Introduction

かの科学の国で開発され、数多く量産・運用された双発爆撃機Do 17、その改良後継機Do 217の後期型です。
高出力エンジン採用による充実の爆弾搭載量、さらに大型戦艦に一撃で大ダメージを与える脅威の対艦誘導徹甲弾、Fritz-Xを運用可能な本機は、対戦艦攻撃に有効です。
(※対艦誘導弾の火力は、雷装に表示されます)

This is an improved version of the mass-produced and widely deployed twin-engined Do 17 bomber developed by the country of science, the late-model Do 217.
Its payload is greatly increased with the addition of high-powered engines, and it carries a guided anti-ship bomb, the Fritz-X, that is a threat capable of dealing extensive damage to large ships, being very effective against battleships.
(※The strength of the guided anti-ship bomb is reflected by the torpedo stat)

Mechanics

Land-Based Attackers  bomber   are the main type of bomber used on LBAS. Their most important stats are "torpedo"   against regular ship, and "dive bombing"   against Installations, as well as their "combat radius"  .

LBAS Special Bomber bonus: [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Mod}_\text{Sp1} = 1.50 }[/math] against (F)BB(V).

This plane has Anti-Air Resistance.

Trivia

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.
