I remember seeing the plane in a movie. It was flown quite often in WWII, but I can't remember it's designation. I've seen it flying at an air show, and I also saw it in an Avition Muesum. Not sure if that one ws flyable. Maybe some of you history buffs will remember its designation.
Anyway, I would love to to see it added to our sim!
Here is a pic of one after getting vulched by a squad of P-47's. I believe it was serving in Africa, considering the terrain.

That's the Bayerische der Fisherwerke Gu-370 "Gullibal", used in Operation Arkplatz in 1942

Ahhh, yes. This one was designed by the great Riel Dumaß.

I believe an aiport was named after him somewhere near Wiesboden.
I could be mistaken on the city.

It was specifically designed to use the HS 293 Anti shipping missle against allied fleets.

The Object Viewer should say 1939. The pre~war red/white around the swastika. Was that movie supposed take place before WW2?

Word has it that it was remotely piloted to an enemy held airfield. After landing, it would remain motionless on the airstrip until the unsuspecting ground crew approached. The plane would then spring into action by turning and burning around, chasing the hapless crew and mowing them down with its deadly props. The two brave troops pictured here were unsuccessful with the molotov attack as shown.

I think that picture is from Indiana Jones (1).
Am I wrong? mr Inidana down left in the corner.

I'm afraid you're mistaken my friend. That isn't the infamous Dr. Jones pictured above. But don't feel bad, it's an easy mistake to make.
The two individuals pictured above are indeed elite shlock troopers. You can tell that by the distinct uniform the one on the right is wearing. They were all issued fedora's and leather jackets to confuse the enemy into thinking they were all Dr. Jones. Problems arose when they would call out "Dr. Jones, I presume..." at roll call and everyone would respond. The unit was formed April 1st 1938 and the individual on the left is obviously an officer as he appears to be wearing slacks and high heels; standard issue for the "SchoktuntAwed" troopers.
