the german hornet

The me 410 b-2/u2/r4 was a heavy firepower subvariant of the me 410 hornet fighter-bomber. Like most german fighters at the mid to late stages of wwii, its air-to-air firepower was strengthened as per the requirement of the luftwaffe which found that their aircrafts air-to-air weapons were not powerful enough. This fighter was modified to carry a gun pod with two 20mm mg 151 cannons in the bomb bay instead of bombs. Meanwhile, it could still carry wgr rockets under the wings and also kept all air-to-air weapons of the basic me 410 version. Sometimes an external gun pod with two 20mm mg 151 cannons was carried under the belly of the me 410 b-2/u2. Because of its strong firepower, it s widely used by the luftwaffe in the high altitude interception operations
