ever being fulfilled.

It wasn't standard on the B-17G also fact it was taken off all B-17s after July of 1944.

+1 I agree  :aok

 -1 but let's keep it real.
If I had a gun with 3 bullets and I was locked in a room with Bin Laden, Hitler, Saddam and Zipp...  I would shoot Zipp 3 times.

No, they didn't fly like that.  I am not even sure that D3As and B5Ns on kamikaze flights let the poor gunner stay home.

No, it wasn't standard on the G.  I believe the F was the last to have the radio gun on production models.
