Can some tell me if this design of a secret weapon of the luftwaffe (Junker) is a real design or just a joke?

At some points it looks so damn close to the A-10. I can't find many info about this project which is calles unnamed Junker. Does anyone have more info?

...nobody can tell for sure, but the drawing on luft46.com is taken from a very good researched book called "geheimprojekte der luftwaffe/3" which means "Secret Projects of the luftwaffe".
The author is definitly an expert !!

Thnx, the fact is i can't find any more info about this secret plane, so that's a bit strange I've surfed the whole internet... but no other matches to this plane...

Are there any other strange or unknown CAS aircrafts?

Damn they look ugly...... I know the IL40P.... are they both CAS aircrafts? By the way... strange a tailgunner in a jet... must make you sick when you're on the backseat.

they were both designed as CAS jets.
But the decision was made for the Su-25 Frogfoot.
