Default Ta 152 wing fuel tanks

jsut wondering if any consideration has been given to correcting the Ta 152H1, giving it a centreline drop tank and unprotected wing fuel bags

from Wiki:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Focke-Wulf_Ta_152

Fuel capacity was 595 L (157 US gal) for the H-0 model, with the option of a 300 L (80 US gal) drop tank on the centerline. The H-1 model carried an additional 454 L (120 US gal) of fuel in six unprotected bag tanks in the wings; typically, one of these tanks was used to hold the MW 50 methanol-water mixture and another for GM-1 nitrous oxide. The H-1 could also carry a 300 L (80 US gal) underbelly drop tank.
