Henschel Hs 129 B-3 (Weapons DLC)

The Henschel Hs 129 was a late WW2 attack aircraft used by the Luftwaffe and both the Hungarian and Romanian air forces. This specific variation of the 129 was the B-3 variant. While the B-2 variants were able to use 30 and 37 mm cannons, the B-3 was given the Bordkanone 75 mm anti tank cannon. This was considered to be the most powerful forward-firing weapon ever fitted to a production aircraft during WW2. So why did I build this plane? Well who wouldn't want to fire a 75 mm gun from a flying steel tub?

There are some, from what I have seen, unfixable, problems. However, if you can think of a solution I would be more than happy to try it. As for the issues, here are the ones that I have discovered:
- Enclosed cockpit (The build limit around the seat is too large to fit a top or sides)
- HUD (The shape of the front windscreen does not allow for the HUD to be placed inside, and the HUD is a massive eyesore on the outside)
- Machine Gun Ammo (The machine guns can only be reloaded with ammo boxes meaning that mid flight reloading is not possible for both machine guns and ammo count is limited to 50 rounds per gun)

Aside from that the plane is, in my opinion, quite easy and enjoyable to fly (and shoot). The plane has a range of around 40 km when cruising and carries 20 rounds in the main cannon. This creation does make use of some modded blocks to get the right angle at the back, but other than that the aircraft is vanilla.

- Side Note* The main cannon needs to be loaded before firing so just hold down space for about 4-5 seconds with the main cannon selected.
