Luft '46 page about this aircraft
The name on the Luft '46 page is "Fw P.0310.025-1006", but it looks very fishy, because there are loads of planes with drawing number 0310, in many different formats ("03.10206.20", "0310226-127", "P.0310225" etc.)
So now I need a better name, unless you think "Fw P.0310.025-1006" would attract 50 upvotes...
Feel free to suggest in comments, I may either choose your suggestion, or your suggestion may inspire me into something good.
A few clues about this aircraft (and the name that I would prefer):
1. this is likely a heavy fighter ("Zerstörer")
2. The design seems to be for high altitude and bad weather fighting.
3. Germans often use German given names or animal names for aircraft.
4. Many German planes only have a RLM number, but the list seems quite crowded...
Being a pusher, this plane would probably take quite a while to finish, especially given its VERY blueprint-only status.
@vcharng congrats, you did the exact same job Focke-Wulf engineers must have done 75y ago
@WarHawk95 I fixed it, and thanks to this change, now this plane turns a lot better.
@WarHawk95 Yeah I noticed that the horizontal stablizer does NOT show up in the front ortho view.... probably have to re-design...
If I saw the blueprints clearly, you made a mistake on the design. Actually the elevators, through the sharp things on their tips, seem to continue to the wings, so the final thing shoul look like a DH Vampire whose fork tail would have been sortened.
IDK if you'll se what I mean...
FWP-0310
Looks good!

@AircraftoftheRedStar Originally I plan on giving it a more clear, appealing name and put the drawing number behind it.
For example, "Folke-Wulf Fw Schlechtwetterjäger auf As 413 (P.0310.025-1006)"
That bunch of German means "Bad weather fighter based on As 413 (engine), it fits all the description known on Luft 46.
Lol look at my Yak-6. I had to do something like that. There is a shortcut to it through my aircraft directory.
@vcharng
@AircraftoftheRedStar Judging from other Luft 46 entries it looks like P.0310 blah blah blah is just a drawing number anyway...
I would keep it’s original name since it is a replica, and changing it would technically remove the replica status.
