... на Физлер-167 только вчера искал, самолет малосерийный, но наличный парк был передан Румынии и использовался ей на черноморском ТВД. Машина очень красивая и оригинальная, если реально воевал - можно делать.

Отчего же не воевал?

Nine of the existing Fi.167 were sent to a coastal naval squadron in the Netherlands and then returned to Germany in the summer of 1943. After that they were sold to Croatia, where their short-field and load-carrying abilities (under the right conditions, the aircraft could descend almost vertically) made it ideal for transporting ammunition and other supplies to besieged Croatian Army garrisons between their arrival in September 1944 and the end of the War. During one such mission, near Sisak on 10 October 1944, an Fi 167 of the Air Force of the Independent State of Croatia was attacked by five North American Mustang Mk IIIs of No. 213 Squadron RAF. The crew of the Fieseler had the distinction of shooting down one of the Mustangs before itself being shot down - possibly one of the last biplane "kills" of the war.
