Would the 3 cause the 9U to become a hanger queen...


But for a handful of pilots it already is...

If the P-39 dies this vote, I'll go Yak. I'm going to cling to the P-39 like grim death  in the mean time.:)

1939-1941 = Early War
1942-1943 = Mid War
1944-1945 = Late War

Yak-3 is a Late War plane that does nothing to fill the ENORMOUS Early/Mid war gap in the plane set for the Russians.  The P-39 fills the largest gap in planesets of all the planes still in the voting, including the very versatile B-25 and the incredibly important He-111 for BoB scenario's.

If you're going to use the name of a real squadron as yours, you should at least get the squadron name correct.  It's the 201st Sqd. FAEM "Aztec Eagles" not some anime cartoon name like Shinigami Special Forces.

Tilt, is the 9UT as simple as the 9M to model from the 9U we already have?

Well, if it was up to me (and clearly its not), I would be adding the Ki-43-II to the next update, but im trying to figure whats likely to get "voted" in, and sadly, the EW rides seem to just drop like flies, so, the trick is to keep some interest in the ones that a) Are likely to get voted on, and b) Are at least semi-usefull.

He-111? count me in, but it would never be included in a vote-off, we are going to have to wait for HTC to just decide to model it, like the Brewster and the others...He-111 has as much chance of being voted in by the players as a Pz.11 or a French 1940 plane, that is to say, next to no chance.

Its not a perfect world.

And Like I said, I like the P-39 as choice #2 if the Yak-3 doesnt pan out. If I was a betting man, my chips would be on the P-39 anyways, its a US fighter.

No rules against it but IMO it's an insult to those that served in that unit by tacking on the name of a crappy Japanese anime.
