| − | The Bf 110 G-4 is a fighter-interceptor and a CAS plane, with its payload it can destroy different enemies like heavy tanks, light vehicles, but also big ships, and it is very good against enemy bombers.
| + | <!-- ''Tell us about the tactical and technical characteristics of the cannon or machine gun.'' --> |
| − | | + | The 75 mm SA50 L/57 is a powerful gun. It is equipped with an autoloader (except on the [[M4A4 (SA50)]]), which gives it a competitive reload time. The combat vehicles equipped with this weapon have a high penetrating power for their battle rating, with the exception of the [[AMX-13 (HOT)]], which gets a comparatively high BR due to being equipped with second-generation ATGMs. |

| − | The Bf 110 G-4 is a very robust and resistant aircraft, like the rest of the 110 series. It can withstand hits of up to 20 mm calibre cannons without problems, obviously depending on where it is hit, for example if it is hit the engines or tanks, let's say that it will not resist much because they are critical points of the aircraft. The level of survival is also very good, the "vital" area of the aircraft is all in the middle, fuel tanks and crew. As we find 3 members, the pilot and the two gunners, a tail gunner and a gunner for the cannons positioned above the aircraft.

| | | | |
| − | One of the most convenient and effective payloads for the Bf 110 G-4 is the two 20 mm cannons and the two 500 kg bombs. The two MG 151s are super effective to fight other aircraft for example in frontal attacks or to cause serious damage to bombers. With these two additional cannons you will be able to perform an important task of air superiority, but thanks to these 20 mm you will also be able to do a great job as CAS. With the two 500 kg bombs feel free to use them as you wish, you can use them against everything, from bombing bases, to bombing ships and tanks. You can even use them to get an enemy off your tail by going low to the ground and dropping them, the 500 kg bomb is powerful enough to do critical damage to light aircraft following you.

| |
| − | | |
| − | The defensive armament is positioned behind the pilot's cabin and consists of two [[MG 81 (7.92 mm)|MG 81 7.92 mm machine guns]] with an excellent rate of fire of 1600 rounds/min and thanks to this rate of fire you can cause extensive damage to bombers and enemy aircraft that are in the rear. The best belt to use is '''AP-T''', with two AP-I and two AP-T rounds.

| − | [[File:Bf 110 G-4 (Italy) in a dive.png|thumb|Nosedive on two panthers]]
| + | Thanks to the high penetrating power of the gun, vehicles equipped with this weapon can attack all but the most resilient enemies head-on. The short reload time can be used to compensate for the low damage effect of the AP grenades through fast follow-up shots to take out targets quickly. As with all tanks equipped with an autoloader, however, it takes a long time to reload after it has been depleted, so it is highly recommended to remove the tank from the direct line of sight of the enemy during longer firefights in order to refill magazines. |
| − | The Bf 110 G-4 is an excellent aircraft to perform almost any task. It can be used to defend allied bombers, or it can simply act as a support aircraft thanks to its two rear machine guns. It is an excellent aircraft to destroy ground targets and provide cover for allied tanks, but it can also be used as a heavy fighter and thus provide air superiority in a very effective way, if accompanied by some fighters. It is recommended to use it according to the needs of the team. If the squadron needs more of a CAS aircraft, the various payload options allow it to perform the task as a CAS aircraft, if bombers need cover then do not equip external payload and gain the necessary altitude to fight. It is a very versatile aircraft to play. | |

| − | The [[Bf 110 (Family)|Messerschmitt Bf 110]] was developed, starting in the second half of the 1930s, to provide the Luftwaffe with a twin-engine heavy fighter capable of long-range deployment and capable of performing multi-role missions of fighter, tactical bomber, and close support. | + | The 75 mm SA50 was developed to fulfil a requirement for a 75 mm anti-tank gun to be mounted on the [[ARL-44]]. Although it was never adopted for this role, it was later standardized and mounted on the [[AMX-13]], among other designs. The development team sought a cannon that possessed comparable performance to the German [[KwK42 (75 mm)|75 mm KwK42]], mounted on the [[Panzer V Panther (Family)|Panther]], notably. |
| − | | |
| − | The Bf 110 entered service in 1939 and 1940 with the role of air support to German ground forces, escort fighter, and tactical bomber, then around 1943 the Bf 110 continued to fight and was used as a defense aircraft and interceptor. The Bf 110 had several variants including:
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Bf 110 A
| |
| − | * Bf 110 B
| |
| − | * Bf 110 C ([[Bf 110 C-6]], [[Bf 110 C-7]])
| |
| − | * Bf 110 D
| |
| − | * Bf 110 E
| |
| − | * Bf 110 F ([[Bf 110 F-2]])

| − | * Bf 110 H
| |
| − | | |
| − | [[File:Bf 110 G-4 (Italy) close up.png|thumb|The Bf 110 G-4 seen from the front]]
| |
| − | The Messerschmitt Bf 110 G entered service in May 1942 and was characterized, compared to the previous versions, by the adoption of two 1,475 hp Daimler Benz DB 605 engines capable of allowing the aircraft to reach a speed of 595 km/h. In particular the G-4 version assumed the role of heavy night fighter with the task of countering the Allied bombers' incursions in the skies over Germany. Heavily armed, thanks also to the possibility of installing a gun pod with two [[MK 108 (30 mm)|MK 108 30 mm]] cannons, and equipped with a [[FuG-202|FuG-202 radar system]] optimized for night hunting, it became a valid adversary of the British [[Lancaster B Mk I|Lancaster]] bombers or the American [[B-17 (Family)|B-17]] "Flying Fortresses". | |

| |
| − | The Regia Aeronautica in July 18, 1942 requested Bf 110s from the Luftwaffe to defend Milan and northern cities from Allied bombers. But eventually it received some Bf 110 C-3s which were assigned to the 235a Squadriglia del 41°Stormo B.T., after the formation of the RSI, the Aeronautica Nazionale Repubblicana (ANR) received in the spring of 1944 two Bf 110 G-4/R3 assigned then to the 170a Squadriglia caccia notturna.
