So? The widowmaker was a nightfighter through and through. If you wanted to make a weak case for it, you could say "we already have two night bombers." The widowmaker was a nightfighter and was used solely as such. And two planes out of 100+ isn't a very good defense. If you can tell me any more (specifically for night fighting, not just with the skins to do so), then you can do so.
The arguement for not having night fighters is because we no longer have night time and the reason for them being used as night fightes is because of their radar.
Well neither argument holds water when it comes to this game.
As I mentioned in another post. It is not the fault of the planes why we dont have night. But rather the ignorance of some of the players.
Still We do have bombers that were like the P61 were almost exclusively used at night.
As for the radar. For them to equip any addition of the P61 with the radar it had. It would actually be a dumbed down version of the radar we have now in every plane and vehicle in the game.
As the radar that all of our planes not so historically have I might add. is far superior to anything the P61's had.
One use the 61's could have however. Is they could be made immune to local radar going down but perhaps at a reduced range. This would and should automatically make it a perk ride
And yes you can point to a couple of planes out of 100. The entire arguement about night is based on how they were historically flown. Yes only few flew missions in the day. But it shows it could have been done much like our dive bombing B-17's and Lancasters and thats been the entire arguement for allowing that.
And how many planes here are consistently flown in their "historical" manner? Come to think of it. How much of anything here is consistently done in a historical manner?
So you see. Not having night. and the P61s radar and historical use as a "night fighter" are not valid or significant enough arguments to keep it out of the game (in laymans terms. they are BS arguments)
There isnt a single argument yet I've seen that holds water in keeping the 61 or any night fighter out of the game
