Ju-52, Henkel 111, Fairy swordfish, PBY catalina all make a certain amount of sense.

The rest of your list is prototypes that never saw action, late late war monsters that would unbalance the arena, or just plain silly.

If AH were to do a glider it should be the Waco, and a C-47 should be able to launch 2 of them.

If AH is going to do Flying Boats I want Mavis, Emily, Short Sunderland,and the Connnie along with the PBYs.

While I would love to try my hand with a Fairy Swordfish, the whole line has virtually zero use in AH. They'd be SEA birds only.
Can you Imagine what a 190D9 or La7 would do to a slow wallowing biplane?

We need Japanese bombers most of all,
Betty or late war equivilent, a 1943,44 dive and torp bomber.

Followed by a Russian bomber, then the Henkel 111.

Think it through again.

Only planes that you listed that I would mind seeing added, too many late war planes you said.  The planes that I would like to see the most is the b25 and the gloster meteor.  Definately need more early war planes.

The Skyraider didnt enter service till 1946

I was told that Skyraider enter service just in days before WWII ended since first prototype Skyraider was first flown in March 18, 1945.  Skyraiders were supposed to replace Curtiss SB2C Helldriver during WWII and after the War, production of A-1s increased and replaced Curtiss SB2C Helldriver before Korean Conflict.

The F7F would be good IMO...:)

F7F Tigercat were too late to see action in WWII and same for F8F Bearcat, but Bearcat came close than Tigercat.

The P-39Q is one of the best candidates for addition IMO.  MA capable, widely used on the eastern front by the russians, adds an american and a russian aircraft at the same time.  Big gun. 4x .50 MG's to back it up

Whats not to love?

What is up with new people requesting things before they are in game?  Anyway, I don't think a lot of the aircraft in that list would be worthy of AH, you named a whole list of aircraft and a half.  I know it's just something to think about but wow.  


Was aerial refueling even used in WW2?  Can't remember ever hearing about it however it was used before that to show it could be done between biplanes.  B25 and P39 sounded the best in there as well as the I-16, however, it seems like this list may have been thrown together without much thought to current planes.:(

No it wasn't, it wasnt untill the cold war that aerial refueling became common practice.  It almost looks like the original poster hasn't even played the game, given that he's asking for the F6F....

Not to mention a few of those aren't even ww2 aircraft.
