New anti ship/sub weapon for the mosquito
First adopted by the Royal Navy, the long barrelled 50-caliber Molins gun was added to the Mosquito airframe as an anti-tank gun but Costal Command used the Tsetse in the role of sub-busting. If anyone is interested there are more pictures,

ASW Aircraft with field artillery mounted?
 Putting tank busters on ASW patrols is just plain wrong!  PLEASE tell us you didn't add that B-25 in GWX! If you see any men in black leather trenchcoats looking for an AWOL Kaleun, just tell them I volunteered for the Eastern Front where life is so much more safe! Now if you'll excuse me, I have to grab my bullhorn and go trot around naked in front of Russian lines while shouting insults about Stalin and the proletariat. At least I can expect to live longer this way.

The B-25G's successor, the B-25H, was a purpose-built strafing machine, with a 75mm cannon, eight forward-firing 0.50-caliber machine guns, eight 5-inch air-to-ground rockets, and six 500-lb bombs; however, the 75mm cannon was not that successful in either aircraft since the bomber could only get off about four shots on each strafing run, and the gun had a strong recoil. Fortunately for most of you U-boat skippers, it was used primarily in the Pacific to shoot up Japanese cargo ships and ground targets. B-25s were pressed into service as ASW patrollers off the U.S. east coast during Operation Paukenschlag, but they were the older B-25B, -C, etc., medium bombers with just a single 0.50-caliber machine gun in the nose. We didn't put the B-25 in GWX this time since we thought rocket-armed B-24's would be enough; however, it seems we may have been mistaken about that...  Pablo
