Fieseler Fi 98

The Fieseler Fi 98 was a German prototype interim dive bomber.
==Development==
This trim two-bay biplane was Fieseler's attempt to win the Sofort stage of the RLM dive-bomber programme. Planned in 1933, this stage called for a state-of-the-art biplane as a stop-gap until a really formidable forward-thinking dive bomber could be created. From the start the Hs 123 was favoured, and only two Fi 98 prototypes were ordered as a back-up - the second was never completed. Planned armament was two synchronized MG 17, and four 110 lb (50 kg) bombs could be carried under the lower wing.
