WWZed Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 No I am not talking about Zeus but the new U-2vs aircraft collector plane. Built in 1929 it doesn’t really fit in WW1 FC and though it was used in WW2 it was used because of scarcity of real aircraft. Take off at 60 get out and push to get it to 100 in the air. Great view because there isn’t much aircraft there.... AAA takes the wings off in one shot... fighters will have a hard time shooting it down due to low and slow. I mean real slow... did I mention it is slow? You can drop a bomb 3 minutes after flying over target and still hit it! I mean it is slow.....

WWChunk Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 I have not done much studying, but I assume it was used in much the same way the Storch was used by the German's. If they have a collector Storch, I'm definitely in on that, but the I'll be skipping the U-2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWZed Posted December 20, 2018 Author Share Posted December 20, 2018 Nope, armed with machine gun position, machine gun scotch taped to lower wing and bomb load. Not a storch by any stretch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WWSensei Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 Excellent series based on these outdated aircraft and the Night Witches that flew them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFK9wAOatGE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
