Germans needed that in 42. Can anyone tell me why they didn't bother to make a long range bomber?

Behold the beauty of the H-177

The madmen!

>>33047704
They used the 177 as dive-bombers. Truly they were mad.

Nice air power. Shame, if something were to happen to it.

There must have been a range of reasons and issues. I personally don't believe the Germans had any long terms plans. I don't believe they looked further then 1940. And that was before Barbarossa. Clearly the Germans had no plans for that. Just look at their tanks.

The Panzer 3 was a very good tank for 1940. But the Germans should have considered something way bigger by then.

What would they use it for?

Bombing Britain? The medium range bombers could do that.

Bombing America? Good luck with that, the Amerika Bomber specifications assumed that the Bombers could be launched from Britain, none of the proposals had the range to fly around Britain, bomb the US eastern seaboard, and return to Germany.

Bomb the Soviet factories in the Urals? That's plausible and potentially useful, but then you have to consider the cost benefit of that. Each P-51 costs around $45,000 to produce, each B-24 costs around $240,000. You could buy 5 P-51's and then a bit left over for the price of a B-24. Now for the Germans, would they rather than one He 277, or 5 FW-190's.

>>33047432
There was only so many planes in service during WW2. How you gonna hit 300 if there was like 8 different planes? That's mostly why.

>>33047585
Apart from other things, the German's didn't believe much in bomb sights early on. This meant the Luftwaffe demanded every bomber be capable of dive bombing. That may have been an issue for anyone trying to design a heavy strategic bomber.
