Also a German jet. I'd hold off adding more unless Dale decides to add a 1946 arena.

How is the He-162 a 1946 fighter? It was in service in 1945.

It's not like I'm asking for the F86 or MiG15...

How's the B-17 a 1945 bomber? It was in service in 1941.

Which would be cool if Dale had a Korean arena. :)

Panthers off of CVs.

The uphill battle a Korean arena would face is the UN side having lots of jets to model (even though the Mig is arguably the best piece of equipment).

If I was asking for a 1946 AC, I would ask for the HE-162D, with forward swept wings and a "V" tail that would be able to kill Korean War fighters, due to a speed nearly the same as the F86. Or better yet, the FW-183 high alt. jet that was designed to kill B29s and B32s with the X2 wire guided A to A missile. Or my HO-229 flying wing  :D But am I asking for these, no. So can we please get back on topic?

Yes I agree, this would be great in about 5 years or so, but I would rather have them finish WW2 first. I think in about 5 years HTC could start to creat this, by then being able to have modeled a few new planes and updateing the ones that need them.

<Boing!> Wish granted.  They should complete the entire WWII plane and vehicle sets, just a few decades from now.

491 mph on the deck and 3,300 to 4,600 ft/min ... seems indeed quite average for the MA.
