A high-quality german aircraft. A few problems are evident, however. The engine has not been upgraded in years. While affording high speed, the gearing limits acceleration.
The front fuselage holds no less than four guns in a tight cluster, but this harms the structural integrity of the plane. To simplify this tight cluster of guns, they are all linked to a common trigger; not much of a limitation in a plane with this armament.
The additional crew member (radio man/navigator/ gunner) is an asset in many cases. but this and other features caps the operational range often plane. While not much of a problem in Germany, it limits the Hellhound to zeppelin-basing in America.
The german-style cockpit is neat and has excellent visibility, but is small by american standards. Fitting two big americans in this small cockpit is a daunting proposition.
