I've got ten friends who'll buy it in two weeks - be sure!


no they uses it in the Bf 109 G6 and Bf 110 G2 in July 1943 so perfect for Kuban...

 

If you're debating 110 equipment/service records with PzBar you're gonna be sorely disappointed.

True I will trust Panzerbar, but its possible that MK108 on Bf110 were too field tested on late summer like with Bf109.

МК108 with Bf110G.

 

19.03.1943 - Messerschmitt finished a project of MK108 installation in the nose of Bf110G-2.

 

21.05.1943 - first prototype built, Bf110G-4/U9, W.Nr.5429, with two МК108.

4.08.- 9.09.1943 - produced 5 Bf110G-2R3, evaluation started.

September 1943 - Bf110G-2 with new nose compartment, MK108 + FuG220 + FuG212 was built, and evaluations started.

 

October 1943 - new nosegun compartment still not passed evaluations. Galland ordered installation 2 x MG151/20E instead of 4 x MG17.

November - most aircrafts had deleted MG17's, but very feiw MG151 sets installed.

January 1944: MK108 were deleted from Bf110G's, with most aircrafts got MG151 instead of it in nose compartment.

 

Late february 1944: Problems solved, from march all Bf110G got MK108 back.
