Any German speakers around? My German sucks, I speak it far better than I understand what I'm saying.
what is Heizscheben?
schlechtwetterausristung? (spelling may be off there...can't make out some of it)
Projekt update.
It appears there were two phases of planning, during 1943 and after Nov44. Prorities changed somewhat between these times.
Here is the thing, priorities wouldn't have changed in a 1946 campaign setting. Nov44 would be a totally different kettle of fish if you follow Oleg's 1946 campaign events readme.
My idea was for two new TA-C slots, one Ta152C-1/R11 is historical to the letter the second is for Luft-46, Ta152C-3/R11 it is also quite historical and is NOT a "paper-waffe" plane like the Ta183 or Lerche. The one and only reason this plane suits the 1946 campaign only is because the Mk103M motorkanone was not yet in production when the war ended...so it falls under just the same rules as the Me410D mod.
The C-1 did enter production, possibly up to three delivered plus the four prototypes, the C-3 was about to enter production.
These varianten were the result of post Nov44 RLM planning, there were many more. Here's where it gets a little interesting.
During 1943-44 a whole plethora of Ta152C subtypes and variants were planned. The Graf Zeppelin was still under construction...
yes that's right
Ta152C-1/R15 carrier based fighter
(edited, it is a C-1 variant not a C-3, my mistake)
Now I know some of you have the ShipPack2 with the Graf Zeppelin, I do. And I know we don't even have the Me109T and Ju87C yet (SLOW....no wonder you picked this name lol). But it's food for thought. If construction on the Graf was resumed mid44, launched mid45, commissioned early46, that would be just in time to have the Ta152C-3/R15 on its decks for show downs in the Atlantic with the American Essex class and its Corsairs, or the British Illustrious class and its Sea Furies (a nice match up I think, good for game balance). Plus the R14 kit was for torpedo bombing which makes the TA a double threat at sea.
Food for thought. Wouldn't have a clue how to model graphics like a carrier hook personally.
There was also a Ta152C-5 planned which had just 3x Mk103 guns (two in the wing roots). Probably for dedicated ground attack, still working on some translations.
The C-2, C-4 and C-6 variants just had different radio gear (C-2 is to C-1 what the 109G-3 is to 109G-1, etc.). Actual subtypes of the Ta152C were contained in R
