I agree that the French should have a fighter, but since they have none at the moment, why not start with the more common ones first?

Of the 775 D.520s built during the war,  this number is significantly higher than some other things already in game.

The D.520 would be the pick of the French bunch.

I'm not sure if the game is set up for these kind of aircraft.  As it stands right now no other aircraft in the game has the ability to fly in reverse so it might be a challenge to model.

Ya know, I dont feel sorry for the French any more than anyone else... but those "jokes" are not even remotely amusing anymore.  Once you learn that it wasnt the French military that lost vs the Germans but rather an indecisive French government you'll understand why those of us who know history roll our eyes   :rolleyes:  when these types of jokes are made.  Dont get me wrong, I am not saying the French would have stopped the Germans, but they would not have been rolled over like they were if only the French government would have unleashed the military to do what it was capable of doing.

btw... the D.520 would be a great addition to AH2.   :aok    I've been saying that for ahile now.  It was more than a match vs the early 109's.   :)

I think French cowardice jokes is a slap in the face to the brave French resistance fighters who were willing to sacrifice their lives at such long odds.

+1 on the plane. Being French I'd make sure to fly it  :D

It's surprising to see yet another wish for a French vehicle ending up in retreat-jokes and people commenting on those...

But +1 on the wish  :aok

+1 for the D.520.
It was also important in Morocco.

The Germans and Italians used them until they were worn out.  I think I've got some Itai skins on them in Courage Alone.

The French should be as happy with a Yak3 as the Finns will be with the Brewster IMO.
