easy to make Night Fighters
« on: March 12, 2001, 11:44:00 AM »
most night fighters in the game would be easy to make without to much work...

F4U-5NP (the only navy ace in the Korean war flew this bird)
F6F-?N  
JU88-??
Fw190-(Wilde Sau)

just a simple modification to the FM and the 3D model istself, and some new skins and we would have 4 new night fighters..

If AH releases 8 new fighters every new version...they would already have 4 right thier

what do you guys think?

There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

Night fighters would be easy to put in I think


Make icons at night appear at d2.0 only.
Make night fighters have dot dar that works only in 5 mile radius.

This way you can have a night fighter lead non-night fighters to targets or hunt in packs. It would be like a storm cloud fight over your field when you have a friendly above the clouds directing the rest  

Current planes that can become night fighter mods:

Ju-88 night fighter
P-38M
(wasnt there a dar equipped F4U in the PTO?)
add any I missed here

The Hellcat and the 190 could also be modified...

The Hellcat Night version and the Corsiar night fighter would need a radar pod inserted into one wing

and the wilde sau 190 would need a some antennae on the wing and above the cowl mounted MGs..

just call it an Fw190/A6
