Sorry for the delay.

Slash, can you adjust the Tower based radar range smaller, for ex. 12 miles, please! That's because the fields are so ner each other in this map!

Thank You!

Yes, thanks, it was fun to fly earlier today. But for some reason the Finns have 262's and 163's enabled on some fields...

That is quite annoying. I believe the jets have no place in this setup, since it's supposed to be 1943'ish. The Finn-Rus war ended in fall 1944 and there were absolutely no jets in Finland during the war.

Ask Storch he can tell you what base....

Doah! Did I just rat out my squaddie?

Actually I thought it must have been Courland due to the late war stuff and no timeline on the MOTD. The jets are at V47 and also the allies have planes available at V16 the Hurri IIc and perhaps others.

while you're at it why not activate the pseudo B239 Buffalo?

eskimo2 · « **Reply #7 on:** December 27, 2004, 08:15:58 AM »

I saw 262s and a Tempest.

Things need to be evened out.

Gee, I'm on an axis squad flying axis aircraft... and it was no small feet getting that 163 up to a forward airfield!:D Only got 4 kills though, can't aim those frikin guns very well.

Would it be possible to have the 109F-4 enabled? It would really help dealing with those pesky La-5's. I know the Gustav had pretty much taken over by '43, but there were still F series planes in service. It would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Pretty sure the freidrich had gone the way of the Dodo by '43 M8.

NM. I was reading a section on the Eastern Front, and misread an E for an F. There was a photo with a caption stating ".......ground attack units retained the 'E' variant well into 1943, after other units had long since changed over to the Gustav...."

I also should have read the section breaking down usage of 109s by various other countries besides Germany. It shows Finland received its first 109's in 1943, 28 G-2 models. The remainder were G-6, G-8 and G-10 models, making a grand total of 150 Bf 109's delivered to Finland.

My bad.

Yak 9U would be nice so I could out run the 109's. Got swamped a bit last night.

Slash27 · « **Reply #13 on:** December 28, 2004, 07:20:24 PM »

G-10 and the 9U wouldnt be out of the question.

TimRas · « **Reply #14 on:** December 28, 2004, 11:59:03 PM »

Finland did not have the G-10. See:
http://www.sci.fi/~ambush/faf/fighters.html#Mersu

The Soviets did not have Yak-9U at Finnish front.

La-5FN is faster than G-2 or G-6 at low altitudes.
