Seems like the last P-40N thread was locked no more then three days ago because people started hijacking it with He-111 posts. You might want to rethink your post before this ends up like the last one.




Back on topic. The P-40s are old 3d models. When they are remade there's a good chance the P-40N will be added.

Ok, howabout I put it this way: There are many aircraft that are more important to add to AH than the P-40N.  It would be on my list somewhere though.

Not really. P-40N was MASSED produced. Served in all theaters of the war, and had a big impact on the war too. It also served from start to finish. Whether it be front line, scouting, or something else, it did.

Ok, which of these aircraft are less important than the P-40N?

Yak-9D
Lagg-3
Pe-2
He 111
G4M
Do 217
Tu-2
Ki-43

None.

I'd even throw in the Ju-52 before the P-40N so that the axis has its own transport.

The Yakovlev 9D and the LaGG3. ;)
More P40 variants would be nice when the current model gets updated.

P-40 is already in the game, all you gotta do is update graphics and flight model a bit. Not too hard to do because you already got one to base it off of.

Hmmm, thinking out loud, wasn't the P-40 N Sky Captain's plane in the movie Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow? And also, I would like a bit of a sexier P-40 so...YES!
