I didn't see where it's a requirement for night to be added in AH, could you point that link out to me?  Not to mention they completed many daytime sorties as well.  As far as radar abilities the P-61 could use settings like the FI uses.  Instead of seeing a con at 6k maybe 8k icon range.

You're drooling over a night-fighter to be added. As a day fighter, it brings nothing to the game for the MAers. As far as plugging event gaps, it really doesn't. You want it because you think it's 'cool.'  :D

How does it bring nothing to the game?? Please explain how you know the exact reasons I'd like to see something added to AH?

That was more of a joke in response to the Meteor picture, but you have your panties in a knot again...and I'm not going to get in to it in Snuggies thread.  You have a problem, pm me about or ignore my post.

It took 3, 2, 100 years though. 

It worked for the M-18, didn't it? :D

You're giving yourself way to much credit and taking yourself way too seriously. Do what I do. Don't.  :)

In order to really get the most out of the upcoming terrain updates, we really need this:



"Then out spake brave Horatius, the Captain of the gate:
 To every man upon this earth, death cometh soon or late.
 And how can man die better, than facing fearful odds.
 For the ashes of his fathers and the temples of his Gods."

The 'second string' of close support aircraft and a trainer. Pretty but not much functionality past that.
If you tink the masses whine that the He-111 is a hangar queen .....

I don't think it will be a hangar queen, 20mm cannons on a small agile aircraft. The only reason it was a close support aircraft is because the yanks hubris caused them to give us crappy jobs. Here's a photo taken by an AH player Breadrol.



No thank you Turkish, I'm sweet enough.

Perhaps, but it still didn't even have a single combat kill during the war, not that it would of. I understand the Aussie frustration as to taking a back seat, but still the Boomerang was not exactly a top line fighter, unless it comes from great alt in aces high - it won't stand any chance other then Ho'ing if someone gets that close to it.

I would say 500 pages and the beaufighter which would serve more of a purpose just keeps getting backseated.

It's function would be to dodge late war monsters and watch them impact on the landscape.

How many kills did the Ta-152 have?  What about the Meteor?  It flew in the war, nuff said. 
If it comes to pass, you can bring out your 109gay4 or whatever easy mode plane you like and enjoy dispatching my Boomerang - if you can. 
Either way, it's a win-win.

Yeah I love my easy mode rides like the P-51 and Spit 16 and Gay4.
