Bf109 F2 Mg151

[Startrek66]

I suggest eliminating the choice to mount 20mm Mg151 on the bf109 F2.  It was not expected. Only 15 mm.

The difference between the two guns is the barrel, which could be changed by a one eyed mechanic without thumbs.

 

(As mentioned in the manual of the Bf109F-2, even though they say it takes 17 minutes for two trained mechanics to do it, because the gun had to removed and reinstalled in order to do that.)

Most F-2s were fitted with a MG 151/20 by the fall of 1941.

Thank you for the clarification.
