about the MK 103 loadouts: the FW-190F/G are supposed to be ground attack aircrafts, why do this gunpods have the normal loadout with mostly high explosive (HE) rounds? i would think they would have more armor piercing rounds(AP) because anti tank duty is the main reason for these 30mm guns?!
maybe you can change it into something like AP-AP-HE or AP only or add one MK103 (AP only) loadout or is this hardcoded?
this would make them tankdestroyer in the first place, something i am badly missing to do with the FW190 on east front! what do you guys think?

That's a very good idea in my opinion! I don't really know what the ammo loadout was on the MK-103 for antitank duties historically, but it can't be far from your suggestions. One problem will be encountered tho - by the time the MK-103 becomes available on Fw190, all russian tanks on the front are tough as hell, being very hard to destroy even with antitank stuka, and not very easy even with a Hs-129 with that 75mm cannon!

I've always wondered about this. It would be nice to see some historical references on it.

Thank you for the mod Danzi, only problem I've this plane shown in game WITHOUT CANOPY :-?

Please take alook at my mod 7.0 thread at http://allaircraftsimulations.com/forum/...hp?t=19058

There may be a conflicting mod... not sure why because I have all the mods installed and it seems to work ok on my PC... does the original F-8 show that behavior? what mods do you have?

hope you get it going...

viewtopic.php?t=19058&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=15

... original F-8 not showing that behavior, I've tested this on "clean" 4.08 and "clean" 4.08+Fw-190D11&13 and "clean" U@P v 1.7 instalation :???:

Hmmm.... I am at a loss. I have ran into some problems during my latest attempt with a different plane... I will look into this but at this moment I don't have an estimate of the time... have some family issues at the moment that are taking 100% of my time.

First of all I would like to say thank you "danzigzag" for those amazing new slots planes. Really good ones.

IMHO, I guess the problem with missing canopies on Fw190D9 and F8 are due DZZ uses bubble canopy.
I have 2 installs here: UI111 and UP 1.7. In UI111 it works fine no problem at all, I don't have flat canopy installed on it. But I got missing canopy in UP1.7, it uses flat canopy. I'm so sorry but I'm newbie to try to solve that.

Another little note on the Fw-190 Mk 103 trials: they were not considered successful due to poor accuracy achieved with the combination.

... I'm so sorry but I'm newbie to try to solve that.

Ha, It looks like "problem of mod standarisation"

So... still waiting for F-8/G-8 Canopy :roll:

you don't need the MK103 to make a good tank destroyer out of the 190, the Panzerblitz rockets should be perfect. except when i tried this mod the T34 were invulnerable to them even though according to a pilot that used them, two rockets were sufficient to knock out a T34 and a whole salvo to defeat an IS2

It says the BRS-82 "graphics" are used as a sub for Panzerblitz II. If the damage model is also used, its penetration would be less than half that of the Panzerblitz system.
