Writting up something for actual post in an hour or so

The Blohm Und Voss Bv P.238, developed during the mid-years of WW2 as a heavy fighter/bomber for the Luftwaffe. As a successor of sorts of the P.141, the P.238 acts as a dive bomber and heavy fighter, loaded with an SC1200 under the main fuselage (AG1), and two MG 131 13mm guns (Harmonization set to roughly 200 meters) in the wing near the cockpit.
The cockpit itself is pressurized for the three man crew; pilot, navigator/radio operator, and engineer. A single hatch is present on the port side of the cockpit for crew to enter/exit from.
The fuselage contains the engine, a Daimler-Benz DB 630 36 cylinder Double W engine, and 3827 liters of fuel for said engine. The maximun speed reached by the P.238 was over 515 km/h in acceptable weather.

Anyways, me here. Really the only issue that should arise is takeoff. Because of the unique layout of the tricycle gear, the plane will yaw left when the engine is started. Besides that, I found out it can land on carriers (USS Beast only), and takeoff as well.
Hope ya peeps enjoy this odd plane, and expect more to come soon.
