The main drawback of the MG FF was its ballistic performance.
Being very different from the 7.92mm MG 17 light machine guns installed on the same aircraft, the cumulative effect of concentrated fire was lost.
The MG 151 was soon enlarged to 20mm caliber and quickly replaced the 15mm design.

Because the engine-mounted MG FF continued to suffer from a variety of problems, the cannon was removed on some D-1s, while the machine gun ammo was increased to 1000 rpg.
Initially the E-1 was armed with two 7.9 mm MG 17 machine guns in the cowl with 1000 rpg and two MG 17s in the wings with 420 rpg, but the wing-mounted MG 17s were quickly replaced with 20 mm MG FF cannons with 60 rpg, which provided a heavier weight of fire.
Returning to the D-3 configuration, a pair of 20 mm MG FF cannons with 60 rpg, resulting in a small bulge on the undersides of the wings to accomodate the ammunition drum.

 MG FF cannon - Biocrawler   (Site not responding. Last check: )
The MG FF was a drum-fed 20 mm aircraft cannon developed in 1936 by Oerlikon and license-produced in Germany.
The MG FF and FF/M saw widespread use in Fighters like Me109E, early Me109F, Me110 C to F and Fw190A-2 to A-5 as well as in some bombers like Do 217, He 111 and many other aircraft.
It was often replaced with the 20 mm Mg 151/20 during 1943 but saw a come-back as primary Schräge Musik gun in the Me 110 night fighters as it perfectly fits into the rear cockpit.

The 20mm MG FF was developed by Ikaria of Germany in 1936 as a derivitive of the Swiss Oerlikon FF F cannon, which was license-produced in Germany.
The MG FF/M was a variant developed to fire a high explosive mine shell (Minengeschoss) that featured a projectile with thinner walls with a greater explosive capacity.
The projectile was lighter and developed less recoil than standard rounds and the recoil mechanism had to be adjusted to compensate.

 The WWII Fighter Gun Debate   (Site not responding. Last check: )
The MG FF/M version fired a smaller round with a higher muzzle velocity, but it was still a short-range weapon, and its ballistic characteristics were very different from those of the 7.92mm machineguns installed on the same fighters (mainly Bf 109E).
From the end of 1940 onwards the MG FF was replaced by the excellent Mauser MG 151/20 cannon, derived from the 15mm MG151.
Examples of the second approach are the MG FF and MG 17 weapons of the Bf 109E, the two.50 and four.303 Brownings of the early P-51, or the two 20mm cannon and two 7.7mm guns in the A6M2.

The FF was intubated (breathing tube inserted into the trachea) and proper tube placement was confirmed via auscultation of bilateral breath sounds and end-tidal carbon dioxide testing, a secondary technological test consistent with American Heart Association protocols.
The FF was certified as a Fire Fighter 1, Fire Officer 1, and at the awareness level for hazardous materials.
The FF had also been prescribed Percocet® (5 mg oxycodone with 325 mg acetaminophen), last filled in October 2004 and Oxycontin® (oxycodone HCl) 10 mg, which was last filled in December 2004.

 Oerlikon FF - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The FF were a series of 20 mm autocannon introduced by Oerlikon in the late 1920s.
The FF series served as the inspiration for many World War II 20 mm cannon, including the French, British and US Hispano-Suiza HS.404, the German MG FF, and the Japanese Type 99 cannon.
The FF F was licensed by the Japanese and produced as the Type 99-1, along with the FF L as the Type 99-2.

 Messerschmitt BF-109
The D-2 was armed with two MG 17 in the wings, and the D-3 with two 20 mm MG FF cannon in the wings.
The MG FF/M used a new and improved type of explosive shell, called MinengeschoB (or 'mine-shell') which was made by drawn steel (the same way brass cartridges are made) instead of being cast as was the usual practice.
The new shell required modifications to the MG FF's mechanism due to the different recoil char- acteristics, hence the MG FF/M. The canopy was also revised to an easier to produce, "squared-off" design, and stayed fairly unchanged until the G-10.

It looks like the MG FF/M is missing, that's the MG FF modified to fire the Minengeschoss (Mine-shell).
Due to changes to the recoil mechanism the FF/M was not able to fire the heavier FF rounds and vice versa.
The MG 81s were feed by 150 round per gun in that emplacement.

 Messerschmitt Bf 109 - Germany
Some E models were equipped with four MG 17s, and the remainder were equipped with two MG 17s in the fuselage and two MG FF cannons in the wing roots.
The Bf 109E-3 had a provision for a 20-mm MG FF cannon firing through the prop spinner, however the cannon had proved unreliable, due to overheating, and was seldom used operationally.
The fact that the Bf 109 had too limited a range to be fully effective as a bomber escort, persuaded the German authorities to consider the type most useful as a defensive fighter in Europe.

 WW2 Warbirds: the Messerschmitt Bf 110 Zerstörer - Frans Bonné
The MG FF cannons were replaced by other MG FF cannons that were smaller, and some fairings that were necessary with the old guns could be removed now.
Armament was increased with 2 × 0.312 inch (7,92 mm) MG 17 fixed rearward-firing guns in the sides of the rear fuselage, and had provisions for 2 droptanks with a capacity of 66 or 198 Imp gal (79 or 238 US gal, 300 or 900 liters) under the outer wing panels.
To compensate for the extra weight of the installation the MG 151/20 cannon had to be removed, however, and even so the mass and drag of the 37 mm gun installation degraded the Bf 110G-2/R1’s greatly, which made the type a very easy prey for the escort fighters that began to appear in growing numbers.

Moving on to the wing assembly, I started by removing the kit's integrated flaps and ailerons for later replacement with aftermarket parts.
The previously mentioned Verlinden set included the ammunition containers for the fuselage-mounted MG 151s, so I also went about opening the appropriate covers in the wing lower centre section.

 THE BATTLE OF BRITAIN
The 7.9mm cartridge was slightly more powerful than the.303's although it is difficult to make direct comparisons as the bullet weight and muzzle velocity varied according to loading (and the round was improved early in the war with the even more powerful v-Munition).
The Bf 109E-1, which was still in service in some numbers at the start of the Battle, also had two more 7.9mm MG 17s in the wings with 500 rpg, giving 25 seconds' firing.
This compensated to some extent for their poor defensive armament, which consisted of hand-aimed 7.92mm MG 15 guns in single mountings.
