indeed the pe8 and Pe2 would make a fine addition, besides VVS need all the aircraft they can get, four planes don't cut it:aok

I could gather a list of a couple Soviet planes that arent there already, fighters attackers and possibly more bombers

The question is, who cares about Soviet crates? And there's no reliable performance data for any of them. The ones that already have made it into simulators are a testament to the effectiveness of the Communist propaganda machine. Stalin couldn't have any of his ships' numbers be lower than those of the Western fighters. Unfortunately, simulator developers go with the official line, no matter how shaky.

Su-2 + Yak-4 = pwn

that would be great, mabey there are some more planes for other side besides USSR that could have some improvement.

I say dang yes to the Pe-8. I also say yes to the Yer-2, and the Pe-2. I believe these three were the main USSR bombers. The Pe-8 only having around 85 built total, and the Yer-2 having about 300 built, and who knows how many Pe-2. (I just haven't looked) Oh plz bring the Pe-8 to AH. I want to man a 20mm tail gun and blast a spit off my six.

If HTC decides to add some soviet planes, Pe-8 must be last in the list.

Pe-2 would be the 1st bomber/attacker I would ask for followed by maybe the Il-4 or the Tu-2.

Infact the VVS had many Bostons and in some respects they represent typical VVS bombers (out side of the Pe2 and Il2m3) very well.

Tu-2 is pretty though.

bearing in mind our predominantly 43>45 time set.

Yak3
Yak9D/M

La5F

P-39Q

as we go back in time then maybe consider the SU-2 and the I-16.

I would love the little U-2/Po-2 trainer as a spotter available from Vehicle Fields.

Any soviet planes that can go into the game would be great though the Pe 8 would be my #1 choice, therefore the post.
