This thread is eternally popping up, so punting it is better than starting over. I'd love to see a re-modelled Stuka now that CT is off the agenda. :aok: It would great fun for bashing GV hordes. With a steady aim it might even be possible to joust weeble wobbles

I was thinking about the plane set for eastern front scenarios. Ju87 with bombs and no guns (not even 2x20mm of D5) and IL2 with big effective guns but no bombs? Will be fun in trying to balance it...  :rolleyes:

The Germans have already have a good air to ground plane, two of the actually: the Fw190F-8 and Bf110G-6.  The F-8 with its 12 rockets, 550kg bomb (1k lbs), and dual 20mm can do a gv or two in quite easily.  The 110G with its dual 30mm, dual 20mm, 7.92mm MG's, and dual bombs (550kg) can make any gv's day a bad one.

I do agree though.. that adding in the Stuka with the 37mm tank busters would be fun.  It would be much like the Hurricane IID I'm sure, but with German markings.  :D

The Bf.110G2 is incapable of killing tanks once it's dropped it's bombs. It was designed for the heavy fighter role (anti-bomber), so all the cannons fire HE rounds which are pretty ineffective vs. tanks. TBH I prefer the Ju87, Ju88 and Fw190F8 for Jabo work.

High AoA should amount to a 1 shot-two round kill.

The D-3 was the first model not to have the dive siren.  The sirens were removed from the D-3 and onward.

IIRC, the G-3 was non-existant.

The video with the dive siren is a Ju87B.
