P-63 KingCobra......again

[Megalodon]

OK, what is the model of P51 with the cannons please ?  And was it flown and saw combat and got kills in WW2 ?

Thank you.

The P-51.... Yes!

A-36 6x50's  dive flaps and eggs saw plenty of combat

I have advocated in favor of the A-36 as well.

250 Mk1a quite a few more than the F4u1c p-47m 152H-1 Brew shall i go on

You say stuff like that like you think it matters.

In my opinion it does matter when we have a plane in the game that had maybe 8 of the variant that flew and saw combat

You are correct, A-36 had 6 50s and the British design Mk 1A had 4x 20mm cannons.

But you are misreprenting it's combat use.  The RAF birds order was 150 Mk IA.  They didn't get all those birds as many were taken over by the USAAF, of which a few were sent to North Africa with a pair of recon squadrons.  The RAF combat birds were mainly Mk I or Mk II Mustangs with the 50 cal, 30 cal mix of the Mk I or the 4 50 cal set up of the Mk II.  Those were used for Army Co-op work and recon too. 

I don't have any problem with adding an Allison Mustang, but do it based on the birds that got used consistantly.  Again the early Mustang I's were operational with the RAF for a long time.  The A36 got a lot of use in the MTO.  The P51A made a name for itself in the CBI with Phil Cochron and the 1st Air Commandos.  Many were modified in the ETO for low level photo work.

Adding the 4 cannon Allison Mustang is nothing more then an excuse for another 4 cannon bird in the MA however, and those get abused by folks enough already.

The P-51 <NA-91>  92 ..FD438 thru FD567 as MkIa   and  148... 41-37320 thru 41-37469 as P-51-NA

The A-36 <NA-97> 500  .... 42-83663 thru 42-84162 as A-36-A-1-NA

Does its use dominate the long nosed 190 category of airframe?  No, it does not.  The rarely used cannon armed P-51 would completely overshadow the vastly more representative P-51A and even the better performing P-51B.  The closest analogy would be the F4U-1C, and look how that turned out, it had to be perked.

In addition that mistakes were made in the past is not a good reason to make them going forward.

 People would love the damn thing   it would be .... should I dare say .... FUN!

Those Burma based birds would make the most sense to me, but you know what?  I really don't care either way in the end.  Give it your best shot to get em all.  Since they'll be doing the early canopy, please include the option to use either that or the Malcom on the 51B/Cs too so there is more accuracy for each particular skin.  Don Gentile's bird being a good example of one that needs that option.

*Ding* You have used one slot of your 'Megalodon's Top 20 planes that have not yet been modeled for AHII but should be list' but you have not yet selected which number from 1 to 20 it will currently hold. Once that is selected you will have 19 left. Please select a number from 1 to 20.

Notice he got his Ki-43 and his He-111. We also have the Yak-3 now.

There seems a trend.

 Yeah 1 more and then the 51 IN DA HOUSE  

 Novote Ar

Megalodon, you know you could just create a custom arena and ground everything that isn't American and flew after 1942.

It would be essentially what you want, even if you don't know it.


But either way, just leave your bias at home, and stop the "Murica!!!!  " attitude.

You got your backside pummeled quite a lot in that thread. No wonder this is a sensitive subject. Have a doughnut.

*Ding* place your current aircraft selection in a slot from 1 to 20 and select 19 more.
