maybe but snail could if they wanted to add something new like they did with turm III stabilizer for fun would be funny to see.
For ussr - literally in German markings.
Plus the Soviets never captured any working ju287s.

girl what 😭
for USSR??
USSR never used the JU 287 that’s in the images.
here screen shot
Spoiler
V2
V3 with 6 engines and was found in germany was 90% completed
Spoiler
and for my understanding only V3 can be added because it’s only one had full operational equipment and bombs and tail gunners and it’s not fake.
image from TT33a.
i think you mean the EF131 which have different amount of engines and placement as you see in the
i don’t know if this one even used bombs or any guns.

They never used any. They were all unfinished or destroyed.
No clue about bombs but the Soviet planned/mounted 13mm guns to the rear but the main one the could realistically go to the soviets would be
EF 140
What you actually posted mistaking it for 131
Spoiler
could be wrong there because none seems to actually know the differences between the 2 in photos lmao.
i don’t mean used in war germany did fly the V1 as test fly
they were destroyed but still build and found in germany maybe germany get the V3 according to suggestion rules:
yes it’s confusing i saw these posts thought that they are the same i have little information about this bomber 131
Was talking about the Soviets.
Honestly, if the Ju 287 is at all a viable addition to the game (almost certainly as the V3 variant), it would make for a perfect DCT vehicle. It passes the popularity and uniqueness criteria with flying colors, and it has, I believe, attained a sort of “status” in the community like the TOG II. I would not at all mind if this showed up this year, although it would violate the assumption of no repeated nations.

I mean we have way better options for DCT, truth be told. this is pretty underwhelming, not too different from late German bombers but instead of prop it has jet engines…
It’s actually quite different lmao.
Sure better options exist. But it’s a very unique plane with its forward swept wings and the jet engines 🤷♀️ this is one of the few possible ones available to be added.
Idk how you put underwhelming unless you ever know nothing about it orrrr are just trying to annoy people 🤷♀️ it’s been a very suggested plane for 10? Years

Messerschmitt p1101 :3 been suggested forever and could be pretty fun (although probably fits the tech tree a little more)

The hull was built, comparing it to the Flakpanzer 341 that had no unique components built isn’t entirely fair.
A re-used component from other vehicles, like a Panther hull in this case, is not a vehicle specific components and still has it count as an entirely unbuilt vehicle unless some specific modification was done to it. An entirely unique hill like the Kranvagn is a partly built prototype on the other hand.

It was not a YF-16, it was a new model of F-16 only based on old Sparrow testing on the YF-16 platform that was discarded by the USAF. The F-16AJ still would’ve used an early block production airframe, full radar, and so on, just modified to integrate Sparrow missiles and the additional hardpoints.
None of the F-16 photos with Sparrows are related the F-16J, instead the later F-16J proposal just took these earlier tests as basis for a new proposed variant.
This aircraft was never built, as by that point it had already lost to the F-15J.
Then again the aircraft in game is neither, it’s not a YF-16, but also not an F-16AJ either. It’s a Block 10 with later PW-220 engine and two Sparrows integrated like it’s a 90s F-16 ADF (the F-16J was a late 70s proposal).

It’s not about it if it’s possible to model, that’s a separate issue entirely and can often even mean complete vehicles will be entirely deniend (take the Komatsu 105mm GSR for example), while incomplete vehicles like the Ho-229 still have the information to be accurately modelled.
The difference between an unfinished prototype and a tech demonstrator here is that one might be incomplete, but is still a fully armed design that’s partly built. A tech demonstrator on the other hand can be complete, bit if no armed design for it exists then any armament for it is fictional. Not paper, as if it doesn’t exist it needs to be entirely made up now.

Not enough for it to be DCM worthy in my opinion. At least not any time soon.
DCT is more for “wonky”/“unusual” vehicles that don’t really fit the game and weren’t going to be added otherwise. At least that was the original thinking but considering we got the kv7 (the community wasn’t very pleased) through it, idk anymore.
First time I see anybody talk about it, like, ever.
What is exactly the ju287. One of the first (if not first) jet bombers and one of few planes with forward swept wings that were armed 🤷♀️ it’s exactly a unusual/wonky plane
What this likely wouldn’t as its not good. The information is limited it’s a unfinished prototype and limited armerment. It’s very possible to be a dreams come true.
Have you considered you don’t look at late war German Protoypes/programs 🤷♀️

Okay yeah, it’s pretty unique but again. As I said.
Or as you said.
I never said it should never be added.
I just don’t think it should be the one this year, or next year. Etc.
That’s just my opinion.
Not many more unique or as cool 🤷♀️ meant better as in actually good lmao
And idk what your on its basically perfect for a dreams come true event
I tried to make a suggestion about it before, Its nice vehicle.

Cough cough.
It will also be beyond broken with the bomber buff.
Obviously there’s more but this is the one I want the most.
Tried to include pictures of em but, it would end up in a constant error and just wouldn’t let me.
