Interesting.  How much ammo, and with the rate of fire, would it be comparable in seconds to the Hurri 2C, C Hog, or the Nik1?  :uhoh

Considering it's an American aircraft, it would have Hizookas, the armament would be equivalent to the Hurricane IIC/F4U-1C/Typhoon.
We're not talking about MG151/20's or crappy Japanese cannons here, those are going to be laser-accurate super guns.

hehe Chalenge you say we need more but you'd never fly them anyway, too stuck on your 51D.

We don't need anymore cannon birds.

This is false.  If no more "cannon birds" are allowed to be added it very much limits what can be added as most nations used cannons on their fighters.  We get some early and mid war Japanese fighters and some early war Russian fighters and that is about it.

Appearance of a P51, performance of a P40, and the firepower of the HurriIIC. I think we need other aircraft that saw more action and will fill a bigger gap in the planeset.

Not really. It looks just like P51 just with a different canopy. It has the same engine as the P40 but it was about 30mph faster then it, and the same guns as the HurriIIC. And there are many, many, other planes that can fill a bigger gap then the P51A.

I for one would welcome the P51A.  More skilless pilots in a 51 who can't fight.  They will just Ho and run.  Ok changed my mind I don't want it

This is not about the P51A its about the P51 or Mustang IA a furballing pony. Fear the P51!  :D

In that case lets get rid of the Spitfire's, N1K2's, 190's, ... Screw it, just get rid of the humans flying the planes because ANY PLANE CAN AND WILL DO THAT.

P-51's are fast.
Spitfire's turn.
A6M's burn.

...People HO and run.
I'm Sector95 in-game! :-D

The Mustang IA was called Mustang by the RAF. It would have been confusing anyway if Americans called them Apaches and the British referred to them as Mustangs.


RNAF had Martlets but that didn't stop a certain ex colony calling them Wildcats......

RAF had Bostons but again all the ex colony could think of was "A20".......

RAF had Liberators the 8th & 9th had B24's (even if the US  later adopted the name "Liberator")

Your night operations called them Havocs and I am not sure our Wildcats served in Europe so its fairly consistent.

Yes, they did. Our colonial oppressors seemed to have a certain affection for our planes.
