He 162 potential problem

Author	Topic: He 162 potential problem
Maury Markowitz Pilot	posted 02-18- 11:50 AM Can someone check the firepower of the He 162? It should have MG151/20's, but looking in some of the other planes with the same gun (like the 109G) I see slightly different values. Maury IP: Logged
Sailor Pilot	posted 02-18- 12:43 PM If i'm correct, the He612 A-1 had 230 mm MK108 with 50 rounds each. The He612 A-2 had 220 mm MG151/20 with 120 rounds each, which should indeed be the same as on the 109 G : 750 rounds per minute, initial velocity 850m/sec. maybe it needs to be adjusted a bit ?

They're definitely 20mm's, but they just seem to be a little different than the other 20mm's. I'm wondering if they didn't get the values from the 190's MG/FF-M's during a cut and paste, instead of the MG151/20's? Maury IP: Logged
