Good questions.
Short unofficial answers:
Me-210 - DT intends to make all the planes in the game flyable. But, they're a very small team, they have a lot to do, and there are a lot of aircraft to do!
Early model Bf-110 - The planes of 1939-40 have never been the focus of IL2, and until a few years ago, modelers have been discouraged from making them. There's no reason why they can't be made, however.
DT has added a number of twin-engined planes to the game over the years, notably the Ki-45, and several new versions of Ju-88. There's also a good chance that we'll eventually get a flyable Bf-110G-4 night fighter.
The massive (literally, years of work) B-24D project was the work of two remarkably talented outside developers - Monguse & Buster Dee. Likewise, the He-177 also represented the work of outsiders. It just happened that the 4.13 patch was when those projects got released.

Sadly, no vehicle that Northrop-Grumman claims intellectual property rights to can be included in the game. That means no P-61 for us

DT can't take donations. But, if you want you can help make the He-177 Grief become flyable by sending money here:

If you speak a foreign language, have access to unusual resources (e.g., existing aircraft, rare technical manuals), or have detailed technical or historical knowledge, then offers of research assistance might be helpful.

What you can do in the meantime is design missions and campaigns, and perhaps make skins, especially for the less popular aircraft. If they're good enough, you can sent them to DT for inclusion in a later patch. In any case, Mission4 Today will take anything that's halfway decent:

Finally, play the game - especially online - and get your friends to play it. Keeping this wonderful old game alive depends on a dedicated user community.
