It's wonderful that we will have a fully-flyable He-177. Thank you to everyone who contributed to the project.

BUT, the process of making the He-177 fully flyable would also be an excellent opportunity to fix some serious damage model bugs.

Notably:

Damage endcap for fuselage doesn't show internal structure.

Wings are incredibly fragile given size and the fact that the He-177 was designed so that it could make glide bombing attacks.

Hooks for engine smoke effect are triggered by breaking outer wing.

Vertical stabilizer is much harder to break than horizontal stabilizers.

Control surfaces are incredibly easy to damage or break given size.

Engines can't be set on fire.

Oil coolers & tanks not modeled.

Engine nacelles break off off in unrealistic fashion when they take fatal damage.

Destroying engine also causes engine nacelle & all wing parts to break.

Judging from the site above, it looks like it will be only partially flyable. Only pilot, bombardier, and one turret will be playable. Lack of funds. Its so sad that there is so little interest in german planes :(

There's plenty of support for German planes, just not so much support for the He-177, which wasn't particularly well-known or successful.

Something sexier, like the Me-410, He-219 or Me-262B might get more support.

My impression is the opposite. Ok, we have tons of Bf-109 and Fw-190 variants. But we have no flyable Bf-110 other than the G-2, no 210, no 410, no Ju-88C, and dont have any useful mid war bombers at all. Player is forced to fly obsolete He-111H2/6 and Ju-88A4/5 even in 1943. Even though there are more than enough references for all major Do-217 variant cockpits (E2/4, K1, M1), none of them flyable. Even updated versions of He-111 and Ju-88 are missing (He-111H16, and Ju-88A14)
