I was also wondering if anyone would like to have a crack at making a Tupolev Tu-2? I think the closest match at the moment is the Petlyakov Pe-2 which does look very similar.

Fokker G.I Dutch WW2 heavy fighter. Several were ordered by Sweden, Denmark and republican Spain, but none of the export planes were delivered. 23 were operational with the Dutch airforce and more export aircaft were under construction when the Germans invaded. Those captured continued serving the Luftwaffe as trainers for the Bf 110.

Fixing it. Will include a what-if Spanish one.

Cool! The Dutch Lightning. Been waiting for a long time for one of these beauties. I did have it in the Spanish Civil War scenario but ended up dropping it as there was no available graphic. Would there be any chance of making one in Republican colours?

@McMonkey Yep. Done it already. Fixed the wing, fuselage and the nacelles too. I think it looks better now.
A FW 189 is the next logical step...
And if, one fine hypothetical day along the road, I find a way to make my Fallgelb scenario idea work and enjoyable and WW2 scenario fatigue has lifted by then somewhat on this forum, I'll include the 23 the Dutch had (as one probably one unit) in that as well.

Well, thats good to know. Here is another blitzgrieg period recce plane, the Henschel 126.
250 took part in the invasion of Poland. In June 1941, at the beginning of Operation Barbarossa , some 48 squadrons were equipped with it. Also in 1941 in North Africa,the Hs 126 were the eyes of the Desert Fox . Until the spring of 1942, more than 600 Hs 126 aircraft served in the front lines on all fronts.
It was also used as a light attack plane. It also served with the Condor legion in Spain and Axis Bulgarian, Croatian and Estonian allies.

16 Henschel 126 were ordered by Greece in 1938. The first air casualty for RHAF was a HS.126 shot by Fiat CR.42s. They played an important role in spotting the invading Italian forces in October 1940, that were subsequently driven back into occupied Albania. When the Germans joined the Italians in April 1941, all the remaining planes were destroyed on the ground, except for one that was captured.

The Rogožarski IK-3, a , Yugoslav fighter of the 30s you have probably never even heard of. They had about a squadron built at the time of the april 1941 Axis invasion.

While we are at it, here is its predeccesor, the Ikarus IK-2. One squadron flew out of Banja Luka or Zagreb against the invading Germans, Hungarians and Italians.

Well, Chernobyl (the nuclear power plant of notoriety) translates from Russian as "Wormwood," as in the meteor in Revelation at the back of the Bible which hits the world and poisons the earth and sea, or some such, so... :S

And that's why I'm naming my yacht the SS Live-Forever.
