this aircraft is an entry the bomber challenge by trojanaircraftsystems. After the success of the origional scharmtzler, Dornier was tasked with the creation of another airframe to serve as a tank commanders worst nightmare. the zwilling design was a battle proven base, and as such, a zwilling design was chosen (zwilling = twin in german). despite promise, the programme was ended after the first 26 had been finished, and so these were thrownxat the eastern front; despite having but months to prove their worth, these angels of death destroyed a total of 413 soviet tanks, SPAAs, and various other vehicles.

    It is noted that this aircraft was for my challenge and not the linked one. Foes not affect you any. I have always loved the zwilling designs, and this one really catches the eye. For a plane of this size it has decent speed and manuverability. Payload is diverse and well suited for diffrent tank busting missions. Here is an updoot and a spotlight for yer entry!
