+1 for more country specific transports.

I see no reason why we can't have the Tabby and the JU-52.

Performance of a transport isn't so important that a different shape and skin can't just be slapped on the C-47 flight model, increasing or decreasing top speed as necessary.

It would give a different feel to the special events and AvA.

I'm afraid we'll need the Beaufighter first for Topsy strafing purposes.

H8K2-L Seiku 'Emily'

Maximum speed: 290 mph
Range: 4,440 mi
Armament: two 20mm Type 99 cannon
Capacity: 30 to 64 troops.


Only 2 MPH slower, but I doubt it was capable of airborne operations.  Also, only 36 were built.
