The in-game photos of stukas show them to be historically correct.

Oh, I was just joking, but yeah, I didn't notice that.

Well hopefully it's only limited to the packshot.

Nobody noticed me in the Spit :( (Just you guys arguing about the fixed undercarriage). Seconds before my onboard camera took this picture I shot off the undercarriage. Hope we have this cleared now. :-) Take a good look at the boxart. You'll see parts of the undercarriage flying around.

Judging by your angle of attack you must have had to shoot through the wings to hit the undercarriage.

It possibly could have been a depiction near the end of the war, Stukas had such a low life expectancy that they must have stopped giving them landing gear :lol:

Well, i think it is blown off on the right wing, because you can see that theis is somthing on the left wing, through the smoke. Either way, its just box art, i'm sure the game is fine.

Oh ok. Now that I've stared at the pic forever I can see that it's just the smoke that's obscurring the legs of the undercarriage. I mistook the smoke for the background clouds since they are almost the same color.

Then again, I haven't been looking at the one from a few posts earlier. I have been looking at this one:
