The Blohm & Voss BV P.170 was designed in 1942 but never built. 2000 kg (4400 lbs.) of bombs could be carried in under-wing mountings. The project's speed was thought to preclude interception, thus no defensive armament was to be fitted.

Interesting to think we make toys for planes that could have been but never were.

A design based on this was used in the game "Crimson Skies" under the name Curtiss-Wright P2 Warhawk. It was supposedly built in 1932. "Crimson Skies" used lots of designs that never flew in real life.

That game was fantastic, wish we got more wacky flight games like that, like ever.

All the more appropriate, since Richard Vogt did spend some time in Japan...
