VERY nice, Carlo! I have one of these to paint, too - white metal from HBM models before they quit producing miniatures. The whole night-fighting aspect of WWII fascinates me, and I'd really like to put together some planes to play that 'theater' of aerial warfare...
All the best,
Matt
Very nice Carlo. I was wondering what model you have. I've been thinking about getting the one from Shapeways as its the only one I have found.
This is on my to-do list; let me look at things tomorrow morning (when I should be doing other things )

Karl, you are a gentleman and a scholar! Thanks for working up stats for this (when you should be doing something else...)
All the best,
Matt
I don't suppose that Ares would consider including an Uhu in a nightfighter series of models ever?
He.219 Stats
As usual, contradictory information, so heres the best I have. Note: number for this aircraft are small; just less than 300 were produced overall.
The A-2 was slower due to high-drag radar antenna. Only 1 He 219A-7/R6 was made, though a few others may have been converted. The Jumo 222A/B engines were note yet in full production by the end of the war. In general, if Shräge Musik is installed, there were only 2 guns in the ventral tray, plus 2 wing mounted guns.
He 219 A-0: Maneuver: Q** deck: no 45 degree turns nor extreme side slips.
Damage: 22. Ceiling: 11. Climb: 5.
Guns: 6C/C-C-C
He 219 A-2: Maneuver: H**: no 45 degree turns and fast side slip.

Hello Karl, Matt and Peter
Thanks a lot Karl for your complete work about He 219.
Now I can finish my card. As soon as I complete the cards I insert these in custom plane files.
I immediately update your WGS unofficial aircrafts.
It is my "bible" for the unofficials
Have you done some update of version 1.0?
I have bought some interesting 1:200 WWII scale planes:
Me 410, Me 210, Ar 234, FW 189, FW Ta 154, He 162, Meteor and I am preparing non only minis but also cards.
I have also almost finished the last updated release of WWII Jets home rules in english (vera 4.2).
Actually works are slow down because our Italian team of Massa are preparing a big campaign game about Kursk Battle. So I am preparing Ju 87G, Ju87D, Me 109G, Fw 190 A, Petliakov Pe 2, Sturmovick and so on.
Thanks a lot.
Bye
Carlo
I am compiling a list for V2.0, but my work is sporadic. Too much I should be doing with the house, and that's hard.
Distractions are welcome, but then the work doesn't get done

These look splendid, Karl - thanks so much for generating the info! Now I just have to get painting on my Uhu...
All the best,
Matt
Thanks Karl for doing the work for this plane. This is great incentive. After Cold Wars I have to finish up my WW2 might rules.
Looking good Carlo.

Excellent card Carlo! The AIM 219 is not far off production now either.
Run for your life - there are stupid people everywhere!
