[claude]

Hi,

I'm trying to help a friend that wish to know what kind of weapons were installed on the Me 262 B1-a/U1, "Red 6", that was captures by americans in the end of the war.

What kind of weapons had? MK 108 or MG 151/20? And how many? 2 or 4?

Any information will be welcome.

Thank's

Claude

claude,

2 MK108 cannons in the upper positions. The lower cannon positions were used for the 'pipes' to mount the antenna.

from pics in Vol 4 pg 845-47 of the 4 book 262 series by Smith and Creek

WNr 110306/USA2/999/FE610 was initially captured by the British at Schleswig-Jagel.
