as long as they leave out American planes, otherwise we'd get the A-26. Russian Bomber, Japanese fighter/bomber, Brewster Buffalo, He-111, ME-410 and my personal nominee He 219 Uhu.

Then we need to coordinate the final vote to be half a percent off so we get two planes again.

And personal request to re-add the American planes, specifically the A-26  :)

TU-2, or a PE-2. Tho I'd rather have a TU-2. Either way we simply have to have a Russian bomber, the need for it being so strong I would even bypass the A-26 or B-29. Best would be a Russian bomber and a new perk bomber.

Why not two bombers in one upgrade?

I have no problem with the A-26, just figure with the B-25 and P-39 being the last 2 AC it's someone else's turn. Pe-2 and He-111 would be a sweet combo.

As long as you mean the A-26, I'd be happy with that  :D

I propose spomething Russian, Italian, Japanese, or even French.  The US, UK, and the Germans are already very well represented.

For aircraft, I'll propose one or more of the following:
Russian TU-2, DB-3, or Il-4 bombers.
Italian SM79-III and P108 bombers.
Japanese Ki-21 bomber.
French D520 fighter or MB175 bomber

For ground vehicles, I think the only current void is a legit tank destroyer, but unfortuneately the US and Germans were really the only countires to employ major numbers of standardized tank destroyers w/ open turrents and all three examples have an open turrent and easily damaged or destoyed via aircraft cannon fire:
US M10
US M18
German Marder III (limited turret traverse should be given [30d?])

As I have stated in other threads, allow the TD's gunner two sight postions.  One in the normal gunsight mode and the other over the top of the turret scanning the battlefield for targets (with high zoom like gunsight).

Rather than vote for a specific aircraft, it would be nice to vote for an aircraft type then let HTC use their judgement to choose which is best to add.

Otherwise we will just get another case of the patriotic American crowd voting for American aircraft.  :P

The British are not well represented.  All we have is the Lancaster, Boston III (an American design) and the Mosquito - all of which need updating.

And I forgot the Beaufighter, so I'd like to second Guppy's request for it.

For a new Fighter, i'd like to see something outta the Soviet set and Japanese set, say maybe a Ki-44, Yak-3/7 (possibly 7 model).

New Bombers: Pe-2/Te-2, HE-111, Beaufighter.

New Gv's: Cromwell, Challenger, T-34/76? (forgot its name)
