Messerschmitt Me 210 - German heavy fighter. Work on the design
began in late 1930s with a goal of creating a versatile aircraft,
equally capable as a fighter, dive bomber or a reconnaissance
platform. The machine was an all-metal, low-wing monoplane,
featuring twin vertical stabilizers. Full-scale production of the
Me 210 was launched in 1941. The aircraft was powered by a pair of
Daimler-Benz DB 601F engines, each producing 959 kW of power.
Messerschmitt Me 410 - German heavy twin-engine fighter and fast
bomber, meant to be an improvement of the unsuccessful Me 210
design. The aircraft was equipped with new Daimler-Benz DB603A
inverted V engines, rated at 1,750 and 1,850 hp. Powered by those
engines the Me 410 was capable of speeds up to 628 km/h. The
aircraft's armament consisted of two 7.92 mm MG 17 machine guns, a
pair of 13 mm MG 131 machine guns and four remotely-controlled 20
mm MG 151 cannons. The Me 410 could also carry up to 1,000 kg of
bombs. Thanks to its fairly long range and excellent performance
characteristics, the aircraft was often employed in the bomber
destroyer role.
