Humm... maybe an 'H' is next?:kilroy:


And not to be a rivet counter, but didn't the 'G' only have two .50cal machine guns along with the 75mm cannon up front?
 
B25 G with a 75 mm...!? Nice I wonder if it can be backed into a revetment by firing that bad boy? Thanks Guys.
 
You gents have really gone 'Above and Beyond....' on these Mitchells!:rapture:

Maybe this is a B25H which had four and side guns but then the H had no copilot and a tail gun turret with two 50's so maybe this is a G/H,,,,,,or maybe:Banane44:!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks again TR... she's deadly beautiful ! :applause:
 
I did not want to ask for this version, because we should already be more than happy with the already done versions - BUT: The G-type with the shorter nose was definitely missing in our virtual heavens.

Thanks for filling this gap!!
 
We really have been spoilt by TR and Sopwith. Thanks so much gentlemen, I may have been a bit silent lately but Woohoo!

Well, yes and no. Originally the 75mm cannon was supplemented with just two .50 Browning machine guns in the nose but as combat experience proved the latter to be inadequate, two more nose guns were added. If I'm not mistaken these modifications to the existing B-25Gs were recommended by... yes you've guessed... Pappy Gunn and made at Townsville. I'm not sure but some B-25Gs may have been uparmed with even more guns in blister packs on fuselage sides.
