Make the P51D a perked aircraft
« on: December 31, 2010, 02:15:23 AM »
My reasoning for this is cause it is quite a good plane and is very versatile

I also propose the same for the Spitfire MkXVI

Thoughts?

What do you think a P51C is?  It's a P51B built in Dallas.  So we have it already.  Perking any Mustang would be just silly,as would perking the 16.  Just shoot em.

I think this is an original idea and warrants some consideration.

Hmm, rolling perk system with plane perks based on the KD ratio of the previous tour might do a little to create diversity.

And those who DO fly those particular models fairly often? I'm sure they'll demand to perk YOUR favorite rides...

 cool pony dives in from 20k extends 3 sectors, comes back at 20k, dives, extends for 3 sectors.  oh yeah, its a great plane.  that's how most people fly it, same for fw190's.  a few can actually fly fight in it.  most just hit and run.  you want to perk one, try the p47 with its unlimited ammo 3400 rounds?

Just had a quick look at this, 104 vehicles to use, discount chute and gun, if you perked the top 20 on KD you wouldnt get the P51D it comes in about 24, P47M would get perked at lowest rate coming in at 19 or 20th place.

262's and 163's should not even be in this game..neither did much in the real war. 163's total of 8 kills :huh

I think their initial fear factor in the war and far advanced engineering at the time earn them the right to be in our little game.

Plus, they're nice to have for scenarios such as the upcoming 2011 Battle over Germany scenario.

Grab the F4U-4 and compare it with the P51D, compare the performance differences, the gun package differences, and ordnance differences, and then report as to why you the F4U-4 is perked and the P51D is not.

Double check your answers.

Perking the P51D does have its merit, other than the fact that the crying would be worse than a gym full of 300 children who just saw Barney get killed.  :lol
