Per the rules, subtypes are considered separate aircraft for the frame. We will have to pick one or the other. Fighter V fighter, G-6 is kilometers better to the RVI.
This is a quote from the Series Rules.
"9. Squad Aircraft - each squad may be assigned a\c steps that are relative to their special roles. A list is provided of eligible a/c types in the A/C table.
It should be noted that LW players may switch between the 109G6 or 109G6/R6 during the same frame, this is the only a/c that may break the 1 a/c type rule. It is to simulate the possible conversion of Rüstsätze in the field allowing the various Bf109 Geschwaders to fly a mix of a/c on any given day."
This happens every so often, usually in late war series.
I did not expect the 109G6R6 to do fighter v fighter. I would only add the pod if the fighter escort and bombers were scattered all over the map.
