How about some Russian,Japanese, and Italian planes first?

Russian DB-3F and TB-7

Japanese "Tony" and "Jake"

 Those first then :D

As for the "Baka"bombs, maybe making them unable to eject, as you would have been locked in anyways, and count as more than one death for the flyer to even out the ease of just flying a bomb into a building or ship?

No, I was just using a Japanese word, one which very accurately describes the poster I quoted.

I take it posting the translation is a rule violation

I realise the redundancy of these since they allready have simular aircraft but I'd like to see:

the Navy PBJ-1 or at least a Navy Skin for one of the B-25s.

and the Navy PB4Y-2 Privateer, a modified B-24, with the Single tail, double top turrets, blister turrets on the sides, no ball turret on the bottom, and nose and tail guns.

and finally the nightfighter variant of the A-20 (P-70), with 4X 20mm Cannons in the nose.


 :pray
P-70 would be perked, its a radar fighter w/ 4 X 20MM right (nightfighter=needs for radar)?  and as Subway said, we need for axis planes like italian and japinese.

I've seen it translated as "fool", "stupid" and "idiot".

Wonder if more b-25s flew off a cv deck than 109-Ts? ;)
But, Bf.109T's served more operational sorties than the B25 did off a carrier. Though I haven't found if they had a tail hook when serving in Helgoland with 11./JG11.
Still, a 109E with a larger wingspan... think Dora to 152... out-turning Zeroes...  :rock

Well they did launch B-25s from a carrier....... :devil

Only once...and IIRC it was a different model B25 (A B25D maybe?)

would you really want to fly a b25 without guns/ammo and very limited fuel/ords?

Like they want to fly back anyway. They just want to pork & auger and grab more carrier launched B25's.... rinse and repeat.

Well, this game is semi-historic...

What about Dolittle's raid they had B-25's, but B-26's cant be launched. C-47s could land and launch from CV's as well with wep and full flaps they could launch.
