Armament?[edit]

The article states that the Arado Ar 240 was armed with two fixed 7.92 mm MG 17's but the German source http://www.luftarchiv.de/index.htm?/flugzeuge/arado/ar240.htm lists the fixed armament as four 20 mm MG 151's. Two rifle-caliber machine guns seem rather weak for the main armament of a heavy fighter!--Death Bredon (talk) 09:38, 11 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
