They never were used in combat & only seven were built as they ran out of time & materials to build production versions. Still would have been nice to have in the game.

That is correct hence the reason why I said IT WOULD HAVE been nice to have in the game. Plus this is a wish list forum as we all know no matter how hard you wish some things never come true.

At what altitude?

It's things' like that, a lack of detailed flight info, that will most likely keep this bird out of AH. How would you give the aircraft a decent FM without knowing it's performance at all alts?

Its not an American or British buff, doesn't stand a snowballs chance of ever seeing the light of day in here... untill every last Allied ride has been included first. Hey don't be upset with me, I don't write the rules around here I just like to inform you of the way it is.

Seems A Little Too Close To The B-25 As Far As Gameplay...

I can think of a dozen reasons not to add it, but..."too similar to the B-25" is not one of them.  How the heck is it like a B-25?  Much bigger, faster, better defended and with a much heavier war load.

Ah... Wrong PLane... Looked At It Only For A Glance, Etc. NVM.
