The CT is neither historical nor any more "real" then the main. It’s a main with a limited plane set. Everything you see in the main happens in the CT.
In an arena where you have base capture as a rule then all sides need to have similar capabilities. They aren’t recreating history they are playing a game. Even with the Ki-67 as a stand in it carries a limited bomb load and as long as it isn’t at 16k + it isn’t any faster then the allied fighters.
The Betty max speed 272 mph (438 km/h) at 15,090 ft (4600 m)
The Peggy max speed is 334 mph (537 km/h) at 19,980 ft (6090 m)
At 15k the Peggy does 316 or so...
Both the Betty and Peggy are similarly armed.
The Ju-88 has much weaker defensive armament. When the Ju-88 was subbed in for the Betty folks complained of its bomb load and interestingly enough its "toughness". You would see the return of dive bombing JU-88's with huge bomb loads porking CVs or doing suicide torpedo runs with their 6 torpedos per formation etc...
Folks didn’t want the Ju-88 they wanted no axis offensive capability other then the Val and Kate. A quick comparison of the Ki-67 vs. the Ju-88 in the CT seems to indicate that the Ju-88 with its larger bomb load would have a great impact then the Ki-67. In fact the only way the Ki-67 becomes troublesome is when folks chase after them. Left alone you would hardly know they are there.
I did not say the Boston didn't belong or shouldn't be used. What I said was that folks complained of the ki67s speed. When folks complained about the Ki67 they weren’t complaining just on historical reasons.
They said it was too fast period neglecting the fact that the Boston was faster.
'42 - '43 in New Guinea / Solomon’s the Boston didn’t make up the majority of Allied bombers either.
In the CT they just recently subbed the Boston for the Blenheim in the CT for ‘41 Circus btw...
Let’s not pretend were talking about “historical accuracy”.
