The most out-dated model in the game is obviously the A6M2 and 5. I would love for these to be updated but my bias toward this is absurd.

I want to see those sources that no one else has come forward with in the past 60 years to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that the Do-335 did in fact have 4 confirmed kills of someone other than test pilots.

Read Squadron Publication DO-335

Aside from the massive remodeling to a LOT of the planes (particularly our bombers)....


He-111 H-11

If this was the next plane to be added, I'd dedicate an entire tour to solely flying it.  :salute Which also means that most of the deaths in it will likely be from me.  :x  :rofl

+1 Show me their source material on the matter and I will be more inclined to agree with you there Digr1. Besides that I wish the plane was in the game but it ain't likely to happen!

OH BTW I want to add to the wish list I have.

Is there another WW2 fighter or attack bird that flew front line combat from 40-45 in the ETO, MTO, CBI and PTO that isn't in AH besides the Beau?


:headscratch: No & that is why we should have at least 3-5 different models when we do get it for all era's. :aok

it did have 4 kills at the end of the War so it must of seen some action

There are no records of any kills by a Do-335.  The only official Allied account of the encounter was at the hands of a French ace flying Typhoons when he and his flight encountered one at low altitude.  The Typhoons then dove to intercept the Do-335 only to have the Dornier turn and rapidly accelerate away, the Typhoons never got within gun range.

Besides, the Do-335 never saw operational service nor did it enter into production.  Only around 13-15 preproduction models were built before the Allies overran the Dornier factory.

If there are any Soviet records of any encounters they've had with the Do-335 then they must be still keeping them as state secrets because there aren't any official reports of Soviet pilots ever encountering a Pfeil in combat.
