That was the last time it has been done.  Well, we do have additional two new A/C (P-39 and B-25)

And you can see the effect that the limited planeset had on it. They have the La7 and Bf 109G-10 in it  :huh

Kursk was one of the largest armored battles of the war, yet I see not one tank listed. :)

I'm not sure all those planes were flying during the Battle. I will have to do some research.

Food for FSO thought...  Hope somebody who designs those things is paying attention.

I think there was  Kursk battle in the planning because i asked questions in regard to the Tigers being favored heavily since T-34/76 didn't have a chance. I was told that the would let T-34/85's into the game . But I haven't heard anything since.

Tough to do without a lot of Panzer Mk IIIs.  No Tigers there, or even 75mm Panzer IVs.  The right T34 is in game however and no the T34/85 was not there

If i am reading the book right, these A/C and others that AH does not have where in the battle.  Here is the link i found on it too.  Not sure if it is accurate.
