Yup Junkers 213's  There was actually a JU 252 and a JU 352 but as far as I know no 152. I was inspired by the Mach 2 kit of the Ju 352 to create my own variant.  By Combining a He 177 with a Ju 290

It's based on a Dakota I saw at Duxford. I believe it was a RAF Transport Command colour scheme  that i always liked the look of.

Very nice! And far better looking that what Junkers actually came up with. Which raises the question: I wonder why Junkers didn't consider a cut-down '290 as a Ju-52 replacement?

BTW, the proposed Ju-252B (Jumo 211Js) was to have increased defensive armament but I doubt that it would have rivalled yours! As for the number, you're right that there was no RW Ju-152. The RLM assigned that number first to Klemm (for an unbuilt fighter project), then re-assigned it to Focke-Wulf for Tank's Ta-152 series.

Your finished scheme is awaited with bated breath  :thumbsup:
