It would become the new CV killer for one reason, other wise this thing accomplished a lot of nothing and fell apart a lot for all the man hours and money Germany threw at it.

They typically carried two 1,800 kg  (3,970 lb) and two 1,000 kg (2,200 lb) bombs.

Airjer would be in woody heaven popping up out of the water with one of these next to a CV. Hitech would create his version without all the technical problems so with it's speed, it would make a good solo greifing bomber. Not as maneuverable as the Tu2 in the game but, once mastered, it has the ability to shallow dive away and run with speed just like the Tu2.

There are a few AC that were not exactly stellar in terms of reliability, but yet they are still here. Besides the only German Bombers in game are early war dinosaurs that have little use outside of Scenarios. Maybe assign a small perk penalty or what not.

You are looking at later variants of the Ju 88 and the Ju 188. I hope when the Ju 88 is finally updated, it has a stable of sound later variants to choose from. That might create some interesting greifing.

You mean the JU188 and DO217? I don't think the HE177 would be used to grief CVs to much, their crap rate of climb would deter some players from doing so.
