B-25J Mitchell - 345th BG, Air Apaches
I've wanted a dark green bomber ever since I saw Dan Siskind's B-25. When I started designing this plane I didn't think I'd be able to create a glass nose I was happy with so I chose the gunship model. During the process I figured out the glass nose that I ended up using on the B-25B (which was a way to test my B-25 design for structural stability in a much cheaper color than dark green), but really wanted to have a gunship version with 8 nose guns and the eagle head. I ended up building a glass nose module for this plane as well and will take some pictures of it at some point.
This plane retains the same working landing gear, bomb bay doors, bomb release mechanism, crew hatch, swiveling top turret as the B-25B. It adds two waist gun positions and a tail gun that has two axes of motion.
The chief logo was designed by Vasilije Injac. If you need something designed, I can't recommend him enough. He is tagged in these photos and I will post some pictures of the design of the logo.

It has since been repainted to a different Air Apaches scheme.
