And how many Tungsten rounds were used historically? Are you suggesting this was the standard loadout for the 7.92mm MG's?
I don't think so. This was a relatively rare strategic metal, not available in Germany, usually reserved for application in Anti-Tank rounds, in this time period for the 37mm and later for the 50mm.
It's typical of a 1C product that you have these options in terms of loadout or aircraft, which can be selected without any penalty or restriction, and which completely unbalance the game.
So you have the situation whereby people are flying E-1's in preference to E-3's because the armament is more effective... Complete nonsense.
Why did the historical Luftwaffe replace the wing 7.92's with 20mm if they were no more effective?
