…but afaik exactly how they were used.
Not quite sure anymore (I have a book about them somewhere) but I think to remember some later variants had a rudimentary autopilot that should help the Ju-88 part of the Mistle fly to the target on a more straight and easier to aim trajectory - but I read that book maybe 25 years or so ago, so don’t hold me to it…

Interesting 😂
@Stona_WT can the 190 be used separately? does it have options for bombs / guns like a regular fighter?

A 3.5t heavy shaped charge that iirc in tests penetrated up to 20m of reinforced concrete or 7m of steel…

Didn’t even have a telescopic sight?
Better than nothing, I suppose! Germany definitely could’ve done that, seeing as the V-1 was Gyroscope/Cut-off “guided” but I wonder if there’ll be some sort of aiming point, like the rocket indicator you see in ARB, or similar.
Zoweee mama
You spelled “nightmare” wrong, haha!

No armament on the fw-190. So a meme configuration, but sill a DREAM!
Given that’s a 2 ton shaped charge does that mean the bomb will be modeled as a heat round or will it still be a normal GP bomb in-game?
Will this “bomb” explode the same way as conventional bombs when hit by mgs?
Fly united…

Maybe only use in naval.
Okay, gotta give it to you Gaijin. This is PEAK 🔥
I looks really cool but the 35,000 requirement is a little bit off putting.

Holy moly, actual peak
No use at all against moving ships, but they were used against allied shippping off Normandy, and bridges on the Eastern Front. They had been intended to attack poorly defended industrial areas around Moscow, but the war had moved to Germany by then.
They were not effective.
