Hi, does anyone know if there are any of these types available for cfs 2? See here:
Do 17 Z-7/Z-10 Kauz I/II After bomber production ended in 1940, the Z model was modified with a "solid" nose from the Ju 88C, fitted with one 20 mm MG FF cannon (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MG_FF_cannon) and three 7.92 mm MG 17s (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MG_17), to be used as night fighters (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Night_fighter). Three prototypes were converted from existing Z-series airframes to the Do 17 Z-7 Kauz I (screech-owl) configuration. Later the design was further modified to the Do 17 Z-10 Kauz II, the solid nose now containing an IR searchlight for the Spanner infrared (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared) detection system. The Z-10 was armed with four 7.92 mm MG 17 machine guns (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MG_17_machine_gun) grouped above the IR light and two 20 mm MG FF in the lower nose. Only ten of these Kauz II designs were converted from existing Z-series airframes. The Spanner system proved to be essentially useless and many Z-10 were left without detection system. At least one Z-10, coded CD+PV, was used as a flying testbed to help developing the Lichtenstein radar (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lichtenstein_radar) system in late 1941/1942.[47] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dornier_Do_17#cite_note-46) Do 215
