I would LOVE to see a B25H on AH. I would really love to see an Il-2 first.

 I am a reasonable man but the thought of another US plane being added to the current plane set (at this time) has me feeling a sense of understanding for the US Postal worker that I ...well never quiet appreciated...I could go ...POSTAL...

It will come eventually. But I hope it's a strafer nose C model in 345thBG/501st colors.

I have a particular paint scheme in mind.  

....craggamore...Cragganmore. ..CRAGGANMORE!

...they couldn't hit much with the 75mm anyway.

Like this Rip?


 


The 345th in action. Those little white puffs in a string are the parafrags going down over the Ki-61's all parked in a nice row.

Here's a close up:


 

Of course, they'd be fun against a TG if you could mount a large raid:

Id ask for the B25 (with heavy nose armament) and the ju88 nose cannon variant.

That way both sides have "one" of them. dunno if the Japanese or Italians had a similar plane

ah...think of it...

An entire wing, maybe 40 planes (some hangar queens you know), down low, not showing on newly modified AH radar/sector bars.

3 squadrons of strafer nose C's loaded with parafrags and one of G's & H's (75mm) also loaded with parafrags.

A gentle dive just before the target, speed clocking up over 280 indicated.

4 successive waves flashing over the target, each following wave arriving just as the last parafrags from the preceding wave finish exploding.

Then out and rtb, hunting the coastlines and shipping lanes as you do.

Yep. Wood.
