I am as well. I would love to know why it was deleted. If the mod who did so could PM me if for no other reason than I know what went wrong and can try to not let it happen again.

Excellent news!!!!!

Up to six guns on the Dolphin. Imagine the power! Imagine the weight! Imagine the drag!

Sounds like a great option for blasting Gothas out of the sky.

The Dolphin shouldn't (and probably won't) be able to mount six guns at once. Historically, new Dolphins arrived with four guns fitted, two vickers and two lewis pointing up at an angle. Most pilots removed both lewis guns, while some retained one. 87 Squadron, removed the lewis guns from the cockpit and mounted them on the lower wing firing forward but these couldn't be reloaded in flight.

The real beast is going to be the modifed Bristol F2B F.II that can be fitted with an extra two lewis guns on top of the wing. That gives three guns firing fowards and two firing backwards! The Albatros D.II should be pretty interesting too with an overwing mounted 20mm Becker cannon!

Should the D.III really have an overwing Lewis? Or is this an error.

It would be nice to have only one lewis on the Dolphin (ie. a three gun configuration) - this shouldn't be too hard. I also wonder if the HP O/400 twin gun option will add a new turret (double mount) or give the plane an additional crew-member...!

I'm quite afraid of the Beckers! But this new system would be great for some of the early war two-seaters (Morane L or F.E.2 both had many different options)! Here's to hoping...

The d2 will make a fun ground attack plane but it wont be good for shooting down bombers or 2 seaters or combat since it is already slow and added drag will mean even a snail will extend away and that is on a good day.

Le Prieur rockets!

All our prières are being heard, way to go 777Studios!

well, it doesn't seem unreasonable to me that a German pilot might have a lewis mounted as a trophy, and for a little extra kick.
