Some Interesting German Planes

[spit16nooby]

I've been looking through wikipedia for a few hours and have read about some interesting German planes we could add to help flesh out their bomber/attacker set.  The brief perfomance will be posted and then the link.  I think these planes would match the requirement for a plane to be added into the game considering more than 1000 of each were produced and that they would in no way be totally unbalancing(B-29 for example).

1.Junkers Ju 188  This would be an interesting plane.  It is like a souped up Ju-88 that is faster with better armament.

General characteristics
Crew: 5
Length: 15 m (49 ft 1 in)
Wingspan: 22 m (72 ft 2 in)
Height: 4.4 m (14 ft 7 in)
Wing area: 56 m² (603 ft²)
Empty weight: 9,900 kg (21,825 lb)
Loaded weight: 14,500 kg (31,967 lb)
Powerplant: 2× 1 BMW 801 G-2, 1,250 kW (1,700 PS) each

Performance
Maximum speed: 499 km/h (310 mph)
Range: 2,190 km combat (1,360 miles)
Service ceiling 9,500 m (31,170 ft)
Wing loading: 258.9 kg/m² (53.0 lb/ft²)
Power/mass: 0.175 kW/kg (0.106 hp/lb)

Armament
Guns:
1 × MG 151 20 mm cannon
3 × MG 131 13 mm machine gun
Bombs:
3,000 kg (6,600 lbs)                            http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Junkers_Ju_188

2. Messerschmitt Me 410        I don't know how much of a chance this stands to get in because of the 110 but it seems like it would be a great mission plane.  Notice the speed( I'm guessing not at typical MA alts so would probably be around 340-350) that would give the speed of the mosquito and the loadout of a 110.

Service ceiling 10,000 m (32,810 ft)

up to 1,000 kg (2,204 lb) of disposable stores                        http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Messerschmitt_Me_410


3. He 111    Of course what would a German bomber request be without this .  Why it would be wanted has been said thousands of times.

Crew: 5 (pilot, navigator/bombardier, nose gunner, ventral gunner, dorsal gunner)
Length: 16.4 m (54 ft 6 in)
Wingspan: 22.5 m (74 ft 3 in)

up to 2,000 kg (4,409 lb) carried internally (eight 250 kg max), or:
up to 2,500 kg (5,512 lb) on two external racks                           http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/He-111



There are many more interesting planes such as the He-177 which is like the Ju-188 which would be nice at this link   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_World_War_II_military_aircraft_of_Germany.  HTC please look at these planes or the planes in the above link.    I would be grateful for all comments and suggestions.

i love it

All 3 have been asked for many, many times.  There's almost an He 111 obsession among some of us, and of the 3 you list it's certainly the biggest hole in our plane set.
