I hear its a lock on these.

Fighter: Boulton Paul Defiant (manning those guns is going to Rock!) Maybe a light perk though unless they go with the target tug variant.

Bomber: Amiot 143M (one for the French)

Tank: This is a toss up apparently. Odds are either:

The Italian M.13/40

or the

Japanese Model 95 Ha-Go

The new plane is the . Nate told me a few weeks ago as we were brewing up the 2004 edition of Hellfire Ale.

F-16 eagle? Must be a navy boy.

Jagdedpanther, and T34.

If there was going to be a Defiant, why would they perk it? The thing had one of the worst records in the RAF in the beginning of the war and it was pulled from service, if I recall.

Well, if it's the target tug variant, they likely wouldn't have to perk it. But... the one with the 4 .303s in that mannable turret would be monster. Imagine a plane with almost the performance of a fighter, and a buzz saw of lazer .303s in the back. Be a bit rough on the HOs though.

Maybe 8 perks or so, about like the C-hog.
