Just a variation on a theme…
Based on my earlier “desert” He 111. Variants of the He 111 were used in anti-shipping roles, in both the Atlantic and the Mediterranean. This one’s a very dark green (no, not quite black) for night operations, and comes equipped with Fug-200 radar and a couple of torpedoes.
With thanks to @mustang51 for rightly pointing out that the original was somewhat too nimble for a WWII bomber –this version responds to controls with a bit less fervor.
Controls are much the same as in the original, except for AG6/7 (bomb release) which are now replaced by SP's standard controls for dropping the fish.
Happy sinking..!

@SimplyPlain Why not? I personally like the flying wing design, myself. Just asking, no offense.
@VVMC well... they're not exactly my favorite planes. So that would have to be a big "maybe" -whenever I'm out of inspiration. Thanks for the suggestion though.
So what do you think about my build suggestion on making the Northrop N-1B and the YB-49?
@VVMC minus the elaborate nose art of course ;)
Noice
Reminds me of Motörhead’s’ Bomber album cover.
@asteroidbook345 working on it ;)
