I am finishing up my v3.5 custom OOB set and I wanted to post all of the small little errors I found. I have a whole bunch of them so I am just going to put them in one post so I don't end up spamming the board.

OOB 01 Unit 32, Panzer II has no HE load.

OOB 04 Unit 269, 47mm AT gun, no Fire control and Range finder = 0

OOB 04 Unit 337, coastal arty with fire control of 52!

OOB 11 Unit 226, Il-10 has 4x 20mm cannon, not 2x cannon and 2xMG

OOB 34 Units 770, 771, 773. Units listed as MG42, but have MG34

OOB 40 Unit 19, Generic Chaffee take given 6 pounder instead of 75mm M3

You think this is a "whole bunch" ???

OOB 01 Unit 32, Panzer II has no HE load. FIXED



OOB 04 Unit 269, 47mm AT gun, no Fire control and Range finder = 0




Unit 269 may be an AT gun in your OOB's but it's used as UC 184 " airbourne field howitzer" in mine and field howitzers don't get FC and RF


OOB 04 Unit 337, coastal arty with fire control of 52!


It's 2 in the master v4 OOB's. Maybe you should start with the current OOB set instead of one over a year old ????


OOB 11 Unit 226, Il-10 has 4x 20mm cannon, not 2x cannon and 2xMG

Initial armament of early production models consisted of 2 x 23mm cannons and 2 x 12.7mm machine guns in the wings along with a single 12.7mm machine gun in the rear gunner position. From 1947 onwards, this would be supplanted by a more powerful array of 4 x 23mm cannons and a single 20mm cannon in the rear gunner position.


Since SPWW2 ends in 1946 before the 4 x 23mm cannons were installed they are not appropriate for SPWW2 but would be for SPMBT which I will make a note to look into further

O/OB 34 Units 770, 771, 773. Units listed as MG42, but have MG34- CORRECTED

OOB 40 Unit 19, Generic Chaffee take given 6 pounder instead of 75mm M3 - CORRECTED

It took me longer than I had intended to made my custom OOBs for v3.5 so that's why they are late.

Since SPWW2 ends in 1946 before the 4 x 23mm cannons were installed they are not appropriate for SPWW2 but would be for SPMBT which I will make a note to look into further.

Alright, well the Il-10 still has two cannon and two 7.62mm MG's so those should be changed to 12.7mm.

Here are various quotes from internet sources regarding the armament carried by an IL-10

Initial armament of early production models consisted of 2 x 23mm cannons and 2 x 12.7mm machine guns in the wings
along with a single 12.7mm machine gun in the rear gunner position. From 1947 onwards, this would be supplanted by a
more powerful array of 4 x 23mm cannons and a single 20mm cannon in the rear gunner position.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ilyushin_Il-10from Early Il-10s had two 23 mm VYa-23 autocannons (150 rounds each) and 2 7.62 mm ShKAS machine guns (750 rounds each) fixed in wings, and a 12.7 mm UBT machine gun in a rear gunner station BU-8, with 150 rounds. The horizontal angle of the rear machine gun field of fire was 100°. From 1947, the aircraft were armed with four NS-23 23 mm cannons in the wings (150 rounds each) and 20 mm B-20T cannon in a rear gunner station BU-9 (150 rounds).

http://www.airpages.ru/eng/ru/il10.shtml Its armament was similar to late Il-2s, with two 7.62mm ShKAS machine-guns and two 23mm NS-23 cannon or (four NS-23 cannon)in the wing. The new Il-10 featured a 20mm BT-20 cannon in a rear-facing turret operated by the gunner

http://www.century-of-flight.net/Aviation%20history/photo_albums/timeline/ww2/2/Ilyushin%20Il%2010.htm Armament: Two 7.62 mm (0.30 in) ShKAS machine-guns and either two 23 mm VYa or two 23 mm NS-23 cannon mounted in the wings and one 20 mm UB-20 cannon or 12.7 mm (0.50 in) UBT machine-gun in the dorsal position plus up to 1,102 lbs (500 kg) of bombs and four RS-82 or RS-132 rockets under the wings.

Therefore the Two 7.62 mm are appropriate
