The Do 217 K2 is an upgraded version of the Do 17. This variant saw combat from the middle to the end of the war, and was also a test bed for many experimental weapons which includes the Fritz X. The Fritz X is a radio-guided anti-ship glide bomb. Unlike the Hs 293 that had mixed to poor operational results, the Fritz X saw more success and was credited with sinking the Italian Battleship Roma and severely damaging HMS Warspite. The particular plane on the equipment card is from the Kampfgeschwader 100 particularly the III./KG 100 unit which were operational in the Mediterranean.
