MG-151 option for the ME-262 suggestion (DRAFT)

Machinery of War Discussion Aircraft
1

The ME-262 has very poor gun performances which require excessive lead with the MK-108. early ME-262 V prototypes where fitted with MG-151 instead of MK-108s which the MG-151 is far easier to lead this option will be available to all models of 262 in game other than the 50MM and sqaudron 262 models which have different noses

in game this will be a similar swap to the BF109 K4 weapon selector you go to modifications and select the MG-151s and it removes the MK-108

One of the few examples where the lower caliber gun is better

can’t wait for the 262 to be damned into 7.3 for these.

The legendary Me 262 with MG 151 instead MK 108.
Every WTs Me 262s pilots dream.

If you havent already make a suggestion for it and include several sources if you can, Suggestions are the best way to impliment new features / Vehicles

6

its not gonna be a new vehicle itll be feature to existing 262s in game similar to how the 109 K4 in the german tree can switch between a 30mm nose cannon and 20mm

You can still suggest it as modification maybe

yes im literally suggesting it as a modification for the ME-262

But it only flew as a prototype.
So 0% chance we get it for the production variant.

100% it might get turned to an event vehicle, or Heavens forbid. A battlepass premium

you can still fit them as a armament in game for the production model its still possible the production and prototype V1 have same nose after all the this is for it to be added as a optional armament to the ME-262s

btw yak 141 like if the russian tree gets these execeptions so can germany yak 141 gets fictional arms it could not use its far more realistic with ME 262 than the 141 as the 262 could always equip such weapons

I will leave this unrelated bug response here since I think that it is relevant to this topic:

…In this case, armament from a Versuchs prototype onto a main production variant

they did that for swedish F18 gave it something it never had so just cause it could even though it never received it this is a null point

you cant just make exceptions for one thing then not make same exceptions for another

german mig 29s both never equipped with R27ERS yet they receive them in game

german F4F for example only ever equipped AIM 9Ls but for balance reasons they gave it 9G that the F4 never used

14

also just struggling to find sources right now as i cant find a single photo of it with 3 20mm still looking as it did fly with that load out but i think there might not photos of that

Romanian Hs 129 never had gun pods but Gaijin was like: Meh, don’t care. The plane could so good enough.

The italian Fw 190 F-8 also never had 2x Mk 103 and also has them in game. :|
