    The YP-38 was recently added to the game! The primary difference between this and the other P-38s is this was a pre-production model used for testing and it is armed with a 37mm Cannon as well as 2 .30cal and 2 .50cal machine guns. The 37mm stayed in the game very early in production but was ultimately changed out for the infamous 20mm the P-38 is known for.

      Cheers Bo. Your mates always give me a laugh whenever I check into your content. If it's too mich to ask, could you try some more low tier Italy? Because the most recent video on the Italian tech tree was the Breda 501. Something like in the M13/40 series (M14/41) or the AB-41?

    @malusignatius Před 4 lety +1

    Sadly, the 'Whispering Death' moniker seems to be a postwar myth. Also the .50 cals were put in the Aussie Mk 21s as much because it was easier for us to source the .50 cals than the British .303 machine guns (because by that point in the war we were getting a lot of materiel from the US instead of the the UK).
