And if it gets added (big IF), it'll be the second aircraft to have a non-forward fixed gun.  :aok


read it has 3 forward guns 1 rear dorsal and 1 rear ventral

for a total of 5 guns not to mention 1000lbs of ord

I never said it didn't have any other guns. Why would not read your post but quote it anyway?  :lol

Let's make this clear. The Ar-234 is the only plane with rearward firing guns that is FIXED.
If this was added, it would be the second, albeit, firing downward, but still rearward, FIXED gun.


  the game is concentrated on combat, not on shaking the screen.

I would fly that crate. :aok  And the mb.152 is not nearly as awkward looking as the d.520.

you gotta admit, the french made some butt ugly and mostly ineffective aircraft...

ms.406
(Image removed from quote.)

mb152
(Image removed from quote.)

d.520 (looks like a modified mig3)
(Image removed from quote.)
(Image removed from quote.)

arsenal vg33
(Image removed from quote.)

amiot 350
(Image removed from quote.)


 If it was up to me I would add all of those except the Arsenal which only 12 were delivered  :aok

Just because the French were 1 of the early countries taken out they absolutely deserve a spot in this game as do a few other country's



Okay..Add 2 Country's at once, Australia and France next plane update Add ...CAC Boomerang and the Dewoitine D.520

French ground attack fighter. Does everyone think French just saw Luftwaffe and just waived white flags ?
We need diversity plane and country wise not the 1945 fast cannon rides.
Some of us guys like the early/mid-war props

 :frown:


Well the french did plant palm tree's down the highway into Paris, so the Germans would march in the shade.

/Seriously great find, I would vote for it with a side order of He-111 and dessert order of tator tots.

This is slightly off target but in looking at those French designs, did not the last one basically look like a Yak? I've seen design specs for a 1960's era jet that Mirage did not build. It was a single engine, high, swing-wing super sonice attack plane. It looks almost identical to the later Mig-23/27 bird. There is almost no chance the Russians/Soviets designed the Mig-23/27 and it just accidentally looks like the French plane. Did the French collaborate with the Russians/Soviets as early as the 1940's?

no colaboration that I know of. One problem doesn't always have many solutions, See mig15 and f86.
