Exactly, the wood construction was a major problem for the mossy in the Pacific - structure failure also was a major problem in '44 far as I know it was post war only.

The Wood construction had a huge problem with the Humid heat of the pacific, it plagued the Sea mossy until after the war.

Post war 262?

You realize that there was no "post war" production, development, or operations in Germany?  ;)

And yes, there is a big difference between "late war" and "post war"

Sea Mosquito was post war.

Target tug isn't needed as we can shoot aircraft without consequences in AH.

I would like the Mk XVIII though.
