Part of my scaled WW2 series - All aircraft built to scale, with accurate weights, speeds and flight characteristics to the original.
America's war machine. Boeing created a 4 engines bomber that focused on offering extremely rugged protection through the extensive use of heavy armour and bristling turret defences. The philosophy being that the bomb payload size was strategically unimportant compared to the capability of the aircraft to return home, rearm, and carry out the mission again and again.
I've created this aircraft to be used in dogfight mode. You take the place of the tail gunner, can you protect your crew?
INSTRUCTIONS - VTOL controls pitch. Yaw controls roll. Traditional pitch & yaw have been remapped to control the rear turret.

The name sounds like a Chinese offbrand of the Flying Fortress.
SBD-3 dauntless would be nice of you
@ShiptyCo Its planned, but not for a while. I'm doing a series of anti-shipping warplanes next. Anything you'd like to see there?
Can you please make a non dogfight model de?
