Messerschmitt Me 509 [RESEARCH]
#1

This research was requested by Red Chico. I don't necesscairly agree with the choice in planes, but here's the info.

Me 509

Engine: Daimler-Benz DB 605B

Basically, the DB 605B was the same engine as the DB 605A that was used in the Bf 109 series, except it was designed for twin engined fighters.

I list this info because the Me 509 was based on the Me 309.

Might I suggest this plane as an alternative. It was a Japanese recon prototype of similar design that had overheating problems.

If I may offer a suggestion, don't make any of these. All of them were considered failures. THe R2Y suffered from engine overheating and the Me 309 suffered from nose gear problems. The Me 509 was never even built. Sorry that this isn't my best work, but you have asked for a dream plane and I don't have a ton of time this moment to chase dreams. In fact, all of the planes you asked for are dream planes. If you want a true idea of what I can do for a plane, look at the B-45 thread in the WIP section. Now, if you insist on persisting with your quest, let me know and I'll see if I can be of further assistance.
