My big list of wanted airplanes

[Karnak]

I still want it! 

Why?  It would be an absolute waste of HTC's resources.

[B-17]

Who cares? It's a 'what-if'.

You want to load up with gunners and go HORDE HUNTING don't you !!!

And I already DO get a gunner, and fly into hordes

And I already DO get a gunner, and fly into hordes

I've never done that, but I'll bet it's a blast ... 8 guys in a YB 40 could probably cut a pretty big hole in a bunch of suprised 51s. I'd bet you could deack a base/town in 1 pass with 5 gunners & REALLY tick a few people off !!!

[B-17]

I didn't even think of de-acking... Imagine if you just circled the airfield in one big circuit... Uber-vulching

They would LAST longer, too; they had extra armor.

And Extra Ammo!

People would figure out quite quickly in game why the YB-40 wasn't successful.

ack-ack

Oh, I know why they weren't... woud be fun as heck though

My ingame name is fish (I fly for the rooks)
The 2 planes I am in most of the time is the Mosquito and N1k2
I fully expected some of the planes to be shot down for one reason or another but I thought I'd throw em' in their anyway (Sorry about the KI-61, forgot to erase that one)
The JU-52, DO-17 and HE-111 are thee absolute must planes
all others are just suggestions

Not that I disagree with any of them being added, but it is probably wiser to request one at a time. I definitely want to see the P-61 in game 
 

How many kills did the P-61 actually have by the end of the war and if it was Soley a "Night Fighter" how would that play into the game...just asking?

It has as close as imaginable to the same performance and capabilities that the B-29 does while having served in low double digit, if not single digit, numbers.  Being as large as the B-29 it would likewise take an enormous amount of work for HTC to add it.

So, why would we need what is essentially a B-29 with a different 3D model?

At least the Halifax, which I object to on the same grounds due to its performance mirroring the Lancaster so much, served in the thousands.  The B-32 has no such excuse.

Variety keeps people interested. Not so much myself, and by the sounds of it you included, but the majority enjoy swimming in a variety of aircraft choices.

Variety is accomplished by having aircraft that perform differently and have different capabilities, not aircraft that just look different.  Add to that the fact that very few aircraft would take as much work for HTC to add as the B-32.  Couple that with the fact that it was a complete non-factor in the war.  Include the fact that far fewer B-32s entered service than did Ta152s.  You end up with a unit that makes no sense at all to add to the game until an awful, bloody lot of units not yet here have been added, so many that you're looking at the B-32 showing up round about 2025.

You can have one B-32 or three or four other aircraft.  Which adds more variety?

[Karnak]

And just because I know that I have a reputation here for being against American aircraft being added, let me give a quick list, off the top of my head, of American aircraft I'd like to see added eventually.

A-26 Invader
A-36 Apache
B-17E or F (preferably F I think) Flying Fortress
B-24D Liberator
B-25J Mitchel
F6F-3 Hellcat
P-38F Lightning
P-38H Lightning
P-51A Mustang
P-61A or B (preferably including the top turret) Black Widow
SB2C Helldiver
SBD-3 Dauntless
TBD Devastator
