I thought that the Ju-88 was considered a heavy bomber in German eyes. You see, different countries have different definitions of "Heavy Bomber."

THe HE177 can carry up to 13000 pounds. The ju88 isnt close to that!

First off noob the plane sucked. It's Engines failed and most crashed becuz of engine fails. The plane wasnt "Mass used". Only about 300 saw service and half didnt even fly a whole sortie before the engines gave.

Major waste of time jolly.

So? I wasn't making a point about how much ordnance the Ju-88 or the He-177. I was correcting the incorrect statement of warphoenix, which was, "ok the axis don't have any heavy bombers exept the jap heavy bomber and there giant targets you might aswell put a bullseye on them and tell the allies to shoot them................. +1 for the idea." Your point is entirely unrelated to my post.
