what i mean was the the SM.79 was primarily an anti-shipping aircraft, the SM.81 was used as a bomber, but not for anti-shipping..................
 
Ok in that you do have something. The Sm. 79 was a bomber design that like other older designs moved to shipping. So let us take one at a time if you like.
 
ok. I could agree with you about that, as it was used in as much as they good and the only other one I could think of was the MC 202. The fighter did ok, but was not that great. The 79 did have some good kills on shipping, but it never got the fighter support or the number of planes to do great things. Also the design was getting old.
 
I voted for the CR 42. My favorite though is the SM 79. Thats gotta be one of the best looking planes of any era! 8)
 
I think some of the trimoters are very nice. At first I did not like them that much, but they have grown on me a bit. The Do.24 is a good one and it had a very good war record.
 
I don't like it for a bomber as the best position for a bombardier and bombsight is being occupied by an engine.
