this could be a good canidate for the next "frankenplane"

just use the floats from the Ju-52 or the Arado and the B6N1 Jill or B5N1 Kate for the rest

Single-engined twin-float reconnaissance seaplane. All-metal construction with fabric-covered control surfaces.

Accommodation: Crew of three in tandem enclosed cockpits.

Powerplant: One Mitsubishi Kinsei 43 fourteen-cylinder air-cooled radial rated at 1,060 hp for take-off, and 1,080 hp at 2,000 m, driving a three-blade propeller.

Armament:
One flexible rear-firing 7.7 mm Type 92 machine-gun.
One flexible rear-firing 7.7 mm Type 92 machine-gun and one flexible downward-firing 20 mm Type 99 Model 1 cannon (field modifications on late production aircraft).
External load: one 250 kg bomb, or four 60 kg bombs or depth-charges.

This is an example of something that of done would fit in my "Pacific Toolkit" mod. There could also be an Eastern Front Toolkit, Afrika, etc.

Take planes that will never be seen in the given theater, and mod them to theater appropriate planes.

So the Arado gets a Kate fuselage for the PTO. Japanese planes that will never be used in Europe get bashed into appropriate planes (like the fairy battle).

Then, instead of loading all the franken planes, or 1 at a time, you load the PTO franken planes, the ETO franken planes, etc.

the 'Glen' is very close to it

I say a B5N with floats is damn near spot on.

If this beast was based on the Ar-196, filling in the Ardo's Multi slot... then all the relevant FM data would correspond, allowing for it to float nicely... I think thats where the N1K1-Float plane went wrong...

Also the bomb load wouldnt be too far off either Smile
