It seems to me that this request does not meet the charter of the forum!
Attention to hammer of Thor!

Don't worry, no one will waste time even looking at this thread, let alone build it .. it truly is "coyote ugly"..

A classic example of the 5 minute "wikki obscure aircraft" special request...

I want this aircraft

[spartan18a]

It looks like a hybrid of a He111 and a Ju88 ... 

[MIKEGTJK]

I'd say more like the Do-17

[max_thehitman]

Its a miniature version of the "Flying pencil"   

I never read about this bomber type.

[Uzin]

This plane looks nicely.Very functional shapes.
 More than one hundred being built, I suppose it is worth to be done for our game.
There are some planes here which were built in smaller amounts, yet implemented.
I do not understand the objections expressed above.
Just 2pence, no flame.

I think it Would be a neat addition.
