Revision as of 06:36, 29 May 2013
Depending on the variant, the Me-109 may also have either a third MG 151/20 or a 30mm MK 108 Motorkanone firing through the propeller hub. There's no way to tell with what we have right now, however. The Me-262 on the poster would also have four MK 108s in the nose. --Funkychinaman 09:43, 6 January 2012 (CST)
B-17G
I think these have 12 guns rather than 13 as other shots from the trailer show there is no radio room gun. Also, does anyone know if it is the case that as these B-17s have staggered and enclosed waist possitions that means they should have the "Cheyenne" tail gun rather than the original "Stinger" tail that is on these planes? --commando552 19:24, 6 January 2012 (CST)
- I thought the Cheyanne tail and the staggered waist guns were standard on all G's. --Funkychinaman 19:28, 6 January 2012 (CST)
- I believe the new tail gun and the staggered waist positions were only introduced on G's made after April 1944. Either way, as the planes in this seem to have staggered waist guns (there is an interior shot of a burning B-17 in the trailer where you can see this) I'm fairly sure the tail position is worng. --commando552 20:12, 6 January 2012 (CST)
Did I spy Han Solo's pistol?
I just saw the movie, and there is a point where there is a soldier, I already can't remember, and he shows of his pistol...something something devastator, or what have you. Before he said that, I thought it was a C96, but on a closer shot, it was done up with a lot of stuff, like Han Solo's C96, has anyone else seen this?
No, that was probly "Ray Gun"'s Buck Rodgers X-38 blaster pistol. I saw an M1919 when the troops land. --Mandolin 19:30, 29 January 2012 (CST)
Amusing Media Billing
I think it's funny how the media seem to be describing this as the first movie depicting this unit, apparently having completely forgotten about The Tuskegee Airmen, which starred at least one of the actors who's in this film. Orca1 9904 20:48, 29 January 2012 (CST)
Well, the 1995 film was HBO, IIRC, so this is the first Hollywood version.--Mandolin 22:35, 29 January 2012 (CST)
Spares
Unknowns
Unknown flare gun
An airman signals takeoff with an unknown flare gun.
- Kampfpistole Z? General outline is the same and in the 1st shot it looks like you can see the release lever under the trigger guard.--commando552 (talk) 04:56, 31 January 2013 (EST)
- Thanks! --Funkychinaman (talk) 08:16, 31 January 2013 (EST)
Unknown AA gun 1
The German airbase is defended by some of these unknown AA guns.
- These look like fake guns assembled on real carriages and stripped-down pivots; you can see one's rusty as hell and the other has a ton of lubricant on it, which I wouldn't think you'd get if you'd just made the things for the production. Evil Tim (talk) 04:06, 31 January 2013 (EST)
- Whew, because I've been driving myself crazy trying to find this thing. --Funkychinaman (talk) 08:16, 31 January 2013 (EST)
- Looking at the one in the foreground in pic 2, it looks like it's partially real, probably some old broken 3.7cm FlaK 43. From the lugs and such on the bottom it looks like it's not all there, and it should be mounted on the left of the two loops rather than in the middle. Barrels look fake, and I think they're on carriages designed for 40mm Bofors guns. Evil Tim (talk) 16:22, 4 February 2013 (EST)
- Whew, because I've been driving myself crazy trying to find this thing. --Funkychinaman (talk) 08:16, 31 January 2013 (EST)
Unknown AA gun 2
The German cruiser, which is referred to a destroyer in the film, defends itself with unknown AA guns. Maybe a 3.7 cm SK C/30?
- In trying to ID the first AA gun, I think I found the second. PLDvK vzor 53? --Funkychinaman (talk) 19:15, 30 January 2013 (EST)
