I Predict the Next Plane HTC Brings Forth Will Be...

Sorry Lusche, I just don't see the 410 as a fighter any way you want to present it. I think the whole design was a little confused and far too compromised from the get go.

I'd much rather have seen the Gladiator or the Defiant, the Ki-100, the Westland Whirlwind (my personal fav), the D.520 or even something like the Fairy Firefly included. I'm not sure any of those could be classed as good fighters or in the case of the Firefly even as a fighter, but I'm sure I'd have more fun in those doing ACM than in a big heavy old bus with lots of armament options.

I think we simply have incompatible philosophies which make discussion difficult.

Woot He 111!

Event junky approves 

[ink]

I really don't want you to have that

you are a meanie  

[CAP1]

the He 111.

You saw it here first.   

 i'd like to see some older japanese stuff. maybe one of the 41-42 era ki's.......

[palef]

Fiat G.55!!

[Sunka]

We NEED the 111,and we have needed it for a long time.

 Regardless of any view as to the performance of the HE-111 it still belongs in the game. I was always amazed it was not the very first German bomber to be put in AH many years ago and is the equivalent of having no Spitfires. The very sight of the HE-111 says The Luftwaffe and WWII.

That saying is right! 

Your German? My word!

AH is getting like real life... I'm being increasingly ignored 

I always listen to you Lusche

The Ju88 was the more significant bomber for the Luftwaffe for most of the war and it makes sense that the Ju88 was the first German bomber added.  Not having the He111 is more like not having the Wellington.

I'd really like to see updates to the some of the Ancient Ones.   The B-26, for example.   Or update the Ki.61 and its a relatively a small step to add the Ki.100, since they share the same fuselage and cockpit, only differing by grafting a radial engine onto the frame in place of the inline mill.    And probably the C.202 and C.205 are so similar much of the effort could be shared between the two...

The B-26 and C.20X have the oldest 3D models left in AH, both being from AH v1.00.  The Lancaster Mk III and Ju88A-4 are both from v1.04 and the Lancaster is the most used AH1 model left in the game.

As to the Ki-61 and Ki-100, they are more different than that.  The Ki-100 was built out of Ki-61-II fuselages, not Ki-61-I fuselages, thus having a cut down rear fuselage for better visibility.
