[MOD] *NEW* Slot A/C & Wpn (Fw-190D-9 '44 & '45) (7.0)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Attention: New Slot Only)
UberDemon is hosting all danzigzag MODs.
This is the SEVENTH of a series of small/simple mods which add new slot aircraft to the sim based on weapon modifications; this way updated models of many of the existing types can be created, without changing the original models, thus avoiding cheating and avoiding compromise of flight model and weapons.
Below are the previous releases:
#1.0 (The link is inoperative) (IL-2I, IL-2T)
#2.0 (The link is inoperative) (Ki-43 Series)
#3.0 (The link is inoperative) (Recon Pack: Yak-9R, Bf-109 F-5/F-6/G-8 and Bonus Adolph Galland Bf-109F-2/U1)
#4.0 (The link is inoperative) (TB-3 M-17 & M-34 Cargo and Paratrooper Transport)
#5.0 (The link is inoperative) (Hurricane IIa/IIb/IIb Soviet Field Mod/IIc)
#6.0 (The link is inoperative) (Bf-109G-10 wpn. mod & Ju-87R-2)
In this release (7.0), the following mods are included:
* Fw-109D-9, 1944 w/ Weapon Loads [NEW SLOT]
* Fw-109D-9, 1945 w/ Weapon Loads [NEW SLOT]
Focke-Wulf Fw-190D-9 "Dora-9"
==================================
(Reference: Several, including Donald, Dressel, Green, Grensell, Griehl, Il-2 Object Viewer, and Weal)
The Fw-190 was a great platform for adaptations and multiple use. The Luftwaffe saw a need for the development of a medium to high altitude version of the Butcher Bird, and Kurt Tank saw the need of creating a stop-gap measure before the Ta-152 came online.
The D series were developed from the A and F series and tested new power plants. The end result saw the Fw-190 going from the reliable BMW radial to a Junkers Jumo 213 series inline engine. The streamlined engine gave the new 190 a long nose, and the first series production, after several prototypes, came in the D-9 series, also called "Dora-9".
Although there were losses in maneuverability and roll, the feedback from pilots was very positive, and the D-9 proved to be a match for the newer Spits and Mustangs. Although the armament was fairly light (2x13mm MG131 + 2x20mm MG151/20, all firing through propeller arc), it was expected to mix up with bombers, and it was used by Schlachtgruppen as well.
The D-9 was used in the "Schlacht" role, and at least (but possibly not all inclusive), the following units either had them in their inventory, or used them in the ground-attack role in 1945:
* II./SG 10, Stab & II./SG2, SG77 (groups not identified), II./JG26 (John Weal included a famous picture of a bomb-carrying D-9 flown by II./JG26 in "Luftwaffe Schlachtgruppen")
Please take a look at the screnshots, and read the details of about what this MOD includes:

MOD Details
===============
(Reference: Several, including Donald, Dressel, Green, Grinsell, Griehl, Gunston, Il-2 Object Viewer, and Weal)
The main differences between the original 1944 and 1945 Dora-9's in the IL-2 series was the FM (addition of the simpler MW50 fuel injector accessed by the 'W' key) in the later version. Due to limitations on the current modding software, both share the same cockpit. You will notice that the original 1945 D-9 has only a slight change in the reticle and the frontal brown leather part of the sight.
Fans of the D-9 have for years asked for weapon loads, which none were available until now, albeit using the rack available to the A and F series as opposed to the shorter ETC 504.
NOTE on AMMUNITION: The original models had 750 rounds per gun in the 13mm MG131 but I have not found anything that supports that, so I reduced the ammo in the 13mm guns to the historical 475 rounds per gun, which after checking over 5 references in books from different authors, I am going with that.
Documentation from several sources and detailed by the Object Viewer state the ETC504 can handle up to 500Kg Load, or Drop Tank, or 4xSC50 or 4xSC70 with ETC4 adapter. From that I include:
* 1xDrop Tank
* 4xSC50 or SC70
* 1xSC250 or AB250
* 1xSC500 or AB500
The D-9 was also supposed to engage bombers, and according to Joachim Dressel and Manfred Griehl, it could handle rockets as the A and F series:
* "R 1 'Fw 190 D-9 with special armament' (two 21cm rocket launchers)" (quoted)
* I have added the ability to carry a drop tank in addition to the R1, as it would have been within the airframe handling capabilities.
Robert Grinsell stated that the F-8 was used extensively in the test of Torpedoes, and according to Dressel and Griehl, the D-9 was also configured as:
* "R 14 Torpedo carrier with unit bomb-rack 504 and Schloss 301 launcher for LT 1B aerial torpedo or BT 1000" (quoted)
The same authors further stated "The Fw 190 D-12 could also serve as a torpedo launcher for the D-9 series which was coming to an end." They also mentioned that the Fw-190D-12/R14 was the replacement to the Fw-190D-9/R14 using also the ETZC504 (Schloss 301) rack and adapter.
...so I felt fairly comfortable including this version which can be used for tests, and "what if" scenarios.
I hope you enjoy these planes as much as I do.
