Why? 1000USD per each cockpit model and 1000USD per external model doesn't sound too much, taking in account, that making one cockpit takes from 1 to 3 months of a full-time work. I guess, 1000USD/month is less, then minimal wage for USA, or EU. So what is so difficult to understand?

Oh, I just got it... You, actually, ask, why it is so cheap?

Plea for a Pe-8 with diesels (ignore the engine is from a Tiger):

What a beautiful music!!!

That's what I call heavenly sounds from hell

Edit: it seems the Tigers didn't use diesels but the T34 did.

Looking at the screens,it looked done.
Anyone know were I can find the SB and IL-4 development SS?
And what other planes are being worked "secretly"?

Thanks Jameson, but that's no diesel.

Guys, please forgive me but you are straying waay off topic! And, by the way, the Maybach that powered the Tiger was not a Diesel

Nor was the Maybach HL 120 TRM used in the pzkpfw IV and later pzkpfw III or the Maybach HL 108 TR engine used in early pkzpfw III. German tanks tended to be petrol engines.

The V12 petrol HL 210 P45 and HL 230 P45 were used in both Panthers and Tigers. A good article:

.. and yes as usual WAY off topic.

Not off topic, The subject on the last page was the Pe-8, so I wrote about my wish for the diesel version.
