(Some Luft'46 fluff)
In 1944, Focke-Wulf created three designs for a bomber using two Heinkel-Hirth He S 011 turbojets. These bombers were known under the name of the 1000x1000x1000 Bomber-Projekt and were under the direction of Dipl.-Ing. H. von Halem and D. Küchemann. The designation meant that the aircraft could carry a 1000 kg (2205 lbs) bomb load 1000 km (621 miles) and fly at 1000 km/h (621 mph).
The first design under the design number 031 0239/01 was for a fairly conventional layout. The fuselage was long and tapered aft of the wing leading edge. Fuel was carried in several tanks located within the fuselage. The wings were thin and swept back at 35 degrees . Two Heinkel-Hirth He S 011 jet engines each developing 1300 kg (2866 lbs) of thrust were slung beneath the wings. Although the engines would cause more drag in this location, maintenance accessibility would be improved and a shorter design time would be achieved. The tail planes were also swept back; this along with the wing sweep and the fuselage thinning aft of the wing leading edge would help achieve the Mach number of .90. The main gear were mounted just inboard of the jet nacelles and retracted in and forward; the nose gear was beneath the cockpit and retracted to the rear. A single pilot sat in a cockpit located in the nose and afforded fairly good visibility. No armament was planned at this stage, and the bomb load of 1000 kg (2205 lbs) was carried in an internal bomb bay.
Since these designs would have taken several years to complete, the end of the war ended all development.

Now, as it was said in the fluff above, this was plane was never built, but several designs were planned, and blueprints are still around of them to be found. Since it was never built, some parts had to be filled in by me. Since no armorments were planned, I went ahead and added two Mk 108 30mm cannons into the wings, and added two SC250's below the Mk108 cannons.
Also to note, I was planning to add a cockpit to this plane, with a working stick and flashy lights, but carzy stuff kept happening with it all, so I scrapped it.

Anyways, hope ya peeps enjoy this Focke-Wulf design, and I hope for you all to see more of this jazz.

(Also, don't try and land on low physics, thats how you kill the hopes and dreams of your pilot. Landings on Medium are questionable at best, and High haven't been tested)

    Paint 4/5 a little more detail like Panal lines would be nice

    Flight performance 4/5 roll is a little fast and would like a little more up elevator
