Proposed as a replacement for the aging Heinkel He 115, the Ju-88C seaplane could be used in a variety of roles, which included torpedo bombing, mine laying and search & rescue. More importantly it has an effective 'real' water take off and landing system.

The Ju-88C seaplane carries a new type of torpedo that simulates a magnetic influence or proximity detonator. The advantage of this type of torpedo is it can be used against any ship in SDOE because it does not rely on below waterline hull contact.

A terrain-covering seaplane landing zone has been include which allows this seaplane to land / take off at any time in the 'open' sea and most rivers or lakes. If other planes / objects fall over this zone they hit the water and are destroyed. Features:

*Effective 'real' water take off and landing system.
*Weapons include torpedoes, rockets and parachute sea mines.
*Two animated crew. Pilot's head moves insync with stick position and navigator's head tracks targets.
*Crew hatch with extending / retracting ladder.
*Night lights which can be switched on /off via the aircraft load out or a keystroke command.
*Incorporated retractable beaching gear.
*Engine exhaust pipes, float shadows, antenna wire, 2 x 20 mm and 2 x 37 mm cannons.
*Included an animated downed pilot and friendly agent in zip.
*Supports up to 1024 x 1024 aircraft 'skins'.
*1.5.2.9 'patch' compatible.
