They call it "common sense", then why is it so uncommon?

So many new planes have been added to Aces High.
 :salute to HTC developers.

Since there are no limits on what we can wish for...

PBY Catalina   Shouldn't this magnificent aircraft hold a role in Aces High?
G4M Betty    I know we have the Ki-67, but is not the Betty the quintessential Japanese bomber?.
Ju52           The C47 is a wonderful plane.  The Ju52 tri-motor is unique and special in it's way too.

Stalwart

I agree with all three and you at least gave personal commentary, instead of posting stuff from Wiki.    :rock

P-63C:

410mph at alt, 365 at sea level
1800 hp WEP (vs 1100-1300 for P39 and P63A) = great acceleration
60 rounds of 37mm ammo (about double what the P39 had)
3 hardpoints for up to 1500 lbs bombs/fuel
Rocket rails for up to 8 5" HVARs

Historically correct, though virtually all went Lend-Lease to the Soviets.

This would provide a nice jabo alternative to the P47, FW190A8 and P38; a decent swing-role fighter.

Give it nasty stall characteristics (like the C.205 or Corsair with flaps up) so somewhat mimic real-world low speed handling issues.

Ok, I know I've posted about this before but you can't blame a guy for trying

How about we stop adding muscle to the already buff American planeset for a while?

And you'll get the same answer that should have been given before:

There's absolutely no evidence that the P-63 EVER saw combat in WWII, only a handful of rumors without documentary evidence since that information all points to the Soviets using P-39s. Hearsay that some of these "P-39" sorties were actually falsified to cover for use of the P-63 is no basis whatsoever to justify addition of this aircraft.
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.
