Junkers Ju87 "Stuka"

[Guinness]

We need a Dive Bombing class in AH.

Ju87 would be my first choice, it wont need perking, and it leaves room for better performing dive bombers to be added later.  Theres no point in putting in a very good dive bomber first, as noone would use any poor dive bombers put in the game after that, if you understand?

Ju87 was an extensivly used aircraft during WW2 if im wrong tell me, but all the footage i see on TV etc always has them.  Hell i even saw a program devoted to the Stuka.  Seeing as a lot of people love Jabo missions, and LW planes etc i cant see why this isnt here yet.

Itll be a slow plane, i doubt much turning abilty fully loaded, so its not a Threat to the AH community.  Its just another il isnt it?  Itll be fixed wheel too, good fun landing one without a wheel heheh.  I cant think of any bad points about this, other than its non-effectiveness in the Main Arena, but if it was here, im pretty sure it would get used a lot on some field attacks.

Would love to hear anyones input on this plane.  Or post a link to a previous thread please, no search button

IMHO I think HTC will eventually bring the Stuka to Aces High. Even if its out classed by half the fighters in the game, the popularity of the Stuka demands it. I think the Stuka would bring many more players into the game, which is what we all want. I'm sure HTC has thought of this. Think of how cool it would be to see a jabo mission of all Stukas taking out an airbase.

I can already hear the dive horn roaring as the Stuka's come raining down...AirWolves style.      Oh, don't worry...our eggs rarely hit anything vital.  lol.  We just want the enemy to come out and play.

Stuka is likely one of the most famous WW2 aircraft of ww2.  I am sure it will arrive.  The dive bomber class will also appear soon.  The PAC planeset is missing alot of such aircraft which will be coming down the pipeline soon I am sure.(1.09 i hope+)
