that story has been discussed many times since I've been here and the results every time were a one time chance encounter isn't a combat run for the Do 335.

edit: and going back reading some of those threads that encounter most likely was a test flight with a slight chance of an acceptance flight. there was no where safe air space in Germany to fly prototypes and test planes without the chance of contact with allied forces.

It was a 'run-like Hades' story with a 'whew' ending for the German test pilot if it's the same story I think I kinda recall.  :D

Yet April is the same time the all these 152 are buzzing around    :lol

Thats by all you experts? The fact is we simply do not know...... and 1 chance encounter prolly means there more around <like cops>.

We can see that there was a cannon version with lots of dirt and oil stains, making it more possible than just a prototype wouldnt you say?

Provide evidence of it.  Go on, do it.  Stop asking others to do it and stop asking for others to prove a negative.

I would be speaking out of turn if I tried to guess, if a plane should or could be included, into the game.  That is up to HiTech and Pyro.
so basicly we wont ever get sheep because HiTech got married?  :cry :cry

I'm going off the one and only story I've read of it being sited, unconfirmed and by a pilot that apparently liked to spice up stories, and that single Do 335 only. No other encounters that day mention two, thats an assumption on your part that maybe 1 was in the area and then we can assume it was escorted by He162's while were at it. Find service records of it's operational use is all you have to do. You'd have better luck with the F7F and F8F.


Here is another thread on the Do 335, you can play the part of EVZ.

the thing about the F7F though is it was in a squadron and in route to okinawa from iwo jima the day the japanese surrendered. that that is clearly in service during the second world war. despite what gyrene saying as "active squadron" any squadron in a combat zone is an active squadron.
