I plane I have wished to be added for a long time along with the I.A.R 80.  Even though I probably won't fly one in the MA's unless by some miracle there was a twin engine version, it is one plane that I would love to fight against.  The Romanians gave P-38 drivers bloody noses from time to time and I want some pay back b*tches!

I'd fly this exclusively and would enjoy dueling for historical purposes, as well as each of us "figuring out" how to best ourselves.

BTW, did you get my PM?

AH,

As you know most posts get a mix of positive and negative feedback.  This is a rare post indeed where most everyone that has replied has been favorable to the idea of adding the IAR-80.

Perhaps if\when you do add it consider adding one of the later variants.

AH, thanks for considering the post and the overwhelming support for this plane.

The IAR-80 and the D520 are two very worthy fighters that deserve a spot in AH2, the problem is finding someone who has the ability to add them into the game agree with us.  :pray 

I'm afraid either do not have enough "flash-bang" to be added.

how much combat did they see in wwII? no offense but you don't hear whole lot, if anything about the romanian airforce... :confused:

The Romanians saw combat all over the Eastern Front and also in the Western Front and had at least 3 aces with 60+ kills.

Hehe.  You must have gotten your knowledge (or lack of it) from watching the History Channel.  ;)  Open a book and read.  You'll be amazed at the stuff out there to be learned.   :)  Romania, Hungaria, Greece, Poland, Norway, Finland, China, Brazil, and a whole host of others played a much bigger part than what most people think.   ;)  Heck, just reading up on the British Commonwealth and learning what they all contributed is a lengthy read in itself.   :)
