I'm dabbling with a pulp style Interwar adventure featuring a team of "troubleshooters" equipped with Gloster Gladiators. In the story they travel to Peru on an SAR mission and of course encounter Nazis! And of course the Nazis have their own planes! The premise is that the planes are for "reconnaissance" over the Peruvian desert. But of course they are armed, and the German planes should be somewhat superior— but not full-on Bf 109s! Any recommendations for the Nazis? I don't mind using prototypes! (Though the He 100 are probably too capable.) |

Precursor to a Focker Wulf FW 200 long range patrol. Using planes with a maritime theme could give you lots of different ideas to wargame? Regards Allan |

An HE 51, also available as a seaplane variant. Cool, but not superior to the Gladiator. The HE 100 or 112 if you want something a little odd-ball. |

Arado Ar 68 is a possibility. |
