I think that's a felony in most states...

Oh, wait, you said necro-MANCER. N/M! :devil

Required topical post substance: Attractive plane IMO. Maybe not an astounding performer, but could probably hold its own as a furballer. And no one can say the Romanian plane set has too many models already.

Concerning the IAR-80, you know we just gotta add this plane because it is like a work of art.  Not to mention it saw a fair amount of real war usage.

I had no interest in this airplane until I started reading up a bit on it. I cant say Im completly enthused but its an interesting idea.

It might make an interesting niche fighter and would look awsome in its original skin.

4 × FN (Browning) 7.92 mm with 500 rounds each mounted in the inner portion of the wing

Be great for all those 1v1 with Spit1's.

Well, the 81C would be the clear choice with 2 20's... But no Hispano's darn it....... :confused:

Of course not Hispano's, its an Axis fighter. MG 151/20 is just as good IMO. The versions with 2x 20mm and 4x .303s would basically be like a radial-engined Spit V with much more cannon ammo and probably a better dive rate.
