M 10 achillies which has a 17 pounder and the 75mm gun

M 18 Hellcat why not it was the fastest thing on treads.

Beaufighter and the halifax Mk III or the short stirling need to be added if were getting another us 4 engine heavy then its time for one of the other aliied four engine heavies to be added  

and the beaufighter deservesto be here it had a great service record.

M-10's had something called "rivets". If they encountered a Tank Round and sheared, it bounced around the innards of the tank/crew.    

The M-18 was most certainly NOT "the fastest thing on treads in WWII".  

The Beau should been added prior to us even getting to vote on a 29.

Hurricane Mk IId, Il-2?

Axis are the ones lacking any dedicated air-to-armor units in AH.
whats the best convergence to set the IID's 40mm's on?

[you being silly aside] that really comes down to shooting style.  I always advise people to set it out past the normal 250-400...... At the same time, when attacking gv's it is far less important for you to be hitting the same spot over and over.  (ie. a tank losing it's turret will not kill it compared to a plane losing it's wing)

At the end of the day, it should come down to the cannon you're firing.  (The Russian's shoot a little lower than the American's.)
