You could however go for four Hispanos and two .50s if you mounted the .50s in the engine cowling like the various hawks. That would be quite a combination or four .50s and two Hispanos.

But what about ammo, I think it's better to have maybe 2x20mm in wings ... 120 rounds for cannon and 2x12,7mm in the engine cowling like Blackbuck said with 250-300 round. That will give you a fighter with weapons on pair with Spitfire Mk XIV and Me-109.

You could if it's anything like the Spit's universal wing get four Hispanos in with 150~200rds per gun

Yeah you can have 4 cannons, but in 1941 "all cannons" fighter was not a popular idea. Most of them use machine guns as primary weapon and one or two cannons as secondary, first spit have how many ... 8 MG?

I've adjusted the armament to 2 x 20mm and 2 x 12.7mm in the wings and I'll go with 4 x 20mm in the wings for the Mk.2 version coming soon :)

Totally spiffing! I would imagine you'd see some of them in the three colour SEAC scheme as well as the RAAF style scheme as well?

Looks awesome! Would the RDCAF be utilizing these during WW2?

Thanks guys! I've been contemplating some export versions so you will probably see them in the future, and feel free to use it for the RDCAF Night :)
