this never - built, custom designed schnellbomber i dreamed up in 30 seconds is an entry to SCP1471's ww2 bomber challenge. i hope its legal. put into service in late 1945 after the eastern-front counterattack to help relieve the pressure on hitlers eastern border, the Do - 317 Scharmtzler ( skirmisher ) is a fast and manuverable fighter bomber used to both sweep the skies of aircraft and bombard both infantry and tank divisions qs a sort of flying artillery. despite a wide array of armamaents avaliable, the most popular was a single large bomb that was simple yet effective. before flying this craft, make sure that before bomb release you put vtol up to the top, as this slows the aircraft for stable bombing and opens the bay, bombing with it closed will not go well. in my opinon, the bay and engine exhausts count as quirky features, and it uses a fairly convetional but advanced layout.
