Are those "Thin Man"-like gun-type nukes it carries?

Sorry about this late reply! Those are aerial torpedoes.

Does it dive(germans had an infamous fetish for it even if it was pointless on anything above small bombers) for attack or there is some way to control descent and break the speed for torps before they'll hit the water(those torps being some strange hybrid of Fritz X, Hs 293/294 and Long Lance)?

Oh, God, why so big? What are you even hunting? Atlantis?

What is this one base on? can't find any other planes on google images that look like this. Really sad.

Beautiful work! What programmes did you use?

Impressive look

Yes, those are aerial torpedoes. You can see more images of this Me-264 on my website:Β www.oxygino.com/site/?p=1039

This does look like something the Germans would have tried to build in 1944-45. Β Were the German engineers really trying to save the Third Reich, or just trying to add to their resumes in the hopes of getting jobs in the "Cold War", as we now call it?

This is wonderful! Would you consider doing one on the Fw 238?

Now that is what I call a high-speed torpedo bomber!

exactly not, it was Willy Messerschmitt own idea to develop this plane with such wings.

this has al the design features of a Nazi wunderweapon... Advance features for the day, swept wings push pull engines remote turrets....and it still keeps the basic look of a German light bomber of the time pencil shaped fuselage, twin tails. glass nose..great merge of details here,

This would perfectly fit Wolfenstein The New Order!

Ah yes. the Amerika Bomber Projekt.
While yes, this HEAVILY MODIFIED Messerschmitt Me 264 might have done well, I think the Arado E.555 and Horten Ho XVIII just might have better succeeded in this role. A flying wing is just more fuel efficient, and (in time) allowed for intercontinental distance on the same amount of fuel. It also allows for internal bomb bays, which adds to the aerodynamics (which further adds fuel efficiency), and would more easily fool the early radar systems of the era.
Unfortunately, flying wings require Fly-By-Wire technology for any sort of stable manoeuvring. That, and many other required engine technologies meant that such large aerocraft with such long range were just too ahead of their time.

yup, but the Bf 262 used that technology

FUNNY, I THOUGHT THE AMERIKA BOBMER LOOKED FAR BETTER.

The Amerika Bomber was a project to develop intercontinental bombers, not aerocraft themselves. The Me-264 was simply one of the many designs submitted.

The Me-264 looked different (though you kept the fuselage). But hell with it, this is an awesome design. One rarely sees push-pull layouts, not to mention the jet-prop compound. Nice.

This is a version that was conceived by Messerschmitt but never left the drawing table. Which is kinda bad since other than the fact that it would have been used by a totallitarian, imperialist regime to terrorize innocent civilians it would have been pretty awesome.
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah. The version that flew was more conventional; four engines driving four propellers in a tractor configuration.

I'm totally new to 3D,and I'm learning thanks to the folks on mil-mesh...so we're not all topguns!

This is awesome!
Your website is great too.
Please share it on military-meshes.com

thanks for the words and thanks for the inviting. Indeed I was part of military meshes some years ago.
I like to learn with forums, but I don't really like to be a part of them... there are a lot of people that know too much about 3D. I feel unconfortable sometimes. I'm not bad at 3D, but I'm far from good. I prefer to keep myself excluded from the "topguns".
Even so, thanks!
