Because HiTech doesn't like you.

DANGIT!!! Hitech said that if we could go for 10 days without anybody asking, we'd get it next update, but if we couldn't keep quiet we'd never get it! This was DAY 9!!!


Thanks a LOT, man!! :furious :furious :furious

I beleive when the game was in it's infancy it was decided to come up with a "different" two engined bomber than the B-25. Seems like at the time everyone had a B-25, noone had the B-26. In fact, I remember thinking the B-26 would be the one to have vrs the B-25. Pyro agreed with that so we got the B-26. I'm not saying that I had anything to do with it, Pyro and I just happened to think the same thing at the same time.

I would like to see the B-25 but it is slower than the B-26 and not near as sexy ;)

I'd rather have an A-26 than a B-25, although both would be nice.

I think that applies to several choices made in the first generation of aircraft, like having the G-10, which was K-4 data (WB had a K-4) but with 20mm, gondolas, and rockets, to simulate the G-10 options.

I think there are a handful that were chosen "just to be different".

While I can respect that, since HTC has made "those other games" look like a bunch of mooks, maybe it's time to add a few "bbs dork favorites" despite the fact that they were used in now defunct games. Like, as an example, the B-25, the P-39, the SeaHurri, the A-26, or anything else that I personally would like to have.

Just guessing but for WarBirds Pyro and HT had created the B-25 so it might have been to avoid potential issues with WB.

BTW- having multiple Tango's is now getting a bit confusing!!! :rolleyes:

B-25 IS WWII or did you possibly read it wrong?
