B-25H with the 75mm cannon in the nose to go along with its dual side mounted 50 cal. twin packs and its 6-50 cal. in the nose. Have one of those for taking out VHs, GVs, ships, etc.

I kinda suspect that when you guys get the buffalo you're going to be a tad disappointed. The "exchange" rate was due to the difference in pilot quality and motivation, it had very little to do with the actual airplane. The buffalo will get hammered by everything in AH except possibly the C-47.
Still would be very cool to see it - I could use the easy kills :D .

     We have a D-13 here at the Museum of Flight in Seattle and it has 3-20mm. It's also air worthy. They fired it up just before they brought it up here. It's also for sale for around $3.5m if anyone is interested.[/IMG]

Ah yes The B-29 is my number one wish.... NO nuke, just the best bomber in the world at that time.  The B25H would be a hoot too.

confused.. how?


you do know the 335 had a prop in the rear of the plane also, making it a twin engine, 1 pushing 1 pulling. fastest prop plane of WWII  IIRC.
I don't know what to put here yet.
