would be so easy to kill though, it would be decimated in the MA, its rear defensive fire is worse than a Ju88.

Would be superb for BoB scenario's though.  Howver, with TOD round the corner i cant see any use for it for some time.

That what I said earlyer. For some people if it wasnt made in 44-45 they wont fly it. But I also said that the LW flyers would love it, and IMO it would be better then the 88 because of the 20mm. But if I know how HTC is the B25 and B29 would be made befor the LW flyers get a bomber we want. We have been begging for since before I even started playing. And it would be great for the CT and SEA but 99% of the MA tards want thier mach2 fighters and B52 bombers so Ill just stop asking for more german planes.

I suppose it would be nice for the TOD early Europe camp.
In the MA it's a hangar queen.  I do like the snobbish slam on
MA users, because I bet you'd fly nothing but the 111, huh?

I fly the 109F4 the 110C4 and yes the only bomber Id fly would be the He111. And by the "MA tards" I mean the guys in thier La7 G10s doras ponys typhs ect. and B24s and B17s that need to watch out for shrubs when they are flying 50ft off the ground.

20mm?

you referring to the nose gun?  that version wouldnt be useful for even BoB scenarios, and people would avoid hoing it and still come up against its pitiful rear defensive fire.

HE-111 would be great for town bombing as it holds about a bazilion small ord bombs. and they even carry up to two(?) 1800kg bombs. they also have a cool cockpit view.


as to the issue of firepower: i have no trouble defending my JU-88 formations against planes attacking from my 6. i consider good aim to be more usefull than even the biggest bomber guns.


PS
LA-5s and 7s are extremely vulnerable at the wing root.

The 20mm wouldn't do much to protect it. Nose mounted MG FF. everyone would just avoid it and fly up behind/bellow it like furball said.

The Ju88 is by far the better plane thanks to its speed. The Ju88 A4 we have was actually used in BoB aswell although not in very large numbers.

Of course, I would want the He111 anyway.

Thats what I mean just because the Ju87/88 dont have good armament doest keep me and many other people from flying it. The He111 was one of the mostly used german bombers used in the war. The He 111H4 would be the best to put in with its 5 7.92mm Mg15 and 1 20mm MgFF and a service entry of March/1940. And it could carry bombs and torps.

Would rather have a Soviet bomber. Pe-2 / Tu-2 at the moment.
