If there’s one thing that can be “blamed” for my ever-increasing love of weird aircraft models, it’s the crazy world of “Luft ‘46”. I LOVE concept aircraft, especially those churned out on the napkins and lunchroom tables of the final days of Nazi Germany! There was no real end to the ideas those engineers and designers were willing to consider, and there weren’t apparently any rules as to what should and shouldn’t be tried.

With a situation like that, it doesn’t take much to really fire up my imagination, and often I find myself MAKING UP my own Luft ’46 creations instead of going with more “mainstream” and “legit” options, of which there are quite a few! To that end, I thought the following:

If a Mustang was good, and they made a Twin Mustang, then it stands to reason that since the FW-190 D9 was good, there really should have been a twin of that! Thus, another one of my forays into the dark reaches of my imagination began. The result is the FW-380; check it out and let me know what you think. I always love input, especially on my Luft ’46 creations!

Adam,

I think your concept is great and the model is super! I hope you will treat us to more!

I think its beautiful, though it could use a horizontal between the tails. The paint is outstanding.

Looking great, Adam, in this hobby everything goes, nice paintwork as well !

I think it could play 'musical' havoc with a bomber stream

Nice one Adam, great camo and I love the "Schräge Musik" battery in the starboard fuselage.

Agreed. Could you imagine the nightmare of finding the center of gravity to fly the real thing?

That is luckily one thing you don't have to take into consideration on "what if" builds..............

Yeah, CoG would be a menace, that's for sure!

I try and make my What Ifs as realistic as I can, taking the engineerng side into account, but in this case it was just too fun to worry about. I think, in retrospect, I'd make the Schraege Muzik installation a 2 or 3 cannon installation at most, if I had to do it again.

Also, imagine the flash blindness from firing all of those things!
