You fly, i'll shot you down?

The poor thing would be blasted out of the sky. you'd fly up to 10k max or else the engine might fail and then i'd drop with an F4U-1 and tear apart your tin can wings.

Sounds great! NO, we really dont need a soda can with little tin wings going 60mph max and only 10k high.

I'll shoot you down in a Spit 1.   "I'll take When Egos Flare" for $1000 Alex."

You also need to read more Cherry Picker.   Service Ceiling was around 33,000ft, so I have no idea why you're hung up on 10k.  332mph for an aircraft developed in 1938 is "slow"?    It also was one of the best armed fighter at the start of WWII.   

In short, you should read more and post less drivel.

Lots of guys in here with nothing but "hear-say" when it comes to French tools of war.

France was quite capable at the onset of WWII, it wasnt the military or the equipment it had that was FUBAR'd, it was a very indecisive government that hog tied the French military.

Germany is quite lucky that France didnt fully initiate "Opertion Saar" while it was in Poland.

Oh... and again, the D520 fighter, S35 tank, and maybe even the Char-b1 tank would be swell additions to the game.  The French also had a decent dive bomber/attack airplane and I dont remember what it was atm.

Not France, Russia, England or USA (provided they were not separated by the sea) were prepared for the kind of war Germany waged at the begining.

 LOL I doubt that anyone would see you flying any of these French planes. You want them so you can get another easy kill. There are plenty of EW choices other than French planes.

The simple fact is, the planes the French used were instrumental in the defense of their country during the Battle of France and also in the Low Countries.  You cannot have an EW plane set without including these planes. 

This has nothing to do with easy kills, if I wanted that I would just hunt you down all day in the MW.

I`ll fly the D.520 And be the first to blast you from the sky with it
(Image removed from quote.)


Does your ego have a max limit to it . Big deal if you can blast anyone from a cartoon sky. I have only been playing AH for maybe 2 years, how about you? My guess is many more than that. I also never played AW either or any other virtual flying game, so blowing me outta the sky doesn't prove anything to me. Oh by the way if they do put french tanks in here then I can blow you away while in it, cause I know you rather suck in GV's. After all....... The discussion was about French tanks not how many peoples arses you can blow outta the sky in a French plane.

ack-ack, For once I think I honestly agree with you.

I love flying in the EW arena but there simply are NOT enough choices for planes or GV's in there to make it worth my time so more and more, I go to the MW arena where there more choices but still not enough.

There really is a NEED for Early and Mid war rides. Of course anytime someone brings anything up that involves EW or MW someone from the LW arena shoots it to hell saying "Its going to be a hanger queen" because they never have bothered to go into the other arenas and fly anything besides P-51D's or Spit 16's or P-47's. Alot of the GOOD ideas get shot down and pushed out of the way for more "B-29" threads or similar LATE WAR requests.


Countries needed to flesh out EW Plane/GV sets would include: (But are not limited to)
Russian
French
Dutch
Italian (They had more than the 202 and 205)
Polish
British (Tanks mostly, and a few planes)


Come on HTC, You've given us enough late war rides (Unless you wanna give us the HE-111), give us EW guys a break will ya?

Let me be more specific about your comment, you said it saw service with the US in the ETO . That is not true. It did see service in the ETO with the Russians but not with the Americans. I believe it first saw US service in the New Guinea region. I also doubt that after the first week or two you wouldn't see many French planes or tanks for that matter being used even in EW. Why do you want French planes anyway your head is too big to fit under the tiny French canopies.

For EW maybe the British matilida as a new Brit tank but anything else (imo) would be a waste of time. The Char B would be a nice gv addition .There are many planes that could be added like the Ki-43 Oscar which for some reason has been left outta the plane line up. The poll's had a kinda cool dive bomber. Another cool addition would be the P-36.
