Henschel Hs-132
An order from RLM for a single seat anti-shipping/attack aircraft although the order was for a piston driven aircraft it was hoped that the turbojet could match the requirement, though it was never fully completed and the undfinished prototypes were captured by the Russians, though the way it would've operated is interesting, instead of a 90 degree dive like the Stuka it would shallow dive from far out and almost lob the bomb using a primitive computer sight to help aid in the bombing, another strange design was that the pilot was prone this would've helped with G-forces in a dive, not only would it serve an anti-shipping role it would also be a ground-attacker mainly agianst the Russian T-34's but it was never completed fully and the Russians never caried on with the program

Can you make it a twin fuselage “zwilling” type aircraft like the BF-109-Z and HE-111-Z?
