Krusty, I posted a complete list earlier in the thread.  You left out the M16, obviously related to the M3, and the LVTs.

LVTs are redone, last I recall aiming their guns they have the Sherman-style gun mounts. [EDIT: on second thought I don't know now, I'd have to go check but I thought they were redone]

M16 is my bad.

I didn't really intend to repeat your list as much as compare the totals to the "already dones" and then break down the families. My bad if it seemed redundant.

Where to begin?

Prove it. There were MANY G-6s.. It's a generic name for dozens of different models. We have an early G-6 modeled, with 20mm hub gun and squared canopy, and short tail.

Already updated. We don't need clipped wings on it. That would make the squirrely flight model even more spastic, and reduce it's high-alt capabilities (since we have the high-alt engine modeled).

Look up 190A8. Then look up Schrage Musik. You're confusing one or the other.

That's the last thing our Ju88 needs

You're wrong on that. The armor on an IL2 only surrounds the immediate cockpit and parts of the engine/weapons. It had a wooden tail, and much less stick stirring capabilities in real life than it does in AH. The reason they couldn't kill it is because 109F2s had 15mm cannons. F4s had 1x 20mm cannons. One of the biggest reasons for the development of 30mm hub guns was to kill IL2s faster. Yet, kill them they did. It was just harder to do.

Fly a K-4, it's faster and climbs better. Or fly a G-14. Has all the same options, same speed up to 16k.

My guess is will be whatever HTC feels needs it. Doesn't matter to me. I love updates, I love the eye candy, new planes, ww1, anything new we get. But no matter what they do, there will be a group that loves it, a group that doesn't care and a very vocal group that don't like it.

I'd like some of what you're smoking! :aok

Fly Yaks much?

I can see now.  Have you seen what happened when they updated the F4U, F6F, La7, N1K2?  When they introduced new a/c altogether?

You have a much more limited amount of head movement.  I still think I should be able to move around a P-39 cockpit more.  You have new, "pretty" canopy frames in the way.

Leave my Yaks alone.
