Re: Details on He111 Beam positions

Wait.... that worked. Taking out the image links doesn't work, so what if I take out all external references....

*sigh* my post wiped itself out because of the server maintenance.

Thankyou very much for the pics! I've not seen any of those before

Here are two of the pics i'm familiar with...neither appear to show the same mounting style as the pics posted so far, unless that's down to the method of weapon removal. If I quote the source, that should be safe enough

This *appears* to show some window framing, but no gun:

My thinking being that planes of the same unit at around the same would have the same ground crews, so a similar method of modification

If anyone has other pictures of 1H+IH 1940, that would be amazing! I know the code was re-issued... axisbiz has a damage report from an incident in Finland, 1942.

Another thought for +IH.... the beam gun on the port side can't have been mounted in the forward window as that would interfere with the radio racks, so, a staggered gun arrangement
