Note: the photo showing a rotary rocket launcher for 6 WGr.21 rockets was only an experiment. The airframe suffered extensive damage from this test and no further tests were done in this configuration.

I have the URL of a site that has cockpit pictures of this aircraft. I've posted them many times, but if you want to see them just holler and I'll post them.

As much as I would like to see Me 410 here, Dora should be top priority.

[Gorf]

I feel that the Dora and the 410 should be released together.  410 would be a GREAT addition to the family at AH. If I had to chose though.. the 410 would come first.  I like how HTC introdueses unique planes to the arena on a regular basis.

I'd like to see the Bf.110G, at least you have a backseat gunner.

Can we say...Buff Hunt?

Maybe after the Dora and the Me-210/410 come into aces high.

Whats a good solid medium fighter with a gunner on it?  I cant really think of any off the top of my head.  The Bf.110s manuverability is unimpressive to say the least, and it has quite a bad rap in the other online flight sims.

are we really gona get these planes , and where the hell is that pic ? had me droolin to se that evil mother!

[Hristo]

Major Tom, 410 had rear gunner too, operating 2 13mm gun barbettes.

And it was a lot better than 110.

But Dora is what Luftwaffe needs now.

Humm, Hristo...410 had better performance, but much less maneouverability...I'd like more to see a 410 than a 110, but a 110 wont hurt, either

If you're lookin for "unique," you gotta have the He-219 Uhu I'd say  

Nightfighter, of course, and no tail gunner, but still purty durn cool, I reckon...

Mossie is a way better plane hands down.

Perk it.

Of course, just kidding  

Bring Mosquito, I am already missing it.

(to kill it I mean  )
