What do you think would be good stats for the Ju 187?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Junkers_Ju_187

My intial setup is:

movement: 12
initiative:7
SA:14
HA:12
AA: [10]
NA:14
GD:21
AD:19
release: April, 20, 1944

I think I might need to lower most everything, but it's tough not to have such high attack stats considering how many more bombs it carried. I don't want to have a super-unit, but I want to keep using Stukas...

btw, this is not my unit. I do not remember who made it. Thanks to whoever did, it looks great.

Looks like it might come from rezaf's 'Secret Weapons of the Luftwaffe'.

Yeah, that's it.

This is the plane that I think is awesome, made by Junkers of course.

What stats do you use, Flak? I would research it but don't know the name.

I really have not gotten around to doing any research yet. But when I get into my Post Kursk campaigns going to the Urals, I will have to do it. This plane was the father, not grandfather, of the modern day Warthog. The Warthog, with air supremacy, is the absolute "Hammer of Thor" on ground targets even today. So even diluting some factors for modern day rockets, bombs, etc., this plane would be truly awesome as a ground attack machine in the fantasy German campaigns. Think of a JU87 or even JU187 as a modern human being and this plane being "The HULK".

Warms my heart that people actually haven't completely forgotten about my old SWotL project. Maybe I should finish all the heavy bombers I still have lying around after all.

About the Junkers Ground Attack plane, the project never got an actual name, as far as I know. You can read more about it here, though, if you're interested.

In fact the name Ju 187 is wrong...its original name was Ju-287 but after the project was cancelled Junkers used the available number on another project (the jet-bomber Ju-287)...
Iam nitpcking here...just for the record
