I would love to see this aircraft added. It played a large role in the pacific, and also claimed the last two kills of the war in the pacific.

Role: Night fighter and Intruder
Max speed: 369mph@20'000ft
Service Ceiling: 33'100ft
Range: 1000 miles (1900 with ext fuel)
Empty weight: 20'965 lb
Max take-off weight: 32'400 lb
Armament: 4x 20mm cannon in lower forward fuselage, 4x 12.7mm (.5") in dorsal turret

Kudos on listing the speed for the wartime P-61A or B instead of listing the speed for the post war P-61C.

+1  I know it's a night fighter, but we do not fight historically in the MA

I'mm thinking this is a fast turkey in the MA, but packs a punch, and the trainable guns I'm sure will be interesting to see against bombers, especially the lanc (which unfortunately gets hacked from the sky in disturbing numbers already)

I'm still waiting for the Me-410.  Don't give them anything else to do until they finish it!
