If we can shoehorn this in as a variant, then my choice is:-




Kawasaki Ki-100 I-Otsu.

Why a Japanes CV is a reasonable request for a new variant of an existing unit:

The behavioral modeling need not be modified - it can be left to cruise at the same speed and operating it on the 2 dimensional water terrain remains the same.

All that needs to be addressed is shaping and skinning and where to place turrets and aaa (ok, modeling slightly different armament but, for the most part, the ai ack cloud is the ai ack cloud - player operated mounts would be a selected part of: 12 × 100 mm (3.9 in)/65 cal anti-aircraft guns in twin turrets and 51 × 25 mm (1 in) anti-aircraft guns).

It really will make a MAJOR difference, regarding Pacific scenarios when it comes to immersion.

The Taiho is also a possibility:

Why are folk asking for a B17E?

If there were another 17 added, the F makes far more sense in terms of numbers and Tuesdays of operation.  It would stand in better for the E then vice versa.  Considering the most well known B17 of them all was an F only strengthens the point.

Hate to say it but i like to see the P-38H.  Also P-47D-23 or 30.   However, what we really need is more Italy, Russia, Japs, Finn, and French AC.

F6F-3, B-17E+F, B-25J, P-38H

But most of all I'd like the B-24D
