How many different models did Mikoyan-Gureyvich produce during WWII?
Personally, I wouldn't mind seeing some of the late war versions in play. Seems odd that a nation that produced such a vast volume of aircraft and vehicles in the war is so poorly represented.

I agree.. the following should be considered a minimum...

Yak1/3/7 at least one of each
Yak9D should be added and possibly Yak9UT as a perked plane
Yak9U got it
Yak9T got it
Mig3
LaGG 3
La5FN got it
La7 got it
Pe2
Pe10
Il2 got it

Huge holes in the russian plane stack...

The Japanese plane stack is almost as bad as the russian

The Il-10 is also needed as a late-war attack plane. It's not as heavily-armored as the Il-2 (the Il-2m3 is needed, too), but it's faster, and has more armaments.

I hate to revisit this old and stale topic, but there is something we could use as an allied equivalent of the Tiger...

The Mig3 would be a nice addition (in fact it was the first plane I think I ever requested, lo these 5 years ago). However, I'd rather have the Yak-1 for early Soviet efforts.

As far as the Yak-7, I don't think we really need it. The performance differences should be fairly subtle between contemporary 1's. Plus the 7s are uglier.

I was wondering where the Migs were two years ago, I just stopped wondering & started grabbing stuff & going for joyrides across the map. Why just today I upped a PT boat for no particular reason, just to go for a boat ride. Drove all the way across the pond just to beach it at an enemy base. Were you guys aware you can't realistically beach a PT? It sort of lies half in & half out of the ground & flips up & down.....I've flown off the map for a while looking around too.

Migs would be a good addition though. Any new stuff to stave off the boredom a while longer.
