I'm partial to how the fireball in the third pic looks myself.

Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

We got the chog with its 20mm why not the F6F with a perked option of the 20MM.

Have you not been reading the thread?

The only F6Fs that used the 20mm cannon operationally (-5N and -5P) are variants that aren't in the game, and the standard F6F was never equipped with 20mm cannon outside a handful of test machines.

The F4U-1C WAS used operationally.

I think you'd need some sort of mechanic in place for radar-equipped aircraft first, though. I don't want to see it in the game just for an excuse to slap 20mm cannon on the F6F.

Naw, that should be a mechanic set aside for patrol craft like the PBY/Sunderland/H8K.
