Of course, the Messerschmitt Me 210 is well known as not being a double Me 110 (Zwilling)...
Of course, the Bf 110Z-2, as the Do 17Z-2 (see below), is well known as being a Zerstörer not a Zwilling...
BUT why not enriching the family with a Bf 110Z-11 Zwilling? I may try to work on this...

A book presentation on the Web listed the Dornier Do 217Z Zwilling project:
http://www.deutschesfachbuch.de/info/detail.php?PHPSESSID=sp&isbn=3763760377
I have bought the book, but no, it was just another code for the Do 217J.
Yes, but what if…?

close but no cigar. since the HP 54 is asymetrical the fields of defensive fire are also asymetrical therefore the plan was to have an even number aircraft in a formation with the layout of half the aircraft being mirrored to give heavy defensive fire to the outside of the formatin without lugging along a heap of guns that are only likely to hit friendlies anyway. (of course i realise the drawing shows a torpedo bomber and i don't thinkn those fly in massive strategic bomber like formations but it was such a good idea
