Hi,
I had my thoughts about smoke laying on another board, still can't see how it would be practical.
However the launching rails ideas , and having just had a nice glass of wine, made me think.
If the rail is jettisonable and it is a 109T,
Could the launching rail, not be to launch a weapon, but to launch the 109 ? the angle seems right to clear the prop on take off from a ramp.
A bit like a CAM hurricane, to give the german navy ships much needed fighter support, having no aircraft carriers ?
Might be a nice asset to a german raider, when spotted by an allied recce a/c, more punch than an AR-196.
But as I said I have just had a glass of nice bulgarian wine.
Cheers
Jerry
