@TheOwlAce RLM is how Germany designated their aircraft, proper paint colors, and all sorts of stuff. It's Reich-Something-Ministry basically. Bf-109 went through several variations the most extreme were the Bf-109T - intended for Carrier service with folding wings and arrestor gear, the Bf-109Z which was a paper project that would have been like the P-82 Twin Mustang, the Me-209 and the paper project Me-109TL (Think a crossbreed between a Bf-109 and Me-262.) Variations received a new letter designation, subvariants received a number after the letter. Field modification kits would add a / followed by a coding indicating the kit used. lol
@DragonAerotech RLM? And its because its the same model of aircraft just different version, like they had it with the Bf-109
@TheOwlAce By the way, did I ever mention to you that the RLM never issued the same number to more than one aircraft? ;-) For example, the Bucker Bu-133~ XD
@DragonAerotech I might use the Ju-71-C-2, just give its gunner back and some bigger guns.
@TheOwlAce Might be a good idea, I've contemplated using the night fighter version of my Finnish attack plane as an escort fighter too. lol
@DragonAerotech She is fun to fly. Im thinking of taking one of these night fighters and converting them to escort fighters.
I had fun test flying her while I was working on her armaments! Made a few strafing runs against Tiny even. lol XD
@DragonAerotech Thank you again for helping me on this!
