That doesn't mean there won't be an E4 in the final.

I'll wait for the official announcement, before I cry and run in circles.
Don't all E-4s have the squared-off armoured canopy?

If that is true I'm sure we would have seen the E-4 by now if it was going to be included.

No, the E4 is just a E3 where the MG-FF were replaced with MG-FF/M.
The canopy change was made around the same time to all emils for additional pilot protection.

Well, i would always choose a E3 converted to E4!!!
The old style canopy gives a much better visibility!!!
In RL, of course, i would take the additional protection that the squared canopy gives .

Talking

You could also argue for the 109D (mg only version) I believe that was still flying in the BoB.

Just an observation, I don't mind shooting down Ds, E3s or E4s

Didn't the 110C4 have the MG-FF/M?

Strange, they could've made an E4 out of the already existing cannons

From what i've seen there is no E1 or E4 or E7 or square canopy...

but on the plus side we do have an SU26

I expect the other versions of the Emil will be paid DLC or in the next expansion.

I hope We'll have modded versions of all Emils within a few weeks of release...

Its imaginary aircraft like this that is the main reason I have never used the mods.

kinda like the difference between a Volkswagen and a 911 Porsche ... among other things the 109F's actually DID have a nose cannon.
