![]() The cannons themselves are accurate, even in stock configuration and have the fastest rate of fire of any of its contemporaries (Hispano Mk.IIs/404s, MG 151s, Ho-5s, Type 98/99s). However, they are crippled by mediocre damage per shot and by having close to the worst HEI round in the game, so one should focus on the critical components of a plane such as an engine and pilot. The ShVAK cannons are quite effective at this battle rating consisting of adequate damage output, a high rate of fire, and decent ammunition belts. 2 x 20 mm ShVAK cannons, nose-mounted (170 rpg = 340 total).It's also worth mentioning that the vast majority of the fighters carry 20mm cannons that are extremely powerful against other aircraft while at the same time being absolutely devastating against thin roof armor and open tops. So over all, Germany has some of the very best options at most BR's for highly effective ground attack aircraft. That's not counting the variety of bombers Germany has with 1,000kg (and even larger) bombs, as well as higher BR jets. Then there is, of course, the G.91 R/3 which is one of the most popular and prolific CAS planes in that BR range right now If you have it, the Me 262 A-1a/U1 is a very dangerous ground attacker Me 262 A-1/U4 can be a very effective cannon attacker and since you're a jet, more often than not the enemy is flying around in props so you're tough to catch Every time you fly out an Ar 234 you are virtually guaranteed at least two ground kills Ta 152 C-3 and Do 335 variants are also effective cannon ground attackers Some people do well with the 50mm variants, I personally prefer the absolute devastation that the B6/R3 brings at 5.3 Me 410's bring a variety of bombs or effective anti-ground cannons to the field. Any Bf 110 will have a large variety of ground ordnance as well as heavy firepower and is not completely useless against other aircraft Fw 190's starting with the A-5's bring capable ground ordnance and are afterwards excellent fighters Any Bf 109 starting with the E-1 brings at least one capable bomb to the field and afterwards is an excellent fighter Any Stuka, provided you can deal with it being an abysmal plane to fly, is a great dive bomber and brings the massive 1,000kg bomb to the field at only 1.3 He 112 A-0 at only 1.3 has a 20mm cannon that is quite effective against ground targets but is still a fighter plane ![]() You can also check the MK 103 armed ground attackers.Īre German aircraft worth grinding if I will only use them in Ground RB, since I still main British Air? Just play a bit caprushing with your Puma to quickly get airborne and check out what suits you most. For lower BRs the Ju-88 A-4 with 2x 500kg and 20x 50kg does the job. This allows you to engage alot hard targets. Ju-188 has a loadout option with 2x 1000kg bombs on inner pylons, 2x 250kg on outer pylons and like 15x 50kg bombs inside the internal bomb rack. Ju-288 gets you 2 bomb drops, Do-217 3 bomb drops. At the end its a question of how many bomb drops you have = how many hard targets you might engage and how useful the anti air mounts are. ![]() ![]() While the Do-217 line is quite a contender for the skullthrone (4x 1000kg), I'd finally opt for the newly introduced Ju-188 A-2 over all other Frontline Bombers. The powerful frontal armament shreds any plane as well and is suited to strafe light or open top vehicles.įor bombers I also tried alot (Do's, Ju's, He's etc.). while gunning tanks with anti tank shells usually takes too long and makes you very vulnerable to enemy actions. The G-2 double barreled rear MG is also quite capable to down planes trying to six' you. Gives you quick kills and you're free to go anti-air or to strafe stuff. I like to use the two bomb setup, but there are also setups with mountable anti-tank guns, whatever you prefer. Check out the Bf-110 G-2 Zerstorer for close air support. ![]()
