The inferior capabilities of these fighters against the Mosquitoes made this a hopeless and uneconomical effort. 1.JD KTB

"Looks like a sleeve valve engine as there does not appear to be any push rods."

Agreed. Skua MkII to be precise.

BMW801 has a totally different cylinder head and it is a two row (14Cyl) engine.

Think this topic belongs in the Aces High Bug Reports section of the forum.

Its what happens when you ditch your 190 in the water and goes AFK for too long. The game really should boot you when you have been inactive for that long.

Um
The 190 has a very prominent cooling fan right behind the propeller that looks like jet turbine blades. There is no way thats a 190.

I agree it looks like a 190 to me.

its not a 190, the prop is way too long and narrow for a 190

Could that belong to a A-20 or Boston III?  it is kind of hard to tell how big that is with out having a scale next to it.

This is a skua the engine is a dead give away by the 2 ovals at 11 and 1 oclock behind the prop seen in the underwater picture and the picture of it in flight.
