Armament consisted of three 20 mm MG 151 cannon, two in the mid-wing and one in the right fuselage, and five 12.7 mm machine guns, two under each engine [1][usurped], and one remotely controlled in the tail.
During development the maximum speed was increased, but it still did not meet requirements.
It had a complex and advanced structure which contributed to difficulties in producing a working prototype.
The aircraft survived by performing evasive manoeuvres, but it was so badly damaged that it was grounded for months.
