i know that there is ar234 night fighter version with either mk108 or mg151gun pods and radar but the normal ar234 b2 can also have them if I’m not mistaken but i have no knowledge or credibly documented to base that on just text saying it’s compatible with b2 variant
if it says that, then it can be reported (title as suggestion)

It is and its name is the Ar 234 B-2:
Furthermore, I already did bug reports concerning the missing ones on the Ju 87 D-3 & Ju 88 A-4 (might do reports for the 234 B & C eventually):

No, it is the Ar-234 B-2/N.
Ingame we have the B-2 without the night interceptor kit.

“yes the night fighter has it but normal b2 can be uninstall these gun pods”
Imo it should get the night fighger modifications as an unlockable mod, bc at least in air rb this plane even at 6.3 is mediocre
the ar234 is not mediocre its just missing guns to defend itself imagine flying a plane and running out of ammo you still have guns but no ammo and suddenly youre just like the ar234 the thing is the ar234 is actually one of the fastest planes in 6.3 br at 2km it can hit 675kmh isa or 730km speed and it turns insanely well it can out turn planes like the p51h
the f2g even super props and sometimes the spitfire mk22 or 24 the only real threat are the ones it cant outrun so if its fast and turns this good the only thing it really lacks are guns

The B-2/N is much more than a bomber B-2 with a gunpack. It also adds radar and a rear radar operator cabin replacing the optional camera gear. Taken together would add up to essentially a different aircraft in game rather than a single researchable mod.
If you want to strap guns to an Ar234 a better suggestion would be Wrk.Nr. 140146, a unique single seater B-1 operated by Erprobungskommando Bonow.

It seems that you are confused. No one is talking about the Ar 234 B-2/N nightfighter, the aircraft pictured below with the second crewman and radar:
The aircraft being discussed is the game’s current unarmed Ar 234 B-2 & its lack of a Waffenbehälter 151 mounted on the Schloßlafette 1000/500 XI B under its fuselage:
Notice the 2. Abwurflasten & 4. Lotfe 7 in addition to the Waffenbehälter 151. The Waffenbehälter 151 is currently found on the bombers Ju 87 D-5, Me 410 A-1/U2, & Me 410 B-1/U2 & could also be mounted to the Ju 87 D-3, Ju 88 A-4, & of course the Ar 234 B-2 (& C) in order to give them expedient armament:
Erich Sommer notably had one installed on his Ar 234 B-2b (again not /N) aircraft:
As for its effect on performance, an Ar 234 B-2 equipped with a Waffenbehälter 151 under the fuselage plus 2 x SC 500 under the engines would come out to about 683 km/h at 6,000 m or 723 km/h with just the Waffenbehälter and no bombs:
Finally, another (better) game even features it on its aircraft:

no, the ar234 is quite mediocre, like on its best and most optimal bomb loadout it can only kill like 2/3rds of a base and gaijin also bugged it so if u take this loadout you dont spawn with the rocket boosters when you rearm, you only got speed but apart from that your kit is awful
