P-47d11 in EARLY WAR

[Seadog36]

Should be perked in EW! Was in Europe late 1942, saw combat over France March 10th '43 and by mid '43 in Italy and the Pacific with the 12th and 348th respectively. The Jug is a contemporary of the Spit IX which first saw action in late '42, and is also perked in EW. Current Skins for the D11 represent C1 through D23 models anyway. Should be easy to do. Can perk D-25s in MW to represent D15s-23s which had pylons for ords and DTanks:salute

Spit IX first saw combat in Mid-1942.  P-47D-11 didn't arrive until 1943.

beat me to it.  the p=47D was in production in 42 and ready to go, but not put into service till 43

Ok what about the D25? can it be in mid?
 or could we change the dates for early/ mid war?
 mid has some population, but early is a ghost town as far as I can tell!
not Dissing on the people in Early war tho, everyone flies somewhere for a reason, and I sure don't want to tell anyone else how to spend there $15!!!

P-47D-25 is from 1944 and the cutoff point for Mid-War and Late-War seems to be Dec. 31, 1943.  If the time were changed to get the P-47D-25 in, you would also be getting things like the Spitfire Mk XIV and perhaps Spitfire Mk XVI as well.

Mid-1942 is early war?

Mid-1942 is early war?

For the United States, yes.

Spit XVI, that will be a vary high perk AC in mid war.

It shouldn't be in Mid-War at any price, that is my point.  Moving the goal posts to get the P-47D-25 would have other consequences.  People need to just settle for no P-47 in Early-War and just the P-47D-11 in Mid-War.  Just the way it is.

I really do not mid how it is set up.  The only question i did asked a while back is how dose HT determent the time line from ER to LW, before U.S in the war or after.

Well, the Spitfire Mk IX is in there and that entered service in June of 1942, so it is clearly after the US entry.  The Fw190A-5 is in there too, which is a 1943 fighter, but I think it is subbing for earlier Fw190s.

Well if you can sub one plane for another????

[Seadog36]

That is my point exactly~ The F6F for example is a -5 model which didn't appear until June 44 and it is unperked w HVAR rockets.

What would you be subbing it for though?  The P-47 doesn't belong in Early War.
