Better yet, we already HAVE a P-38J-25-Lo, because the P-38L-5-Lo we have has the P-38J series engine. Give us a REAL P-38L-5-Lo with -30 Allison engines and the true top speed of over 435MPH, and make our current P-38L-5-Lo the P-38J-25-Lo. And the P-38H-5-Lo, and P-38M. Although the M will likely never even see a single sortie, except by some harcore nutjob.

Yep. And I hate him too. Can't score a damned kill if he's in the same sector with me. Nothing but assists if I can survive long enough to get those.

P38E!

First 38 to score in WW2.  Also the combat version flown first by the 54th FS up in the Aleutians.  No complaints about the cold or anything from those guys too.  And they had reason to complain

[killnu]

but i want the 23mm

[Krusty]

CalDe, all of those numbers are prototypes and captured, do you have any numbers that just show production, or delivered, or any aircraft that were sent to units?

ramzey,

Why "No" to the J2M3 Raiden?  It saw pretty decent usage.  Perhaps you were mistaking it for the J7W1 Shiden?

[EagleDNY]

I'd rather seen the Ki-100 than the raiden.  From what I've read Japanese pilots put up with the Raiden because they needed planes to intercept the B-29 raids, but they didn't really like the plane that much.  As I remember there were many quality control / maintenance issues to deal with, and the plane didn't handle very well (especially compared to the rides they were used to).

[Karnak]

The J2M3 entered service much earlier and in larger numbers than the Ki-100.  It had actually left service and was brought back in to face the B-29s.

Americans who flew it post war praised its handling.  It just didn't have the insanely light wingloading that the Japanese pilots in the mid-war were used to.  Going from an A6M3 or A6M5 to a J2M3 would be quite a shock.

[Phaser11]

Why not the B-29?
 Why was it not included in this game? Many of the aircraft in this game have different copies? Is not one model of a Spit or 109 enough? The B-29 could be limited to a few bases just like the 163 is.

How about an answer, (I'll just ignore the strange answers).  Like the B-25, there is the B-26, Mossie, and others that do the same thing, but it is NOT a B-25. Is it just to hard to design into the game?
