Great improvement from your original drawings, major kudos and props to you.

Unless its been researched and some examples shown, I don't think a u-boat could handle a MG-42 in the tower mounts; the amount of recoil those guns produce is enormous. In the field they would frequently have to rely on just bipod mounts on the end of the barrells; but that didn't really steady the gun like a proper tripod. Tripods for a MG42 were quite a bit more heavy duty than their American counterparts of the time (mostly .30 cals) and were more of a platform that the entire gun sat on rather than slid into like a tripod mount. A true MG42 mount looks almost like an expanded set of billows; plus you had to keep spare barrells for when the ones in place would (inevetably) overheat.

MG42's could easily be adapted to any of the flak platforms (in place of whatever gun might be there) though would be tough to simulate the heat built up on in the barrell, or switching them out.

Tessa, you are a walking WW2 encyclopedia.

Huh? Who was talking about a MG42?

I released the MG34.
Those were mounted on U-Boats.

Hi chaps,

Sorry I've not been around much, I've been taking a break from gaming.

Fantastic work Privateer mate, superb model.

Now for some news, I've added the Mg-34s to the 7c-1 turn and will do other type 7s in the next few days and release as an add-on to my Super Turms 4 mod.

Kind Regards

Aces

Great work Privateer, makes for a fantastic addition! Thanks very much!

brett25 · 03-26-11, 06:41 PM

thanks privateer! Thanks Aces! great to see you back

By the way I made a modification to your superturms that will allow it to be used in NYGM (the position of the radar shrouding around the conning tower needed to be repositioned for NYGM) if your interested I can modify your newest version with the MGs and send it to you)

Aces · 03-27-11, 05:17 AM

Hi chaps,

thanks for your comments.

I've just upload a small mod adding the MG34s to my type 7c1 turm mod:

Please see below.

What am I doing wrong!

Unzipped Privateers MG34's, moved folder out of folder, moved to mods folder, enabled it last with Jsgme! Nothing.
