Here we have the Junkers Ju 287: the fuselage from an He 177 A-5, the tail of a Ju 388, main undercarriage from a Ju 352, and nose wheels taken from crashed B-24 Liberators. Two were built.

Sorry, but this looks like someone trying to improve on an Arado AR234 and failing horribly.Here we have the Junkers Ju 287: the fuselage from an He 177 A-5, the tail of a Ju 388, main undercarriage from a Ju 352, and nose wheels taken from crashed B-24 Liberators. Two were built.
Did any actually fly?

Almost as ugly as Barracuda!
To really appreciate the Barracuda, it is best viewed from the rear, on the ground

Or as the crews used to sing
"Any old ire, any old ire,
Any, any, any old iron
Down at Lee you get them free,
Built by Faireys for a crew of three
Bags of fun, no front gun,
An engine you can't rely on
You know what you can do
With your Barracuda too
Old iron, old iron."
