Re: Me 262 missing a cannon shell ejection port?
Graham,
Yes, as far as I remember you are right. Later models were fitted with 4 canons and could carry bombs, but the difference was that these models had an additional fuel tank behind the cockpit so that the CG was moved more rearwards again. But this was only possible after the landing gear issues were fixed so that the take off weight could be increased.
There are Mtt reports that describe a violent upwards movement after the bombs were released.
Cheers,
Roger
