FS2002 FS2004 Blohm & Voss BV-138 flying boats. The unusual configuration of the three engined flying boat BV 138 showed a short hull, high mounted wings and two tail unit beams (giving the plane the nick-name Flying clog). Some BV 138 As were used as transporters for the norwegian campaign in 1940, but late in June 1941 the BV 138 Bs saw their service in the role they were constructed for, as sea-reconnaissance planes. From then on they patroled the North-sea and the Arctic-sea and shadowed the well known North-Cape convoys. The version BV 138 MS was equipped with a mine-sweeping gear and the BV 138 C-1 which was equipped with Radar saw service in anti U-boat attacks. Two kind of models (Type A and Type C with Radar) are included. by Kazunori Ito.
