remodle p40 cockpit maybe..........

[mariah11]

I've notcied when flyin my p40e that the flaps have finally been remodled so now first notch is below 400mph now I wonder if you could remodle the cockpit for me???????? and the others that fly it as well

I do not recall seeing anything in the change logs about the P40x's receiving any coding mods. 

But yes indeed... I will jump on the "please re-model the p40!!!" bandwagon.

Yup, I want to be thinking "wow, this looks really great" as I'm tumbeling from the sky  .


I'll climb onboard for this.

#Yeh the P40 cockpit has been left behind abit so i say please remodell it 2 even if we have to wait 6 months

I'm very disappointed with the P40 model in this game, its definitely my favorite WWII plane too...

What's to disappoint?  P40E is a really nice plane.

I personally think it retains way too much E, like the zeros, hurricanes, and other "first geneation models" -- it's a little too easy to fly in certain circumstances. Other than that and the damage model, it's pretty nice (albeit limited in a late war environment). One of my favorites.

Lol Krusty, not supprising it will gain several thousand feet if you take 8400lbs of fighter and point it upward with an initial velocity of 300 mph. And it seems no worse than the spitfires, seeing as they can zoom with a P-51 when they weigh thousands of pounds less.

Using Krusty's unsupported charge of his self perceived "magical" energy retention of the P-40 and try to explain it away by comparing the energy retention of the Spitfire is so way off base it's not even funny.  It shows that you don't know anything at all about any of these planes and how they performed in real life.  If you did, you'd know why the Spitfire was able and why Krusty isn't correct.

ack-ack

Stretching things there, but I admit I don't know much about how they preformed IRL. Care to explain why spits can zoom with a heavier plane (and dive with one, never got that either)?

[Krusty]

No need to attack me on this Ack-Ack. I never threw out case studies, but from overall reputation and from anecdotes and stories I've read, it has never been a superb zoomer, never been a clean airframe (seems to have 10mph top speed range no matter what engine you put in it), never been big on E retention so much.

Much like how the Hurricanes in this game retain E far longer than seems historically proven.


Please note I never drew the spitfire comparison. I had nothing to do with that. Ignoring that, there are issues with the P-40 flight model that I hope are revisited whenever they are remodeled.

[Nemisis]

Another question I would like answered eventually, Krusty. What IS up with the hurri's? When I tested it, the IID gained about 5500 ft compared to the P-38's 6200ft, both brought up to 375mph in a dive to the deck.

[BulletVI]

Another Question ??

Why is it the lighter aircraft always out dive the heavier aircraft.

I.E 

     The Zero can catch a Spit 8 in the dive when the Spit 8 is heavier.
I mean i have seen the F4U out dive the Zero But the Spit Should aswell as if i remember if the aircraft is heavier than its oppenent then in a dive due to weight and gravity then it accelerates faster doesnt it ?????????
