January 2012 FSO - Normandy Summer

Copy that Bino.

D-Day US fighter force was dominated by Razorback P-47Ds and P-51Bs. Later model 51Ds and bubble top 47's didn't become more prevalent until later. I don't see D-11 or 51B's in the lineup~ seems like they would fit for at least the first frame.

Looking forward<S>

Actually P-47D-21s and 22s were the dominate Jugs at Normandy. Even though they were Razorbacks the P-47D-25 is a more realistic representation than the D11. Also if you didn't see the P-51B look again. It's the first USAAF fighter listed in the writeup.

Funny~ thought I read 51D's in the write up somewhere, I'll be darned.

Yep it's too bad we don't have a D-15 through D-26 Jug representative for just this reason, they were many more of those produced than the D-25 blocks. Still think with the way the game is modeled, the D-11's maneuverability is better and more historically accurate competing vs 109's 190's if you disregard the bomb/rocket truck aspect of the D-25.

Looking forward to the setup either way Shifty<<S>>

Yeah I'd like to see another razorbacked Jug or two added to the sim myself.
