II./SG.1-MarkWilhelmsson Posted September 4, 2020 Posted September 4, 2020 From recent reading, I've learned that during the war in the east many Hs129 with MG151/15 were loaded with an all AP belt comprised of a specially designed 15mm AP cartridge that had vastly superior anti-armour performance compared to the generic AP ammo that was typically loaded in other planes with the MG151/15 such as the BF109F2. What is the possibility that developers would be able to revisit the armament on the Hs129 and potentially include this specialty AP ammo which could penetrate up to 48mm of armour at 100m (if I recall correctly) for when the Hs129 is equiped with MG151/15? I have lots of data on this cartridge and can also provide quotes from Hs129 pilots talking about this specific munition. 2
