Do you mean little deuce coupe?


I think the P-39 looks ridiculous.  I can imagine the designers sitting around a table trying to figure out how to do the canopy and one guy saying "Well, we got about a thousand of these here '38 Ford doors, maybe we could use them?"

Do 217 comes first to my mind. Then He 177 or Ju 188.

Ju 290 and Fw 200 were no "real" bombers, basically naval recon planes with added anti-shipping capability.

The 25 is going to win it if some of the most compelling reasons for a new plane all got cut in the first round.

<----- not a happy camper.

B-25's are the featured picture of the day on Wikipedia. Must be a conspiracy. :noid

Well, so much for the Pe-2/Tu-2.

Now I'll back the Me410.

I think if nothing else we can now see just how representative of the the "average" AH player this board is.

I point that HT & Pyro can justifiably quote when posters here dare tell them what would be popular or not.

Yep.  This is looking bad.

I'd point out that some of us have made very accurate predictions while voting for other things.

Just because we back something doesn't mean we don't recognize what is actually popular.

He said he wasn't because he didn't want to skew the results for the subsequent rounds.

The royal "we"?

There were of course many views expressed so some will be "right".....

Its clear top me however that some  BB Lobbies failed to have any meaningfull effect on the view of the general player populace in this case.

I agree.  I'm fond of the P-39...would make a very nice addition to the USAAF...but we have a plethora of US airframes....

Unless they provide us with different variants, I don't really see how they could pick which model of B-25 to give us...no matter what they pick most of the B-25 fans are sure to cry havoc.

He-111 would be great...but it's hard to ask for an aircraft that will probably see little use outside of scenarios and the AvA.

So I'd like to see the Me-410...  I mean...omg haz 2 enginez!!!11oneeleven  :D

Barring that...P-39.  :aok

For a bomber, I'd rather see more variants of the models we already have...perhaps perk the later better protected models, and introduce new early war variants perk free.
