Why?  It would feel almost like an exact copy of the Lancaster.  It would be much better to add a distinct aircraft that fills a gap.  Right now there is no early war Allied bomber for use in the European Theater that the early war Axis fighters can actually catch.  The Wellington B.Mk III would fill that gap with a bomber that is both usable, useful and and catchable by early Axis fighters.  That is much more important than another bomber that fills exactly the same role as the Lancaster.

It's almost the same exact size as the Lancaster. Lancaster in blue, Halifax in pink.

What can i say?  :confused:
You made a thread about a plane that only had about 1 year, maybe 6 months in the War?
If it saw combat it definitely deserves to be in AH2.
I agree, 6 months or not, the plane saw combat, its fast, and is still being talked about.
All in for the P-61?
I'm IN whether you people want it or not. lol

But why do we need the Devastator, (I probably spelled it wrong, and no offense  ;)) but that thing was a waking death trap.
