Is that the Nazi attempt at building a ripoff of the de Havilland Mosquito? Cause it sure looks like it.

Nope, it was a much heavier plane.

Mostly because the Mosquito was primarily constructed of wood right? It was like the Morgan roadster of the skies.

Yes, the Wooden Wonder. Was famously able to outrun many single engine planes with one engine out of action.

It’s an interesting question. The Germans were heavily invested in the Schnellbomber (fast bomber) concept (rather than the heavy bombers the Allies flew), and the Me 210, though a very flawed aircraft in many ways and only built in small numbers, served as the basis for the Me 410 , one of Germany’s more successful heavy fighters and Schnellbombers . Ironically, the Mosquito, a British aircraft, turned out to be the epitome of the Schnellbomber concept.

It sure was a pretty plane. Too bad it was a flop.

The B6-R3 of the ME-410 is considered to be the A-10 Warthog of Warthunder and WWII due to its armament and its Beeeeeeeert of the MK103 30mm

From a historic perspective it is probably a good thing that it was a flop. From a mechanical perspective it is always a disappointment to see a machine not live up to its potential.
