I began working on this mod when Dimons uploaded the Ju86E. But Real Life has its demand and it remains at mid work on my hard disk.
The recent creation of the SASImporter by Mike is a revolution that incited me to check its obvious abilities to facilitate plastic surgery and transplant surgery on various aircarft models - it brings an end with the cumbersome manipulation of 3ds, obj, mismatched mapping and so on - the result of the first test is here - the Ju86 family. I reworked the 3d model, the java, the loadouts and even make a template, a very basic one - sadly Hayate who made the template of my previous mod, the Ju52 family, passed away a few weeks ago, he was a great modder and a very kind person.
Here the result:

The mod needs the installation of the weapons in the following archive:
https://www.mediafire.com/file/t0tqwgxqr1ttl2z/Ju86+weapons.7z/file

This archive includes also 2 weapons folder: 1) _armsGerman_WW2 and 2) _armsUKWW2addenda
https://www.mediafire.com/file/t0tqwgxqr1ttl2z/Ju86+weapons.7z/file

Please, reinstall the _armsGerman_WW2 folder if you have already it in your installation - I corrected the BSK36 weight (by mistake I put a weight eght times the real weight and could not understand why planes could not take off with 16 or 24 BSK36 - till i found the mistajke)
You can pour the content of the _armsUKWW2addenda into the _armsUKWW2 folder (asa matter of fact teh emshes of these ordnances were already in teh _armsUKWW2 folder but their java were lacking)

The mod has been tested in Il2-FB 4.12.2 SAS Modact 5.30 so will work in BAT 3.x without problem - for BAT 4.2 you are invited to report.

The original Dimon's Ju-86E is included (though i have corrected its loadouts.

Huge thank you for this !

For skinners:
Building the Ju86 has streesed to which extent the profile artists and decals producers have introduced their own conception of colours and camoflage in their works - not to speak of the inflation of colourized monochrome photographs, that succeed to produce very convincing but historically wrong colour schemes. Recent developments that included chemical analysis of paint chips on museum pieces and digital analysis of b&W photographs have enabled to make some order in all this.
There for i uploaded an archive with bitmaps of "authen tic colours" according to the up-to-date knowledge in the field. This includes relevant paint colours for Germn, Spanish, Hungarian and Manchurian Ju86
Some colours have different shades according to time and place (Cerulean Blue for instance, or RLM 65).
Another point - the light grey shade of German civilian export planes: this was no other than the regular DKH L40-62 Grau or "Lufthansa Grey". In very few cases did the buyer ask for an unpainted metal finish (this made the plane faster as paint =weight, but paint ahs also a protective effect).

Sources on the SAAF Ju87Z7 in East Africa are scarce ad a lot of uncorrect information is being propagated through the web - it took me some time till I succeeded to find photographs and even a movie , enabling to put some order in all the conflicting data.
The result of SAAF improvosation was a real Flying Fortress - 2 browning MGs in fixed position in the nose, one VickersK in a window on each side, one VickersK in each of the turrets (dorsal and ventral), 4 attachment points for British Universal Bomb Racks (up to 1 british 500lb bomb on each rack, though in pratice only 250lb bombs were used on them) and 2 attachment points for Britsh Small Bombs Rack (up to 4 Britsh 30lb bombs or smaller on each rack)

The Operational Combat Records of the 16th Squadron SAAF can be found online in the British National Archives. i colleted from the them following loadouts used on their Ju86 in East Africa:
16 Sqn SAAF
2x250lb + 4x20lb
4x250 + 6x20lb
3x250 + 8x20lb
(3 ac 20x20lb + 11x250lb)
4x250lb + 4x25lb Inc + 4x20lb RL
4x250lb + 8x25lb Inc
4x250lb + 8x20lb RL
4x250lb + 12x20lb RL
2x250lb (Instant) + 2x250lb (Delay 12h) + 8x20lb RL
4x250lb (Delay 12h) + 8x20lb RL

In addition, in their initial period in East Africa, the Ju86s had been used in Anti-submarine duties over the Red Sea.

here are some of the pics:

Thanks !

The archive includes also 2 weapons folder: 1) _armsGerman_WW2 and 2) _armsUKWW2addenda

Je ne vois pas ces dossiers dans l'archive...

I corrected the first post too

Awesome work Thank you very much Dreamk .

Best Regards,

Nice work ! Instelled it in BAT-WAW, and works well. It just makes the previous Ju-86E unusable (the null error message when loading a mission). So, I guess, these new Ju-86 replace the old one. By the way... the skins of the old E fit the new versions.

Great great work!!!!!!!!!!

[HaFu1939]

Thank you very much, this is awesome. Such a plane, you brought it to life...

[jpten]

Great work but the model with the most WW2 operational time was the JU-86P.  Any hope?

[Frankiek]

I suppose you can live with it
