I would throw in the PZL P.11 used by Poland and Romania and the export version the PZL P.24 used by Greece, Romania, and Bulgaria.

While both are technically a gull wing monoplane I think they would fit in with the biplanes you have listed.

I wasn't sure if the PZL P.11 or PZL P.24 would be useful on AH.  But then, i like to see diversity on AH.

Well it would be in Special Events.

You have the invasion of Poland, Italian Greek War (CR.42s and vs PZL P.24), and then maybe some Eastern Front early stuff. I know Bulgaria never went to war versus Russia but not sure if the Romanian PZL P.24s were involved in the invasion of Russia or not.

Very early war stuff, as said, the British used a lot of Gladiators (Norway, Crete, Greece, Ethiopia, Iraq, etc.), Italians had CR.42s (Greece, North Africa, Ethiopia), PZL P.11/ PZL P.24 (Poland and Greece), I-15/I-153 (Russia). I think that rounds out the early war biplane and transitional fighters (high wing monoplanes) that were in use for 1939 - 1941.

Romania was part of Operation Barbarossa but they and Slovakia had their own declaration of war on Russia.  This is what they had at the time of the invasion

I want to say your probably wrong, im willing to bet they actually have more stuff coming out(i think would mainly be remodels of the older aircraft) but have had to hold off while they figure out the kinks in the new terrain which they are doing a great job, 60 frames all times on an average computer  :rock wtg HTC
