AH needs a Stuka, Me110 and Beaufighter

S!

The Stuka may not be very survivable in the MA, but it is crucial to a huge number of historical scenarios which are on the horizon.

We have new maps of Stalingrad, Malta/Sicily and others either completed or soon to be completed.

Give us a Ju87D with the 37mm AT gunpod G model variant option.

The Me110 is also very much needed.  Of all the planes which are currently not represented, the Me110 is one which had one of the largest roles in the conflict.  An `E` or `G` model would be the best choice since it would fit with the existing planeset.  The `C` can be left for when the BoB planes come out.

The Beaufighter too had a big role in both the European and Pacific and would be a good balancer for the 110.  Please give us both the Attack and Nightfighter loadout options.


                   Thanks Buzzbait

The Beaufighter has always been a favorate of mine in fact I would rather of seen it than the mossie we have. As far as the me 110 goes i think the Me 410 would be a better adation for the MA, and i think their are better choices for a german ground atack plane like the Hs 126.

  But in general I feal Germany has got quiet a few toys at the moment, I would like to see the scales evened a bit before we get another german ride, how about a twin each for Italy, Japan and Russia first.

  Say a:

  A  Cant Z 1007 for Italy

  A Ki 102 for Japan

  A TU 2 for Russia

   These too would be good for scenarios espichaly the Cant Z 1007 it was avaliable throught the whole war for Italy, the other 2 would be good for late war scenarios, and all would be effective in the MA.

We sure could use a lot of stuff.  But according to prior posts the Tu-2 and KI-67 are on the drawing board so the Russian and Japanese planesets should be in for a boost in some near future release.  As far as the CANT Z.1007 it wouldn't be happy in the MA, it would probably just spend most of it's time parked in the hangar with 1 wing draped proctectively over the C.202.  Amongst other problems, it had a wimpy bombload. It wouldn't be much more effective than a TBM.  

Right now the MA is still the reality in AH.  Too bad, there are sooo many cool planes that just can't cut it in the MA.

Cant Z. 1007
   2 torpedos or
    4,410lb internal & 4 551ld on wing racks
     

    Whimpy?

  By far the best Italian medieum buff we could want biger load than a B 26, and hey lets not bring the P 108 into this :)

110 & Ju87  (2 versions) will come in 1.09 iam sure. My thinking is due to the fact that the hurricane & mossy were added so the natural thing to do would be to bring in 110 & JU87

Agreed.... other thansome Jap planes (Ki 84) I can think of few that the MA would benefit by........

Stuka and ME110 in their variants will fuel many scenarios IMHO..
