I think the P-40N model would be a great addition to the game. It had good turning. it had good ammo and its very good at al alts (correct me if im wrong)

It was only barely comparable with planes already in construction at the time. The -N was a last-ditch effort to keep the P-40 competitive, and it failed.

Now, I guess I wouldn't MIND seeing it, but I don't think we need it or have a gap it would fill.

The P40N does have 6 guns (some only had 4, if I recall to save weight) but the rounds per guns were much less than any other plane. It had about 260 or 250. Whatever the E has, I believe it has the same.

Compare this to 375rpg in naval planes, and 400rpg in later naval planes and later USAAF planes. It was too little too late.

That aside, like I said I wouldn't mind seeing it but I'd hate to have it instead of a mig3 or a yak1 or a (fill in the blank). If there was something more pressing I'd rather have that instead.

Maybe when they remodel the P-40, they'll throw an N model in there.

I think they might add something for the P-40. There was a lot after the -E. I think it's just a matter of waiting for the P40s to be redone (that could take a while).

R for reverse? :D

IMO the P-40N would be nice to fly, but Im afraid it'll leave both the B and the E unused afterwards...
