Humor is all fine and good but you are contributing to the likelyhood we never get the plane.  Thanks haha  :rolleyes:

So.  It wouldn't hurt me one bit to not ever have the B-29 in AH.  I would much rather have bombers from other nations ranging from EW-LW.

Its about time we had a B-29 thread, I am surprised it has been brought up so few times. ;)

I beleive HTC stated that the B-29 would take a lot of resources to make in game, and there was never any prejudice against including it at some point.

It would be, almost as a certainty, the standard B-29A, which was *not* capable of a nuclear loadout. Those being the B-29 "specials" (Silverplate) specifically modified to carry the Manhatten Project devices.

I wouldn't mind it in game at all, for SEA stuff, but I would like the Ki-45 "Dragon Slayer" as well with the 1945 armament options.

That is an acceptable point of view in my opinion.  Flawed, but acceptable.

Well stated Squire.  Perhaps there is hope, console gamer noobs be damned.

Agreed.
With the lazers the 17's fire now can you imagine how the 29's fire control system would be modeled?  :O

S!

 Nice screenshot from Il-2 with mods on, which has the B29 "Silverplate" (noseart for both Bock's Car and Enola Gay) modelled with both Fat Boy and Little Boy, so not a photshopped pic ;)

  That plane has had a few Bugs in it.

Why not introduce the B29 for a single large map and see how it goes?  Ok w/o n00k.
