I've got to admit, even the rather dweebish Late-War loving, Spit16 loving me, that Brewster does look fun  :D


For a follow-up, I think the A-26 should be the next plane to get added.
Afk for a year or so.  The name of a gun turret in game.  Falanx, huh? :banana:
Apparently I'm in the 20th FG 'Loco Busters', or so the legend goes.

We definatly need more Jap planes and imho they should be prio 1.

As for bombers yes the HE-111 should be the next bomber.

A good prio list would be.

1. 2-3 EW/MW Jap planes.
2. HE-111
3. EW/MW Russian.
4. Italian planes..

Treize (pronounced 'trays')- because 'Treisprezece' is too long and even harder to pronounce.

We're already getting terrain that looks just like that, so stop putting pictures of the terrain please. ;)

Anyone say that yet? :lol


A26 or Oscar would have been a better choice.

This plane will rot in the MA hanger IMO unless they over model it.

Have fun w it in FSO or snapshot.
Oscar?
You realize that the crowd that would fly the Oscar would be largely the same as, except for smaller than those that will fly the Buffalo?
Not to say the the Oscar doesn't sound sweet.

What other theater? You mean the war took place elsewhere other than Europe? That's news to me...

:D

I didn't mean the Oscar wouldn't be a good addition, I just found it odd that he was complaining about a hangar queen and suggesting the Ki 43.
The Ki 43 would be really cool IMO.

One of my favorite planes in Air Warrior to fly was the Oscar. From what I remember, it was a fairly popular plane. Not exactly as popular as some of the American birds but many kills were had with it and for some, their primary ride. The Oscar of AW had enough speed and maneuverability to compete with the rest of the AW's plane set....unlike the Brewster.

I love my FM-2. If it's anything like it...and I don't think it is, my personal opinion of it might be changed.

From what I gather the Brewster we're getting is an American made, stripped down low production Swedish version that somehow ended up under Nazi control.

A Finnish variant of the F2A, the VL (Valtion Lentokonetehdas) Humu was intended as a replacement for the Finnish Air Force's worn-out F2A-1 Buffalo fighters, which could not be replaced due to poor wartime availability of imported combat aircraft. The most significant changes from the original F2A-1 were a wooden wing (necessary due to material shortages) and a Russian M-63 engine purchased from Germany. The project soon fell behind schedule and the Humu proved to be inferior to the F2A-1 due to a higher aircraft weight, among other factors . Only one aircraft was delivered, and it never entered Finnish service.   [History by Jeff VanDerford with significant contributions by P. Kojo and Sampo Vuorinen.]

The Brewster is about as Finnish as baseball.
