Re: He 111H-6 bomb load

Hi,

He111 by Manfred Griehl is pretty good but the 'horse's mouth' would be D. (Luft) T. 2111 H-6, Teil 12B Abwurfwaffenanlage from the Flugzeug-Handbuch .

The latest I have is March 1943, which is the same as one from Udo Hafner. I can't scan/copy and the options can be quite involved but I'll give the equipment options for carrying them:-
Rustsatz A: 1 x ETC 2000/XII A and 1 x PVC 1006 L
or
2 x ETC 2000/XII A
Rustsatz B: 4 x ESAC 250/IX and 1 x ETC 2000/XII A
Rustsatz C: 2 x PVC 1006 B (These were for torpedos)

That gives the mountings, now you need to attach the weapons!

Sorry that I cant be of more help at present,

Regards

David

Thanks David. I've got Griehl's book but unfortunately it gives (as usual) some contardictory information.

Regards,
Pawel
