Re: B&V Ha139 help

Hi all,
I wonder if anyone can comment on what I think I am seeing with the differences between V-1 , V-2 and V-3 of these planes with regard to their engines.
The civilian planes SEEM to have had different engines compared with Ha-139 V-3 (the minesweeper). In that looking at the photos the engine nacelles extend across the top surface of the wings to the flaps and underneath to the air-intakes. On the military V-3 the nacelles/housings only go about 1/4 to 1/3 the way across the wing!?? Or am I seeing things?? I have checked a LOT of photos including some German only publications.
any comments help appreciated.
