The Ze 145 was the Shutoral answer to the Falke menace. It was brought
to Earth around the end of 2885. When viewed from underneath, the
fuselage looked like a 'W'. The horizontal speed, climbing power,
weaponry and strike distance surpassed the Falke, but the armour and
manoeuvrability were still lacking. Fixed armament was four 15 mm
machine guns, with a single 35 mm cannon mounted centre. Other weapons
could also be carried, including a suspended 75 mm gun, rockets, bombs
and other optional equipment.
