Dr. Vogt presented the design for the ' Emergency Fighter Progam" in Feb 1945.The design impressed the panel so much that although the Focke-WulfTa 183 was chosen for production, three prototypes of the BV 212 were ordered with construction begininng just as Germany faced the last few weeks of the war.
This airframe would have made a huge difference, if the time was permitted for it to be delivered. I think that it would be a great addition to the ACE's High line up, and I am sure that it will make a difference in the game play, just don't perk it way too high. This thing will put the 262 to shame.
Thanks for ya time
