Blohm und Voss BV 138, "die fliegende Holzschuh" (flying sabot - wood shoe) :?: :)
They stationed mainly in Norway and took part in the fight against Allied convoys.

With another earlier hint, my best guess now is that we're getting a Kriegsmarine DLC! :D
(If I'm right, that's awesome! Quite fresh, and it makes use of the lovely naval mechanics so far only really exploited in the original two campaigns).

The second plane is most likely Dornier Do 18 (or Do 24, but this one had a rotating turret from the front). It was difficult. :wink:

The BV 138 and Do 18/24 also stationed on the Sicily, Sardinia and Crete, so perhaps the naval war in the Mediterranean Sea?

Interesting.
Wherever the devs decide to focus their naval engagement it will hopefully mean more new units.
If they want to keep the German perspective it must be the Atlantic; Bismarck, Prinz Eugen, Hood, Swordfish....
