To be honest though, I would probably have supported your wish if it wasn't for the fact that you have come across as such a tool. You clearly have some issues and have been irrational to anyone making a response. Next time you come up with a good wish, leave the attitude at the door and people might support it.
So, you agree with the idea but out of spite you wont support it? And you dare to call me a tool? Oh the irony...
Then you freely admit that anything you deem productive in this thread is a waste of your and everyone else's time? Pity.
I was actually hoping you'd transition from petulance to productive. By the way, all sources I've seen on the 177 appear to
indicate that, historically, it never managed to make it to impressive status. The Do.217 would be a nice addition. But I'm still
not seeing a crisis over the 111 being modeled first. My regrets that it annoys you so.
*Sigh*
This is why I asked before if it was clear enough, you are a bit lost. The point was to add a para version of the He-111, the rest was chat.
The Luftwaffe had no significant sustained bombing efforts after 1942 and the production numbers of its later bombers are consequently low.
The Russian and even the Maltese would likely disagree. Production was low because the Do-217 and He-111 were on low rate production waiting to be replaced by the He-177, which failed to materialize in time. Same for the 188, it was a stop gap until the failed Ju-288 was introduced, so it and the vainilla Ju-88 remained on production... for the lowly figure of 10.000 units, add fighter and other variants and you get 15.000.
The Do217, Ju188 and He177 are MA fodder for players who won't fly anything other than German aircraft. The Luftwaffe situation is not comparable to the USAAF or RAF being without the B-17/B-24 and Lancaster. See the difference?
You missed the point.
Manchester never worked and was rapidly withdrawn from service with the RAF suggesting that Avro build Halifaxes instead.
As noted above a mid war bomber for the Germans is really just MA fodder for the subset of players who refuse to fly anything that isn't German. That doesn't mean it shouldn't be added, but it does significantly reduce its priority.
Just, no.
the ju-88 could have been produced in twice the numbers as the bf-109 and that still would not have made it as much of an iconic war time image as the he-111, p-40, b-17, bf-109, a6m zero, p-51 or the spitfire.
even movie studios from the 60s were more aware of what iconic was...

Hehe, man you are a blast! Now you are bringing Hollywood and its movies a "proof"? Lol! Could you be any sillier? And Im sure the election of the He-111 had nothing, absolutely nothing to do with the fact the He-111 family was still alive back then in Spain as the CASA 2.111. I bet you didnt even find anything odd with the "Bf-109s"!
But this actually reinforces my point, to think that the He-111 is THE iconic bomber of the LW you clearly need to have a "movie knowledge" of WW2 and avoid books like the plague!
Here, my contribution to your knowledge of WW2.
