I thought you'd be asking for the P-38F.  :airplane:

Makes sense since it came along first =)

Ki-27a with 2x 7.7mm & as a variant, the Ki-27b with 1x 7.7mm + 12.7mm & bombs

Ki-43-Ic with 2x 12.7mm & as a variant, the Ki-43-IIa

As for the OP's original question: I don't see why not.  Just gotta get pyro & a skinner to agree (I heard 25yo single-malt scotch works wonders for these requests)



Check out a post I made in the Wishlist on the Zeros. You could conceivably have SIX different Ki-43 variants just with 2 models and gun packages.
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.

HTC needs to put out another Axis plane, the allies have plenty on the list as it is. 

Ki-43
Ki-44
Ki-100
J2M
More 190 & 109 variants

Ya know for the 6th post he has made since 2005, that is a pretty darn good post.  :aok

While we are working the wish lists, here are a few early war birds I’d like to see:

Fokker D.XXI
Reggiane Re.2002
Fiat G.50
Dewoitine D.520
Morane-Saulnier M.S. 406
Nakajima Ki-43
Nakajima Ki-27

Yes, EW birds are hangar queens.  Probably not worth the time to model when weighed against the amount of flight time these would get outside scenarios.


An interesting footnote is how many of the above were flown by the Finnish AF:

Fokker D.XXI
Fiat G.50
Morane-Saulnier M.S. 406

How did those guys get parts?


More in line with the OP, here are a few variants I’d like to see:

Ju-87G (?) with the big anti tank cannons
F2A (Brewster 139)
A-26
GameID: RufLeak
Claim Jumpers

Technically we already have the F2A, via a gun package option on the B-239. (3x.50cal + 1 .30cal). There's a VMF-221 skin coming out for it.

OK, so the P-38H looks like a P-38G and performs like a P-38J?

It needs to be added why?  Fly the G for looks or the J for its performance.?
