No.  [jk]Allies first  :noid  [/jk]

But I still want the Beaufighter before the 111.

What's a beaufortress?

Afk for a year or so.  The name of a gun turret in game.  Falanx, huh? :banana:
Apparently I'm in the 20th FG 'Loco Busters', or so the legend goes.

It'd be nice for the Aussies to have.

Ugly bastage, though.

Beaufighter has to be up the list now for new birds down the line.

Every theater of the war, and all kinds of roles.  Rockets, Torps, bombs, cannons.  What a beast for the job it had.  Not nearly the beauty the Mossie is, but one tough looking bird.

With the fleet ack having improved, going in on a shipping run in a Beau would be interesting :)

Let's be honest- you're just trying to get all the twin engined bombers added.

 :aok Thank's for sharing that one, Furball!

I wouldn't say that. Especially as it is a more widely used A/C than many that have appeared on this wishlist.

One can hope.  Give me one other bird that saw service in that many different theaters from 40-45 and had that many different roles that it did successfully.

The USAAF had a few nightfighter Beaufighters too, so could be skinned in US markings.
