The fourth in my Amerika Bomber Series, the He 277 was a really impressive airplane with a very troubled pedigree! Could its faults be fixed in time so it could bomb the United States?

Nice channel! Nutshelling the facts concisely with great background images. A bit of comic insight as well. Very clean. Pleasant modulation. Very sleepable as well. Great job.

It's a very sensible design compared to the Junkers 287. Now that was a Frankenstein monster!

So a four engine version of the He 177, then. Here's hoping that IL2 1946 "SAS" modification group creates a model of the 277--and why not, they created the Me 264 as a flyable model.

That's a Ju88A with Jumo 211 engines. The BMW engines doesn't appear much before the Ju88G-1. IIRC there was 1 Ju88C-3 and 4 Ju88C-5.

No, hi is a HE 177 Greif with 4 Engine!

@A.G.798 please watch again, and you will see when our presenter talks about the BMW engine, the picture of a Ju88A powered by a pair of Jumo 211 engines. Your apologies have been accepted.

@@neiloflongbeck5705 Correct, the exhausts make it clear that this is the inverted V Jumo 211 and not the BMW radial.

Those Germans are fine engineers! Ok i know there is a element of subjectivity in what i am going to say now, but many of their designs have a futuristic look about them, they defnitly look ahead of the curve in technology! I can just imagine what kind of machines would have seen the light of day,had they truimphed in Russia and geared up for a war with America!

Why they didn't just put the engines back-to-back, run 4 Props, 2 in front of the wing, 2 behind, and put this critter on Tricycle Landing gear? Wing-root in-take radiators could have cooled the 'pusher' engines, and Torque from the Props easily eliminated! Oh, wait, Dornier wasn't involved, and Ego interfered. Very German, that...

Did you know that, if your intro is played at 2x speed, it sounds even more jaunty and fun?

@worldofwarbirds 3 ай бұрын

I wonder if we double the speed again if the jauntiness level will also double? I'm going to apply to the governement for a grant to study the question.
