Douglas B-18 Bolo
THE pre-war bomber of the USAAF. Despite the numbering sequence, it was the B-17 which succeeded it in strength. During the great depression, the B-18 had been just more cost effective than the B-17s.

Bf-110A0 and B1
BAT exclusiveIn 1937, the first pre-series run of the Bf-110A was powered by the Jumo210 as an interim solution and had a two blade propeller. It proved to be underpowered. The first B series run still had the Jumos since the DB601 wasn't availble yet, so almost a hundred were built and delivered to training units.
This is based on a very old mod by Riken (aka Bf-110B4) which had suffered form a few functional issues I could iron out now. I added Jumo-style chin coolers and divided the versions with new FMs. This is a for fun pre-war mod.
- cooler parts are not skinnable but work with vpmedia Bf-110 skins.
- early style cockpit, including gunner station
- new FM
- A0: 4x 7.7mm; B1 4x 7.7mm + 2x 20mm

It has folding wings, radar, torpedoes...

Polikarpov I-187
A very mean looking fighter of the I-185 family. It didn't make it off the drawing boards in 1943/44 (none built), but that does not prevent it from flying in Il-2 BAT

In 1944, the IL-1 was built as a single prototype for a heavily armored low level fighter

- Allison engine sound
- AI now attacks targets, rear gunner shooting
- navlights and landing lights
reintroduction of the Me-262 V3 1942 tail sitter
The four tail-sitter prototypes had a differently placed main gear. The old mod didn't change this and was standing at too steep an angle with a CoG problem. I moved the gear forward to it's proper position so this fun mod can now perform its only real trick to satisfaction: take off and landing in a tail wheel jet.
Therefore I simply closed up the underbelly, this mod has no more visible wheel wells and comes as-is for fun.
- original mod by Slow
- closed wheel wells
- gear moved forward for better CoG
- retractable tail gear
- MG151/20 and MK-108 test loadouts
- modified default skin with removed wheel wells.
- bonus: two marked skins for V2 and V3 PC+UB, PC+UC

The Duck was first introduced in 1935 as JF. While we have a model of the later J2F type, it's a worthwhile addition to TGA as well I think, especially since it is amphibian.
