Can't remember the name, but if I remember correctly, they were used to resupply Rommell, unfurtunately, we were reading their mail, and damn near all of those airplanes were shot down during a big resupply effort.

this is easy
watched a history channel segment on it and other's in the wee hours today
I knew about it,but wasn't entirely aware of it's capacity
close to a c-130
in 1940

Are you sure that isn't a Blohm and Voss BV-222

Are you sure that isn't a Blohm and Voss BV-222

positive
and jnuts shooting one of these down must of required some degree of skill
obviously it's designed to be employed when you have complete air supremacy
that's a hint too

Me 323

watch History Channel or Military Channel. It was a german glider for troops which sucked. As a glider it was great, but then they put engines on it and made it bigger and it sucked. Think it may have been the basic design of the Boing series C 125- C 135, but not sure.

originally designed as a glider to air-ferry troops into England as part of seelowe

Imagine a succesful german victory in the "battle of britian"
in which germany enjoys complete air supremacy
and a dozen of these deploying heavy ordinance and ammo along with the regular fallschirmjagers against a UK largely undefended because all their heavy ordinance had been lost in france
and germany could have taken out the UK via airborne parablitz
deploy all available U-boats in the english channel as well as the luftwaffe
capture a port and develope a bridgehead
blanket the english channel with U-boats and the luftwaffe so any interdiction by the royal navy is suicide(think force Z)
and the germans then expand into england with armored divisions
england cries mercy in 9 weeks
