Second time I posted that today, thanks Hub. Anyway, there have been multiple requests for this already, in fact there is a post still active.

There should be an actual 'I want a P-61' forum

Right next to 'I want a He-111', 'I want a Ju-52' and 'I want a B-29 with n00k' forums

P-61C didn't enter service until after WWII was over.

I guess that's a valid post since Angus requested an F-15, Blixen.

How many? About ~253

Delivery began in April 1944. The first 34 F7F-1s were similar to the prototypes, then 30 two-seat night-fighter variants (called F7F-2Ns) were produced. Next, 189 single-seat models called F7F-3s were built which featured slightly more powerful R-2800 engines, slightly larger vertical stabilizers, and a 7% increase in fuel capacity.

That was the F7F's top speed, not it's sea level speed. How fast was it from sea level to 5,000ft? That is what matters in AH.

Also you have to know that the F7fluffied be heavily perked if it were ever added, so boasting about running an La-7 down in one is like boasting about doing it in a Tempest or Me262A.

On the deck, the Tempest is the only thing that goes faster than an Lghey, IIRC.
