Umm...not always.

How does a mid-war plane with 3 X 20mm X 200-250rpg,  2 X 12.7mm X 300 rpg, a speed of 385 mph at 22,965.88 feet, a 41,666 ft service ceiling, that could out fly most 109's and 190's get cut?  

It got cut because of the people like you who voted for something else.
See how that works?

IMHO The b25 can't and shouldn't win for the same reason the a26 is unlikely to win... namely, we are up to our necks in twin engine medium attack/ bombers... who cares?  why do we really need another one?

The HE111 was the only interesting bomber presented, and while I would like to see it, I know it will not make the cut.

I think the Yak would be an interesting addition, I think the 39 needs to packs its bags, because it has no place in the main.

The G55 didn't make it for the same reason you'll never see a french plane... Nobody likes a quitter.  Italy dropped like a sack, and was never much of a story in the airwar (with the exception of a few battles)... You can't expect anyone to get behind that, no matter what the plane might have been.

The Buffalo was obsolete 12 months before the first shot was fired, it never had a prayer as a MA machine... I know the fin's love it, but no one else cares.

I like the 410 for personal reasons, I'm not certain its the best choice for the arena, but it is the one my money is on, and based on what I am seeing, I think it will be in the final round.

As an American, I'd like to tell all you U.S. bashers, that we are not so ego-centric that we can't tell when too many U.S. planes are already in the pool.  I'm really hoping for the 410, the yak3 or the HE111 (although it'll only get used in events and will be a MA hanger queen).

B-25 will win, because people want to do the Doolittle Raid they have seen on TV. Yes, I know we wont get carrier bases 25s, but they don't, and they refuse to belive...

Oh jesus.... I can just see the Country buffer now....


"wtf!>? Why can't I take my B-25 off the carrier!!??" "Tehy did it in perl harber!"

I'll have to squelch so many people.

I just have a picture in my head of the HTC staff sick,by the way people are acting and bashing others ideas,wish's and pushing there own opinions and such on others.

"this plane sucks,and here is why"
'this plane also sucks,and here is why"
"this plane is alright,and should be added, because i like it"

Doubt we will see this system in the future.

Agree 100%

Don't agree 100%. Those statements are incorrect and even offensive.

I'd like to see it, or a Yak 3... and as time goes by, the 410 option is getting more and more sexier....

Gian,
dont pay attention to that dweeb clown of Kurt. Why clown? Read above. Why dweeb? Take a look at his scores  

BTW, no French fighter and so few italian planes is another demonstration of the lack of a good marketing mind in AH2.

Italian 4^ and 1^ Stormo are near to ZERO paying players from the about 40 they were. WTG.

I don't play for scores.  In my experience the people who do are the dweebs around here.  Go back a few months and then call the guy with a 12% hit ratio a dweeb based on score... If you're going to go look at peoples score pages, at least learn that rank is the least important number.

And I'm taking this month off from AH anyhow, so its no surprise that time is low too.

Anyhow, lets score this based on who can complete his thought without name calling.  Oh, looks like you lose.

Not intended to offend Gianlupo.  Every country made sacrafices, every countries soldiers fought honorably...  I wouldn't expect your opinion of the actions of each country to agree with mine.

Apologies for any error in my understanding of the Italian air war.

[Gianlupo]

Apologies accepted.

So now the question of the day - When the winning plane is chosen, how long before we get it in the game?

First one that says 2 weeks is a homosexual...

GO B25!!

Never going to happen  When have they ever said how many subscribers they have???  Though I would like to know how many said "I don't care".

Let's face it folks...ALL these planes should have been added long ago.  Think back to how many additions have been made in the last 3 or 4 years.  The Jeep, T-34 and the Stuka (oh yeah, and the RV-8).  Although nifty in their own way, it's just not enough.  

I appreciate the effort made to enhance the graphics and the cockpits, but I'd really rather have a full set of WWII aircraft and tanks.  More and different planes and tanks are the one thing that people consistantly ask for on this forum, so much so that "Wish List" has become its own category.  

In my humble opinion it would be better to lessen any further effort on TOD and concentrate on the desires of the customer base.  I've always had the impression that TOD was a pet project rather than something the customers really wanted anyway.  

I've been a confirmed AHII addict now for more than 7 years, but the lack of new aircraft and vehicles is really starting to wear at me, and I'm sure, many of you.  It seems to me that the HiTech crew gambles on that addiction, relying on the players coming back no matter what.  

My apologies if I have inflamed any anger in my fellow players or HiTech for that matter.  I just want some new stuff.

Thanks
