why is everyone drooling over this firefly, doesnt look that fantastic... And that backseat, what use would we have with a spotter? Throw some duel .303s back there or something. It just kind looks like an over sized spit or hurricane, making it undoubtly a crummier version of the seafire, but hey correct me if im wrong, im just not entirely convinced, the vids are cool though.

A great attack plane."

4 × 20 mm Hispano-Suiza HS.404 cannons
2 × 1,000 lb (450 kg) bomb or 8 × 60 lb (27 kg) rockets

;)

Seems like one helluva CV plane to me.

Would love to see a whole stable of AC from Fairy, but for starters, aye, bring on the Firefly!

I'm also suggesting the Fairey Fulmar, great EW/MW Plane!!! :D

whats alot, im assuming more than the tiffy, but i will say those 4 20mm are some killin machines, i also still wish there was some good use for that observer seat, seems like a waste of space for this game

well do you have anything better than a IL2 version that takes off from a cv with  a load out of 2x1000lbs bombs and 8×60lb rockets and 4 × 20 mm Hispano-Suiza HS.404 cannons and that goes 316 mph, and Also would be another flap hog? and is a decent fighter also?
