AP rounds for ME-410's Mk103s

Although the ME-410's cannon armament was intended for use against bombers and not tanks, the Mk103 cannon was designed as a dual purpose weapon capable of firing AP rounds against tanks. Although it would be a little ahistorical, I think it would be a lot of fun to be able to go tank hunting with the 410, especially with that gorgeous telescopic sight. 

 

Servers and mission makers could always restrict this option for realism.

I would really rather not unless we can find evidence that it was actually used this way. Killing tanks is already easier in game than it was in reality, no need to exaggerate that further.

 

I also don't think leaving the problem to server operators is a good solution. There are 70ish planes now, all with multiple modifications each, and the game isn't any help in figuring out what's historical. AFAIK, the mission editor lacks any built-in feature to historically inappropriate.  As I brought up in [another thread](https://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/79777-prevalence-of-various-modifications/#comment-1204129), it's hard enough work just figuring out what mods are appropriate; doing and then applying that to every mission you build or generate is a tremendous pain.
