I know this is an old thread but im trying to get some answers as well. I did i see two drawings in here that show the gun pod firing rearward, also i looked at pastor john of AIMS conversion kit, his conversion has the pod firing backwards as well. . . while ive read it fired forward does anyone have an answer seems that i may have fired rearward, also the plane DID have a periscope . maybe for this reason? apparently Luftwaffe Experten message board has pictures and things of the Ju 88 H but i cant join and the info is for members only. does anyone have any answers or know john at AIMS?
