Early war aircraft are a given. We'll see most all of them in due time, but currently we're stuck with a lateish war plane set. You won't see any Polish PZL P.7 or P.11c aircraft, since everything older than a 109B can kill it. Again, it's about balance. The MA could get Me-262s, Meteors, Ta-152s, Tempest Vs, Spit XIVs, P-51Hs; every aircraft made in 1945. You know what? Aside from historical nuts like us, not a peepe would be raised. The MA isn't a historical match arena [I shot down an Fw-190A5 in a Bf-109 G6 yesterday] it's simply a free for all. 3 on 3 with no holds bared.
If we ever got a Historical Arena, I'd be standing right here screaming for an RPS. Only aircraft from one country, per country [Rooks are Allied, Bishs are German, Knights are Russian]. Yes I classify Russians as another side. Until something along these lines happens, we're stuck. You'll see A6M2s trying to down P-47Ds, maybe even JS-II tanks rolling over a Panzer III. Who knows.
So for right now HTC is filling the plane/vehicle set. The Navy shows up in 1.05 along with a host of new targets and challenges. We'll see ships and carrier-based aircraft first, then most likely one new aircraft, vehicle, ship, ground target, and whatever else per version. Or HTC might put in vehicles, ships, and ground targets in one version, and three or four aircraft in the next.
It's all up in the air.
