My thoughs... hmm
well, I would say just the Ki-43-IIb, What is a Ki-34 I have never heard of it? we need the Ki-44 IIb and IIc, We need the Ki-45 Kai-B, Ki 100, Ki-21 IIb, and thats what I think the Japanese plane set should get for now, as for the Italians, well lets see...
Re-2001, P.108, S.M.79, C.200, and G.50

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nakajima_Ki-34 Ki-34: Basically the C-47 only a wee bit faster. I don't think we need another transport, though... Unless it becomes possible for us to get the C-47's from the Korean conflict!!!  :x :x :x No, not really.

KI-43 has even weaker guns than the F2B which is dissapointing, but it can hold its own and hold a decent amount of ords... I'd like to see it added, it would fill out the Japanese planeset more.

IAR 80- Yes. A decent plane that isn't American (Karnak has rubbed off on me) :devil

RE .2005 Yes, very nice Italian aircraft and from what I've researched it has higher performance than the C .205.
NICE Loadout, too. 3x 20mm guns with a total of 550 rounds and two upper cowling 12.7mm guns with 350 rpg.

uh, wldcat, you know the armament of the Ki-43 was 2 7.62mm MG's, which would put it at par with the F2B for total armament and surpass it for forward armament, right?

Ki-21 is definatly one of the less important additions, IMO. Would love to see the Re 2001, S.M 79, and the ki-44.



And can we please leave the ducky out of this? It wouldn't be too bad of a bet that HTC ignores those.

In a strange sort of way we already have a Japanese transport plane in game.  Just as it appears the Ki-34 was a license build Douglas DC-2, the Japanese also acquired the manufacturing rights to the DC-3/C-47 prior to the outbreak of war and served with the Imperial Japanese Navy.

"The types ko, otsu, and hei, the Ki 43-IA (2x7.7mm), Ki 43-IB (1x7.7mm and 1x12.7mm), and Ki 43-IC (2x12.7mm)." KI-43
THE ORIGINAL ARMAMENT
Both primary source documents and the general literature agree that the prototype and pre-production Ki 43-1's featured two armament combinations namely two 7.7mm machine guns or two 12.7mm "machine cannon " (in Japanese army parlance). The number 10 and 13 pre-production aircraft (serial numbers 4310 and 4313) carried two 12.7mm guns. The other prototype and pre-production aircraft carried two 7.7 mm guns [4].


Congratulations, you called me on a typo, F2A. Wanna cookie?
2 × 0.50 in (12.7 mm) nose-mounted M2 machine guns
2 × 0.50 in (12.7 mm) wing-mounted M2 machine guns
2 × 100 lb (45 kg) underwing bombs

Congrats, I think you wanted me to feel like an idiot being called out by a 12 year old. Cool, want a cookie?
