Yep, the Betty would be a very good addition, as would  the He 111.

Mostly, I'm interested in planes that would add to scenarios.

In something that slow and maneuverable, how could the other guy slow down enough to get a decent shot??  :)  Also consider that its mostly fabric and light wood, cannon rounds would be next to useless unless you hit the engine.  Can you imagine a flight of them on a torp raid?  Taranto anyone?  :)

1946 opens for a lot of planes.
P-80 and an upgraded Meteor.
Or DeHavilland Hornet, F7F, F8F etc...
It was very interesting to carry out the flight trials at Rechlin with the Spitfire and the Hurricane. Both types are very simple to fly compared to our aircraft, and childishly easy to take-off and land. (Werner Mölders)

P-40N....why not? It was more commonly produced than the B and E....could carry 5 500lb bombs instead of 1, same gun package, and faster....what more do you need?????????



as a side note, I love Hondo's choice of A-26 Invader

I've wanted the A-26 forever.   I gave up asking a long time ago.  I would also like to see the A-36 "Apache" 4 x20mm,  ground attack verison of the P-51, early model. Allison engine.
