He111 is a slow piece of junk that would get ripped to shreds in the MA. The only possible use for it would be scenarios, which is a very small return for the effort invested in developing the artwork and flight model.

I suggest you look at the roster for scenarios.

There is very little left to be added that saw significant WWII service that doesn't fit this description.

As such that description is rather useless as an objection to a new aircraft being added.

By that argument we should see the Ju87 C47 A20s P40s and half the Jugs removed from the game.
If you like the Sick Puppy Custom Sound Pack the please consider contributing for future updates by sending a months dues to Hitech Creations for account "Chalenge." Every little bit helps.

True, but some people are able to use those planes to good effect in the MA.

I don't agree that the aircraft left to be modeled would only be useful for scenarios.

German:
Do 217 (anti-ship missiles?)
He 177
109G-10
190A-6 (like an A-5 but with better armament)
Ju 87G (Heck yeah I would use this to bust tanks)

British:
Spitfire XII
Mosquito XVI

Russian:
Pe-2
Yak-3
Tu-2
Pe-8 (4 engine bomber with 20mm defensive armament)

Japanese:
Ki-100
J2M5

Italian
P.108

German:
Do 217 (anti-ship missiles?) One of the few.
He 177 Absolute disaster as a warplane, had no effect on the war.  Falls under my description.
109G-10 Inferior to the Bf109K-4 and introduced after the Bf109K-4.
190A-6 (like an A-5 but with better armament) Saying it is like the Fw190A-5 isn't really putting it out of my criteria.  How many A-5s you see in the MA?
Ju 87G (Heck yeah I would use this to bust tanks) Would see low usage compared to the Il-2.  The 6 round clips would stop people.

British:
Spitfire XII ~100 built, falls under my description
Mosquito XVI Another one of the few, you are up to two.

Russian:
Pe-2 Here is a third
Yak-3 Inferior performance to the Yak-9U, small clip would make it a specialty fighter.
Tu-2 This would work.
Pe-8 (4 engine bomber with 20mm defensive armament) Very few built, falls under my description.

Japanese:
Ki-100 Think of this as a Ki-61,except slower....
J2M5 American test pilots liked it a lot, Japanese pilots not so much.  Maybe viable, maybe not.

Italian
P.108 I cannot begin to comprehend how you think this thing doesn't fall under the description I gave.

Okay, does a glass-nosed Mossie fall under your description?
And this:
"Yak-3 Inferior performance to the Yak-9U, small clip would make it a specialty fighter."
WOOT???????? Inferior performance? I always thought it was the UBER one.
And then, how about a P63?
Or an A-26?
Or the Meteor?
Ju 188?
Pe-2?
Il-10?
Short Stirling (low ceiling but humongus bomb-bay, some 60 bombs possible?)
I see tons of possibilities for HTC ;)
It was very interesting to carry out the flight trials at Rechlin with the Spitfire and the Hurricane. Both types are very simple to fly compared to our aircraft, and childishly easy to take-off and land. (Werner Mölders)
