Spanish Civil War in BoB?

[TUCKIE_JG52]

Well, at risk to sound repetitive with the SCW theme...

I've been glad to know in the last update that Oleg is modelling a He-59 for BoB with such high detail. Most spanish simmers have been also happy to know that this never before made plane will get into BoB.

This plane was used in Spain specially in night road and railway attacks. They flew almost freely along the mediterranean coast and surely it's the main reason that forced the Republican Air Force to create a night fighter squadron.

So I feel that I must post this here, about the spanish combat that He-59 sustained:

It's in spanish, but there are lots of pictures anyway.


With this plane in SCW, there will be 5 planes in BoB that flew in SCW. The other are the Bf-109E (Will we have E-1 and E-3?), the Dornier Do-17 and the Fiat BR-20. I do not count the He-111 so E version had a so different appeal.
I think there will be also a Tiger Moth.

All them are from the same side, the nationalist one, except the Tiger Moth (some flew for both sides).

So there's a big interest not only on these, but also on the modelling tools that Oleg said he will release shortly after the launch of BoB.

With these tools, I think we can do a lot of work to create a Spanish Civil War expansion, that includes planes to be used in other expansions, like Polikarpov I-16, Fiat CR-32, Tupolev SB-2, Polikarpov R/Z, He-111E, Savoia-Marchetti SM-79 Sparviero...

The effort some of us made in a perished project for Targetware is not lost. At least we kept the info we grabbed. Just waiting better times to get to the surface
