A Goliath remote controlled bomb would be good. Rare stuff like that is unlikely to be done by ED themselves. A Bren Carrier, which Bovvy also has an example of, or a Chieftain would be great too. A Daimler Dingo, and any of the Hobart's funnies would work very well with the D-Day theme too perhaps?

German WW II Buzz Bomb?

"Yeah, and though I work in the valley of Death, I will fear no Evil. For where there is one, there is always three. I preparest my aircraft to receive the Iron that will be delivered in the presence of my enemies. Thy ALCM and JDAM they comfort me. Power was given unto the aircrew to make peace upon the world by way of the sword. And when the call went out, Behold the "Sword of Stealth". And his name was Death. And Hell followed him. For the day of wrath has come and no mercy shall be given."

Will you update this so it works in DCS 2.5.5?

 

EDIT:

It turns out it does work in 2.5.5, however, the issue for me was that I did not think it worked because the model simply was not visible in the world when the mission was running, only in the F10 map and in the mission editor before.

This was fixed by deleting the folder containing the mod in the Mods folder in saved games and unzipping the file again and putting the same content back. It then appeared again in the mission. Wierd.

Its a similar problem that I had with the Civil Aircraft Mod where the aircrafts navlights and strobes where missing and replaced with white cubes. This was also fixed the same way.

I have my Mods folder liked with junction links in windows 10 to another harddrive perhaps that is what causes it.
