The Dornier Do 17Z-7 is a specialized version of this legendary machine, also known as the \"flying pencil\" due to its slender silhouette. This variant was used as a night fighter (German: Nachtjäger) by the Luftwaffe and played a significant defensive role for Germany during Allied bombing raids.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    The Do 17Z-7 was an evolution of the earlier Do 17 bomber versions, which had served in the Luftwaffe since the beginning of the conflict. The Z-7 version was adapted for night missions by installing Lichtenstein radar and armament tailored for countering Allied bombers, including upward-firing weapons (the so-called Schräge Musik).
