Augen Der Kriegsmarine:

As most of us know(Most of us), The Arado Ar 196 was a shipboard reconnaissance low-wing monoplane aircraft designed and produced by the German aircraft manufacturer Arado.

This particular one is based on the A-3 version, specifically the lost plane D1+EH.

The Backstory:

The "Giest" Arado Ar-196 was a mythical plane that was believed to have helped the Kriegsmarine during WW2.

Widely believed to be hallucination, this supernatural plane was described as an ordinary 196, without the markings, sporting coastal camo.

Many believed it to be the D1+EH, which was lost in action.
This myth originated from the fact that various German Coast Guard outposts and ships of the Kriegsmarine ships would receive radio transmissions about enemy advancements and positions even when there were no planes deployed nearby.

This continued late until September 1945, even alerting German Resistance members.

Whether this myth was true or false, is not yet confirmed.

Note

This is not mobile-friendly!
This is my most detailed build up to date, and is rebuilt on my old Arado.
It has a completely detailed Cockpit and Radio-Place.
(Here Ya Go:)

And is also the testbed for * drum roll * detailed wings!

BTW, thanks to PlaneFlightX for testing, @232287168147825

    @BSKPlays2009 Hey Alter, do you think you can upgrade a BF-108 to be a full cockpit or something? Cuz it’s a really nice aircraft that’s really under appreciated. Just look for the one that has a Kartoffelfreundlich cockpit, and Vielen Dank!
