From wiki

Kampfgeschwader 200 (KG 200) (in English "Battle Wing 200" or "Air Battle Group 200") was a German Luftwaffe special operations unit during World War II. The unit carried out especially difficult bombing and transport operations and long-distance reconnaissance flights, tested new aircraft designs and operated captured aircraft included B-17 and P-38 And Spitfire and more

Note: this plane supposed to posted on 5 day early but I accidentally deleted the SP File
And I try to recover the file but I fail
So I just build it again

And this what it looks like before it got deleted

    You forgot to put the ball gunner somewhat near the end of the B-17

    One interesting information:
    Wikipedia
    The KG200 (200th bomber wing) refers to captured B-17s and B-24s as "Dornier Do 200".

    @ChisP Pretty sure it was for frendly AA not to shoot trophy planes because of silhouette, yellow is more different from American and English camouflages

    @NightmareCorporation Normally I don't see that light of a yellow. Most of the time I only see the normal mustard orange-yellow on planes. In this case, the Germans were incredibly stupid painting the bottom yellow. lol

    @NightmareCorporation Is that some sort of model kit? Because the Germans didn't even have that tone of yellow.

    First off, they would have never painted the underside yellow. You might as well paint crosshairs on it. Pitch rate is good but it rolls way too fast. They did not have 3 forward-facing guns and you have no waist gunners. You need to use a new wing technique as well. link. Finally, make a bomb bay. This has a lot of good things going for it but you need to pay close attention to detail a bit more. Let me know if you ever need help.
