Whaaaaat? :huh  You got an inside track the rest of us know nothing about?

are you referring to "I doubt HTC will add it any time soon" or "there were just a little over 2 thousand of them build"?

Anyone else get the idea that Meatloaf is a shade?

Yes, I would enjoy seeing the TU-2 enter service in Aces High.

I doubt HTC will add it any time soon because there were just a little over 2 thousand of them build

I always thought war time production of the TU-2 was a little over 1,000. Be that as it may we have a lot of air craft in the game whose numbers were less. The Jap KI-67 had around 700 produced. The ME-262, the 163, the coming Brewster Buffalo had about 500 built, the 3 cannon LA-7 didnt have a big presence.

Where'as the TU-2 did have a large impact in the war starting about early 1944. As the Soviet army approached Germanys eastern border, where German resistance stiffened, the TU-2 was called upon. It was the best Soviet bomber of the war and would be a great addition to the game.

It was not a fighter. It was a bomber, that could be used in ground attack.

Will pilots dogfight it? Sure, why not? They do with IL2s, B17s, already. Doesn't make 'em fighters, though.

Tu-2 first saw combat during the Stalin's Fourth strategic offensive against Finland during summer of '44, not early '44.

Would it be called a "Too-Two" by cartoon pilots in AH if it did make it into the game? "Too-Two, nine o'clock, low!"
