First delivery June '42, but not enough delivered to even equip a single squadron until Sept '42. Not used by navy due to the teething problems until Guadalcanal in Feb '43. The changes in the f4us were implemented on the production line after plane #600, those being "F4u1As" which is what AH has I believe.

So it would be a '43 plane in AH.

I never said it was an early war plane but it is not a '44 plane like you said.

Was it in state-side sqn's at that time? When was it actually introduced into combat?

The P-38F was in combat by August '42. For AH purposes the P-38G is identical to the F save for different engines (though of equal power rating) and radio equipment.

Consider, however, the early war planes... You've got the P40B, the P40E, and the F4F...... What do you think the P38G will do to all of those?

I wouldnt be afraid to fight a P-38G in either the F4F or F-40E.

That's riiiight.. it will blow them all to hell. Have to keep it balanced. Besides if you want to go by earliest dates, the Fw190 is a 1939 plane [/B]

So are the F4U and P-38 (well, ok, the F4U is May '40).

Its not mostly ponys vs chogs and u4s because they arent perked.

Next week should be 109s vs 190s.

Well it was fun until the gang bang MA dweebs showed up. We had a great series of fights 1v1 and 2v2 (not ganging up) between 11 and 10. Then BAM 15 people join at once and all of a sudden A11 is being vulched and swarmed by 6 enemy cons, I take off from the next closest field and am ganged by 6 enemy all at once, all of them hovering over A11.

Like I said, it was fun before the tards showed up.

Two items changed tonight:

P-38G was added  to A11, and field ack lethality was upped to .7 from .4 to hopefully deter some of the field vulching.  If the vulching gets too out of control, I will continue to up the ack lethality.

All in all, looked like folks were having a decent time of it tonight, hope the good fights continue

Here's the problem: There's only 1 really early "army" plane, the P40B.

The f4u1 is a late war bird. All f4us didn't show up until the latter half of the war. Hell F6F is a '44 bird isn't it?

Only things that showed up '43 or sooner should be listed as "early" and that means the pickin's is slim.


Do we really need all f4us? Can't we just have the 1a 1d and be done with it? Or if you want a high end equal to the USAF planes put in the -4 as well.

Same for P47s. Do ya need 'em all? Just put in a few.  etc etc

Dec 28 1942, VMF-124 declared operational with the F4U-1


Jan 16 1943, VF-9 of the USS Essex get the first F6F-3s
