Bummer..but Maybe that one will come later. Same for the AS Version?

but the 3min limit makes the G-4/6 now really competitive.

I managed to climb both to ~4000m in 3min which makes for a whooping ~22m/s (4300feet/min) climb speed (tested on Kuban Autumn)

Always was. Now its more.

Its a joy to see such updates related to the timers finally. Specially with this old topic (Like P-40)

Mostly; we still need it on G-6 Late Non-MW50, and Bf110 G-2.

110 G2 had the same additional oil tank as the 109 reconnaissance version, which precluded the use of the ad-hoc solution the DB605 needed to use emergency power until the D-version added an oil deaerator

But the 110 G-2 does have the ability to use emergency power; it's just 1 minute instead of 3.  Are you thinking of 109 G-2 that was not permitted to go past 2600rpm/1.3ata?

Nope, this is just me clumsily stumbling over my wording. I was just citing (from memory) the reason why the 109 G4/R3 had a 1-minute limit on Emergency Power in its manual as opposed to all other 109 variants with emergency power unlocked. The 109 G4/R3 featured an additional oil tank which prevented the use of the ad-hoc solution which enabled the 3 minute limit, and the 110 had a similar, if not the same oil system.

And what about the F-4?

The other problem is that I see on the servers that sometimes even on 1944 missions the 1.42 ata is locked. Or 30mm G6 does not get that module. Ridiculous 😄

This appears to have changed slightly with the 601E of F-4 (Royal Aircraft Establishment - Nov 1943 trials)
