Since everyone is making out there Christmas lists late this year for Santa Pyro....

I won't ask for everthing, just a handful that I think we need first.

Non-perk

Perks

I think the P-51H, Corsair-4, the Yak-3, and the Ta152 would be the easiest to do, since they arlready have cockpit art done.

The M7 Priest would be a nice addition.

Hehe RAM, fair enough. The IIC was the one with 4x20mm, the IID was the anti-tank model (2x40mm).

I think the Hurricane MkIV would be a useful all-purpose aircraft (Dedicated ground attack plane with universal wing, could carry 12x.303, or 4x20mm, or 2x40mm also [A Tempest V was once fitted with 2x40mm IIRC!) Don't have much info on this one though.

190 cockpit art is crap, it needs to be redone when they add the D-9 or Ta 152.

Along with most of the earlier planes too.

Cocpit arts are fine! I usually look out of the cocpit and sometimes the dials but very rarely ony the cocpit art...

I do hope that full potential of existing models are used. For example:

With new nose, vertical tail and engine nacelles:

- Ju 88C-6 - Heavy day fighter ie. zerstörer
- Ju 88G-1 - Nightfighter. 357 mph + 4 x MG 151/20!

(Ju 188 would be ultimate but with bit more work...)

Only new paintjob and removed outer MG 151's:

- Fw 190F-8 - THE late war Jabo of Lufwaffe.

New paint and nose job plus bit longer rear:

- Fw 190D-9 - Practically last of the line of Fw fighters.

- P-51 Mk I - Mid war RAF Mudstain.

- Spit Mk V LF Clipped wing - Wicked low altitude dogfighter, used even in 1945!

Anyway, I'm very happy whatever HTC gives us, Lufwaffe plane would of course be real treat for me!

Me-410 would be nice

Welp, Me 410 would be fun too! Speed in 400 mph range (385 - 410 from different sources) so it could escape from enemy fighters if detected in time, huge firepower 2 X (up to 6 X all internal!!!) 20 mm MG 151, 2 X 13 mm MG 131 forward and 2 X 13 mm MG 131 rear and bombload of 2 X 250 kg or 1 X 500 kg or 1 X 1000 kg... Very good allaround visibility too! Bk 5 50 mm automatic cannon could drop heavy bombers like flies...

Since AH is mid/late war oriented right now Me 410 should be the first zerstörer. I think Pyro or HiTech liked me 410 too so lets keep hoping
