Why a poll anyway? If someone does it,let us decide whether to use it or not.It does not change dm/fm in any way,and is no more a 'cheat' than mirrors on other planes and K14 sights in Spitfires.

Indeed why a poll? A very good question :!:

It should not be a question of whether you want it or not, nor a question of cheating. Both of which are just childish bullshit. I bet there are few out there would dearly love to swap the 6x50's on the Mustang for something with a bit more punch, no?

It is a question of whether or not it was like that back then. That simple.

If 109"s had mirrors, then all that needs to be done is prove it. I think you will struggle as there is overwhelming evidence to the contrary, but good luck anyway.

Who knows you may well succeed, after all it only took one photo of the P-51D's custom mirror for it to be deemed a good idea to adorn all of them with it. For every singe photo of a P-51 with a custom mirror set up, there can be found 100's without, with ease. 1000's with a little effort.

Bottom line here is, the tools to mod things are publicly available, so anything anyone says here can only be seen as discussing guidelines. It won't be long before the atom bombs the homing missiles and the dreaded "star wars" mods start to appear like they did everywhere else

P.S. The K14 gun sight was used in quantity on late model Spits. It was another British design directly copied and manufactured in the USA for the US military, just like the Rolls Royce Merlin engine.
