What is most likely gunna be the newest edition to AH?  I Wish it was the JS-2.

Since the OP didnt specify AIR or GROUND units... I would like to offer up a couple of GV options:

- A number of the M3 Variants fitted out as motorized gun, mortar, or howitzer carriages. (T12/M3 75 mm GMC, T30 75 mm HMC, T19/M21 81 mm MMC  and others). While it is true that they dont have any real measurable defensive armor, they provide a heavy firepower to the battlefield in a hurry, and would also be capable of supporting the main armored units.

- The M3 Lee/Grant Medium Tank Series.  Yeah, its ugly. Its got an awkward gun configuration.  Yes, its slow... but it WOULD be a great addition to the EW tank set.  Not to mention, it gives you the 37mm gun and the 75mm gun in the same platform. 

Neither of these series of GV's would stand up to the Tigers and other LW killers toe to toe... but it would provide more variety across the board.

And for the LW folks... the M18 Hellcat would be a nice option.  60 mph, 76mm gun... it would also be a great add.

Now I know these are all US vehicles.  There are several other GV's, from other nations that could just as easily fit into these roles as well.  My point is... I think we have enough aircraft for the moment.  Let's get more variety in the ground war.

Yeah. We're only missing two of the most important Japanese aircraft of the war, anyway. What do we really need THEM for?

Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

Never said we dont NEED them... just would be nice to get some GV's first.

I-153: You can't run a proper Eastern front event from '41 through '43 without it.

After that, the CR.42:

P-39, B-25C? Filled holes in the planeset for events, hangar queens in the MAs. He111 and Do17 would be the same.

Far more 39 flyers out there then you give them credit for.  And I love the 25C when the FH's are down.  all those 50s in the nose and no bomb load make it fun to try and fight in.

But yes they did fill holes for events too.
