3dwa21, making a new aircraft is a difficult and long-lasting process, which requires plenty o' modders and patience. Momentarily, those brave people are working hard on bringing other aircraft to the community, but later...maybe, if you find more information about this a/c (which would be lovely to fly), like blueprints and so on. And a "please" would help, too.

I now that it came out a few of it and they weren't used for attacking but they are in Luftwaffe history Big Grin I think it would be a nice idea to do it

The reason it wasn't proceeded with in real life is its projected performance was no better than the Ju-87.

There's a model for CFS 2 and 3 for this aircraft, I could track a copy down, but I'm only starting to work with gmax again so I won't be able to start conversions to Il2 any time soon.

By the time of the Battle of Britain, the venerable Junkers Ju 87 design was beginning to show some of its shortcomings. A new, faster, better armed and better armored replacement was needed, so work was begun on the Ju 187 design. It kept some of the features of the earlier Ju 87, such as the cranked (gull) wing and two man crew, but added retractable landing gear and a very novel reversible vertical tail. The Ju 187 was to be entirely of metal construction. The wing was tapered and featured both dihedral and anhedral. Slatted dive brakes were fitted near the trailing edge of the landing flaps. The main landing gear was housed in a bulge at the junction of the wing where the angle of the wing changed, and retracted to the rear (also rotating 90 degrees to lay flat under the wings). Power was to be supplied by a Jumo 213A 12-cylinder liquid-cooled engine, which was also used in the Fw 190D and Ju 88G-6), and developed 1750 horsepower at takeoff. One of the most unusual features was the movable vertical tail fin, which could be moved 180 degrees in flight, thus clearing the field of fire for the rear gunner. Two men sat back-to-back in a pressurized cockpit. Defensive armament was located in a remote-controlled rear turret, consisting of one 151/20 20 mm cannon and one MG 131 13mm machine gun. The bomb load was composed of one 500 kg (1102 lbs) bomb under the fuselage, and two 50 kg (110 lbs) bombs under each wing on either side of the landing gear bulges.
Although windtunnel models and even a full-sized mock-up was built, the project was canceled due to the fact that the projected performance was not that much of an improvement from the older Ju 87, and also that fighter-bombers such as the Fw 190F series could do the job as well as specialized dive bombers. In October 1943, the project designation 287 was officially given to the forward-swept wing jet bomber project that Junkers was designing.

I too would love to have this in game, and it has the stuka ugly/mean looks that first attracted me to the Ju87.
