Could we use a bomber version with formation in AH2?

Drawbacks to the Mossie's handling have to do more with pilot error than machine limitations.  It handles just fine provided you know how to burn her fuel, and ride her through the rodeo.  

EDIT:hopefully it will perform better turning,speed,etc.

This is a dream come true BTW!!!    

THANK YOU HTC, THANK YOU!



6 pounder wouldn't be a bad thing either!

Problem with the 57mm Mollins gun Mk XVIII as a different  is that it also included over 800lbs of additional armor around the cockpit and engines.  I don't believe AH is set up to modify armor models based on choices made in the hangar.  The other issue is the fact that only 27 of them were made.

NO

The bomber versions had bombsights.

How many WW were made again?
Less than 100 as I recall.  Not as strong on German armor as on Mossies.  :p

Ohh and taking a load out option already changes weight. Try a 6 gun p47 vs 8 gun.

So Karnak, what you're saying is.........  We need a 2nd version?  And as such, your armor issue becomes moot, not m00t...........

The weight issue is one thing, but the Gentleman speaks about the armor and metal reinforcement.

Since the guns are added could't the armor be added also?

Only from an overall weight side........   But as for damage modifiers, it would take some coding.
