But it's surely not that precise on the other hand

if it's A-8 the outer cannons are definitely too short. They have length of MGFF. Another thing is that outer MGFF in early fw190's (A-4; A-5) where often removed by field mechanics because they weren't much helpful, they bothered more.

Thats true

I could imagine, that the sniper gets K98, G43 or scoped STG44 (it would be great, if he could choice the rifle), the storm soldier gets a STG44, G43 or K98 (like I've said - choicing would be very nice!) and the engineer gets always the K98.

I imagine the G43 will be available for the Rifleman class only and the StG44 will only be available as pickup kits. This is similar to the way it was in FH1 and it also reflects the rarity of these weapons. None of the new weapons have been exported yet those, so it's still up for discussion.

Welcome new devs! Nice FW.

The FH1 way for rare weapons was fine IMO.( Although there were too much G43 on Ramelle and Foy, and too much StG's on Berlin).

Stubbfan found some images that suggest the model is actually an A-8/R2 which apparently has shorter outer mg's than the regular A-8. So that means the model, save perhaps for the skin as mentioned earlier, is accurately represented.

that can be, A-8/R2 had MK 108 as outer cannons, which are actually shorter than MG 151/20 near the fuselage. But that means we've got 3 different guns on our fw, each different magazine capacity (I think it's the main problem). I'm not sure if bf2 allows us to code only up to 2 different weapons opereted by one player... of course we can choose the weapon we want to fire (1,2,3 etc. buttons), but all guns in fw190 could be fired at once, so I think it's not the solution. Can I please bf2 coder comment here? Ctz?
