Quote:

Irritating for me is, and this is documented in the Abschussmeldung, that he used for his shoots 3 (three) MG 151/20. I thought the Bf 109 G-2's were equipped with 2 MG 151 canons only.

Maybe I miss understand the question but the Bf 109G-2 was armed with 1 x MG 151/2cm firing through the prop hub and 2 x MG 17s. Bf 109 G-2s could be fitted with 2 x MG 151/2cm underwing gondolas.

'3 x MG 151/2cm' would makes sense if Weißenberger's Bf 109 G-2 was carrying gondolas.
