Some quick facts: Powerplant: 2 Junkers Jumo 109-004B-1 Orkan (Hurricane) turbojets. Speed: 461mph@19,685ft./438mph@sea level. Armament: 2 Defensive aft firing fuselage mounted 15.1mm MG 151 or 20mm MG151/20 cannons with 250/200 rounds per gun respectively. Offensive bomb load 2,204lbs/3,307lbs with rocket assist "drop" motors. Range: based on previous corresponding bomb loads 1,013 miles/684 miles. It had a high ceiling and was a very advanced plane to include a fully functional pilot ejection seat system. If needed or wanted I have all the rest of the specs as well. It's just you never hear about this one because it wasn't as "exciting" as the Me-163 KOMET (COMET) or the Me-262 SCHWALBE (SWALLOW).

Let me know in the meantime I think I'll check into something elsewhere.

Regards,
Pat

It does indeed. I used the B and C models. The C model has four jet engines instead of two. Nice payloads as well.

I also included the He. 343, the Ar. 560 ("4" and "11" config.) and the Ju. 132. Also the post-war Ju. 150 (IRL: Junkers EF-150) makes an appearance along with an extrapolated design: Ju. 152/II/4 (IRL: Junkers EF-152).

The problem with this is neither Shrapnel Games nor Camo Workshop are "presenting" this mod in any way other than providing a space for discussions about it in our mods sub forum, so it is both inaccurate and misleading to suggest we are "presenting" it

Apologies. Here's a fixed version without the "presenting" splash screen.

LINK to V2 of Splash Screens

I also rearranged some of the MCPPic used for the GAME OPTIONS program so that you can read the text better on each screen.

Agreed. I didn't catch that the first time around. Just saw the tanks. Best just attribute it to the modder.

Suggestion for next release:

Clone OBAT44 after you're done making the "master" copy into OBAT42, so that Luftwaffe Paratroopers, etc can be selected as CAPTURED or ALLIED for scenarios dated 1/1946 to 5/1949.

And here's something for the Mountain troops; the Fa.223Z (or Fa.223Da); which was "Plan B" for heavy VTOL lifting from 1943 onwards apparently, when the original "Plan A", the Fa 284 kind of sputtered out.

Link to site on Fa 284

The Fa284 would have been powered by two BMW 801 at 1,600 hp each for 3,200 hp total, for a maximum liftoff weight of 12,000 kg and an empty weight of 8,165 kg; for a payload of about 2,000 kg. A later development apparently upgraded the engines to 2,000 hp each, raising MTOW to 16,000 kg and freight load to 7,000 kg.

I'd rather not do that. I'm trying to leave as small a footprint outside of 35 and 44 as possible. Also 42 contains a few useful units itself - monitors, 88s, Cavalry.

At the moment the easiest way around this problem is simply to set the scenario up in late 1949 - buy the units needed from OOB 44 and then when your done reset the dates to what you actually wanted.

What the heck is that thing? Looks like a "Drache" on steroids!

I think the Fa. 284 is more aesthetically pleasing. Would you mind awfully making one or should I have a go at it? I'm pleased we found these because they compliment the regular transport helicopters I already have really well. There was a gap there and now its been closed.

Then there's the FA 283 an apparent jet powered gyrodyne, which could be used as the basis for a series of German light utility/attack helicopters in the 1960s.
