Well, so far we have U.S Britsh, German, Jap., Russian, and Italy plans.  Lets get some French, Romania, Finland, and Norway aircraft.  I believe the Austra had a few too.

Finland mainly used planes they bought from other countries... Fokker XXI (Belgium I think?) MS. 406 (France) Brewster 239 (US), 109G2/6/14 (Germany)... and they were very successful in them :aok

I haven't heard of many Romanian fighters, mainly the IAR81C... I know some Hungarian and Romanian pilots were attached to German units... and that there were Hungarian and Romanian units that flew the 109.

The only Romanian aircraft that i know is P.11, PZL P.37 LOS, AND PZL P.23 KARAS.  They did have a Italian desgine (Ansaldo Balilla a-1), and French (Breguet 19).

The French D520 is really the only model that wouldnt sink in the AH2 game, IMO. 

Anything else would get eaten alive even by the P40B or Hurri I.

Poland had the PzL, which could turn on a dime but only had 2 MG's for firepower (not to mention it was smurfy).  IIRC, their only success vs Germany was shooting down some He111 upon the initial German invasion.  I'm not sure how it faired vs the Soviets.

Did you know that Poland had dive bombers? PZL.23B P-37B.I think Netherlands should be in here to alot of good fighters and bombers the Fokker D.XXI Fokker G.1A would be nice 2 have.
