109 K6
« on: June 20, 2011, 07:53:01 PM »
Based on the K4, but with an extra mk 108 in each wing, did go into production and several were made/used in combat.
The Kanonenvogel had 6 rounds per pod, this is not even close to being open for debate.

When you say, "went into production", you mean a few prototypes were built for testing, or that the factory got the thumbs up for producing them in mass?

Also, how many were used in combat?  (i.e. how many is "several"?)

The only known K-6s I see were being tested in late 44, but there are no work numbers listed for any 'production' of K-6s.

I'd rather see the R4 (gondolas) option added to the K4.  It didn't see 'widespread use' but it was available.  Further, there were production models delivered with the 20mm MG151 hub cannon in place of the MK108 - not all that many mind you, but enough for that option to be added IMHO.

You almost hear nothing about the 109K-6. They were just prototype and that i about how far they got. It would have been interesting to see the 109s advance like the 190 with the D-9 and D-13.

Even if it had a 10 perk price, like the spit14, it would be an easy one, I believe the only mods from our K4 would be the mk 108's in the wings.     :airplane:

30mm does take skill, I will give it that but the fact that its one shot one kill makes it easy IMO.

The challenge of the k4 isn't limited to its gun...

That and the firing rate is slow.
