Auto Credit Based on Shavel24's Bomber
The re-development of a bomber aircraft made by Shavel as a third-generation (1936-1947) aircraft.
Re-development
The fuselage retains its cigar-shaped front and middle sections and an empennage similar to the current airliners of the day. In the original build the aircraft had about four gun turrets, after modifications the back turret is removes and replaced by an additional turret in the top side of the rear fuselage.
In accordance to specifications, a Martin XB-27 type cockpit was planned but was dropped in favor of a stepless design due to visibility, and due to chronological constraints the swept vertical stabilizer is replaced.

@Graingy fuselage and gun turret positions
if i did retain the cockpit at the fuselage it might look like Martin XB-27 (canopy is in the top side, mid-fuselage that it looked like a fighter)
and changed landing gear to tricycle
looks great, but I kinda wonder what similarities it has with the predecessor aircraft? Is there a specific part of the style you were trying to replicate?
