My all time wish is to have the JU87 G for tank busting  :pray

1. Its a wish list.
2. The  'N' meets the critera
3. When the p40 is eventually updated it shouldn't be that difficult to have another variant.
4. Its low on the list for anything obivously.

Well it must have been a 2 seated plane because Polly perkins was in the back seat.It is after all a plane with grappling hooks that can go underwater.

I think it was a P-40K, but I could be wrong.

Obviously, Sky Captain's plane is a P-40D, with the D standing for Dex, as Dex modified it from it's base model to include grappling hooks, a telegraph, magnetic explosive compartment, as well as wings that can sustain a much tighter turn radius than what would normally be possible without dropping flaps. And let's not forget the super engine that get's him up to flying speed without any evidence of torque. Seriously, if we get the plane from the movie, we might as well give the B-24s some jet engines and say "Nuts" to realism.
