I think there is also an anomaly with the compass of the cockpit of the FW Ta-183 ( all versions ) , also used by the Messerschmitt Me P.1101 .
The arrow of the dial shows always " O " ( " Ost "  , which means " East " ) .

There is an anomaly on the Vought AU-1 .
The cockpit view shows an antenna on the hull in front of the cockpit .



But the external view don't show this antenna

Yep, AU-1 comes without a dedicated cockpit but share the same with other Corsairs.
It is what it is, we keep using mods in modpacks as-is and modify things as we see fit.
This one hasn't been touched yet.

The Luftwaffe  has several kinds of bombs, named with letters :
SC
SD
AB
SB
PC
What is the purpose of each kind of bomb , please ?

[SAS~Storebror]

SC = Sprengbombe Cylindrisch (general purpose bomb)
SD = Sprengbombe Dickwandig (semi-armour piercing bomb)
PC = Panzerbombe Cylindrisch (armour piercing bomb)
AB = Abwurfbehälter (Bomblet Container)
SB = Spezialbombe (Special Device), e.g. "Luftmine" (Blockbuster), "Heisenberg-Gerät" (Nuke)

The number is the fully loaded device of the bomb in total, including explosives, bomblets etc., in Kilograms.

Some american planes , like the F-80 A and F-80 C , have a compass displaying two kinds of needles : a single needle and a double needle .




In correct situation , the single needle should show the heading of the plane , and the double needle should be set by the pilot to lock a beacon .
But there is an anomaly with the F-80 A and the F-80 C , because the double needle shows the heading and the single needle  shows just a random beacon :
