How about a mosquito FB XVIII with a 57mm cannon....

That could be fun.

I want snoopy's flying dog house.

after that, Id like on a whim, the B24 next, followed by the PBY. maybe not the most needed, but I would enjoy the most.

I'm betting a B-24 is next, but Id say that to fill the largest gap in the planeset we'd need an early war Russian bomber.

Someone posted all the Loose Rivet "episodes" in one compact link. I'll see if I can dig it up

I know we are going to see some US bombers/fighters coming up but honestly I would rather see Japanese or Russian fighters and bombers with a small sprinkling of Italian and German aircraft coming along as well.

Further, not all cannon are equal and the 37mm on the P-39/P-38D was mediocre. Nothing like the NS-37 on the Yak-9T.

We don't need the P-38D because it saw less WWII use than the Ta152H-1.

The P-38F was the first significant model of that aircraft.

First Combat ready 38 was the E model that saw combat vs the Japanese in the Aleutians. 54th FS

F model was the first to get overseas however and would make more sense. Of course in terms of look the F,G, H were pretty much identical with the smaller intakes. If you are looking at the early Pac or North Africa the F and G. If you are talking Europe and midwar pac then the H makes more sense.

D model was not combat ready

Personally I'd like to see the A-26 Invader for the simply wonderful reason that it would get me out of doing work at work for a few days a year. My boss used to fly one in the war, and every so often his grandson who's 10 comes to the office to be babysat. Back when Air Warrior was still around I actually got payed to set him up with a FW and watch him "kill grandpa".

Other than that, I really don't have a reason!

We need them all.

He-111 should be next.

For armor should have M4E8 or T-34

Personal preference . . .

He-111
SM-79
Il-16, Rata
Il-4
Gloster gladiator
Fiat Cr42
P-39
Ki-43

. . . are in my opinion the most needed to flesh out planesets across more years.
