even some classical war drum beats are better than our pipe bands, I mean for a war atmosphare, nothing against the band ^^ itself.

The pipes are actually Scotish and ironically Pak is also one of the biggest pipe manufacturers in the world ...

Composer name is Per Kiilstofte.

You can find his and other such similar theme music by other people at this channel:

"two steps from hell" band is probably the most famous kind of theme music out there right now (a lot is used in hollywood movies these days for general inspiring theme):

You can look up their channel and other videos as you want.

@Nilgiri bro hi and how are you?

@Nilgiri bro hi and how are you?

Fine bud. Hope you are well too.

What a sexy bomber.

Aesthetically yes. Operationally the 88 was a gem at its role too (fighter/bomber).

But Germans never mass produced and operated a reliable heavy strategic bomber. They got into the USSR conflict early, got stuck and sapped (as we all know) and never had the resources to commit to this program (Amerika bomber etc)....and their medium and light bombers just couldn't do the job in the end...especially not with their factories and airstrips getting blown up during the middle and end of the war.

The He - 177 doesnt count either, it just was not a reliable platform and had too many constraints in its operation from what I remember. There's a very important reason I count only bombers with 4 engines or more back then as truly heavy and reliable .

All well here too.

But wait HE-111 was a bomber and a good one too :p

Yep we can also call it a heavy fighter/dive bomber they used these in sooo many different roles.

Yea i have read about it too it had many technical problems.
