Hello everyone!
I was wondering if would it be possible to add torpedo for the armament of Ju-87D-3, or make own slot for D-4(or Ju-87E) based on the D-3 model .
I hope this suggestion will be interesting for our talented modders
, and think that this model would be a great addition to our game.
Ju-87D-4: Land-based torpedo-bomber conversion of Ju-87D-3, not used operationally, all converted back to original Ju-87D-3 specification.
Version Ju-87D-3
The D-3 was an improved D-1 with more armour for its ground-attack role. A number of Ju 87 D-3s were designated D-3N or D-3 trop and fitted with night or tropical equipment. The D-4 designation applied to a prototype torpedo-bomber version (converted from D-3), which could carry a 750–905 kg (1,650-2,000 lb) aerial torpedo on a PVC 1006 B rack.
Other modifications included a flame eliminator and, unlike earlier D variants, two 20 mm MG 151/20 cannon, while the radio operator/rear gunner's ammunition supply was increased by 1,000 to 2,000 rounds.
