Although god knows what you'd use to compile this beast!

Mossie engines, ?110's fuzz?, ?Tyhpoon canopy?, ?Mossie wings? lord knows what for the tail and horizontal stab/elevators...?

Might just end up in the "impossible"/"No Suitable Parts" bin - at least till someone comes up with a way of adding their own 3D files... ?
#4

perhaps even the me-210 engines Smile

Body, ahh dunno

Inner wings and engines Mozzie

Outter wings Tempest and elevators Tempest

I think you'd find that the Me-210's engine's and nacels will fit a bit better... Not perfect. It really needs a cross with the mossie Smile

Perhaps even with the entire engine/wing set....?

A Lysander... oooo yes please Big Grin
#9

I see. It does actuality look better.

Whats its weaponry?
#10

4x 20mm Hispano Cannon and up to 1000lbs of bombs. As for the lysander a pair of forward firing .303s a pair of vickers k guns / lewis guns for the observer and up to 500lbs of bombs.
#11

ooooh sounds.... intretsing...
#12

What aircraft do you intend to replace?
#13

Well as an idea, why not the Bf110-C, Ki-46, or perhaps even the Beaufighter...

So it only shows as a Whirlwind when you select RAF... the original when you select the other nationalities....?
#14

how about replacing the Blenheim I
#15

Is there any pilot reports? then we can compare there thoughts on maneuverability then try and figure out which would fit best... is the Whirlwind a Multi role like a Tempest, or just a attacker like the Mozzie etc?
