Stuka units using BK 3,7 in career?

[JG4_Moltke1871]

Hi there, are there any units with ground attack missions with BK 3,7 in the career mode? Probably on Kuban map?

 

Thanks in advance

I don't think so. Although during the Kuban campaign there was a "Versuchsstaffel für Panzerbekämpfung" (experimental anti-tank squadron) attached to Stg 2 during May to July 1943 that used the Bk 3,7. But the unit flew few missions against tanks, most missions were against boats and barges in the Temryuk swamps.

I guess many people already know the units guncam footage:

Thanks for that. 
 

Maybe @LukeFF knows there are some Stuka units with missions equipped with BK’s?

No, none of the anti-tank units are flyable in career mode.

I think since the whole career system was an afterthought of the GB series, they never got around to create mission templates for this after releasing Kuban. AFAIK we dont have any anti-shipping strikes in career either. Which both is a pitty.

We most certainly do have anti-tank mission templates now. The issue is that none of the dedicated anti-tank Ju 87 units are flyable.

Yep, that might be the case. The Hs-129 units are flying CAS missions in Kuban. Shouldn't be that hard to have a Ju-87 G1 unit to do the same?

There is or was a mod to enable the experimental squadron in Kuban, but trying it years ago there was the issue that the AI didn't know to fire single shots or short bursts and would dump all their ammo in one run.

It's technically possible, sure, but to have it officially done we'd need to write up a unit history, localize it into other languages, etc.

Its a mess having this nice equipment for the Stuka but can’t use it in career mode 😫😫😫

Does PWCG have support for these Squadrons or at least this mission set up?

[czech693]

PWCG has four Stuka units and one of their assigned roles is "tank busting".
