Ki.67 and Ju88 still need updating, IIRC.  But yeah, gettin' down there.  Really looking forward to the re-do of the A-20s.  And the Ju88.    Ki.67 still sees action in the MA, so that's a good one too.

D'oh, yes. I forgot those two. How could I forget the Ju88?!?

I seriously hope we get several versions with that remodel: a -C solid nose strafer like the B-25 has, a A-1 for early BOB-era stuff, our A-4 which is the 1942 era version, and then hopefully a -188 because there are so many similarities between the airframes.

Typhoon was done a long time back.

[Becinhu]

My mistake then. One would think the tempest would have been done at the same time. Carry on

Hopefully when the Ar234b is updated, they'll remove the tail cannon.

Or better yet, add a working periscope. Or maybe even the P Model with 30mm's

And that the ventral gun on the A-20 and Boston is added when they are updated.

I think he was referring to the fact that no operational Ar-234s had the rear facing guns at all.

The tail guns should be removed, but there should also be a case for adding the 2x20mm belly mounted gunpod. That was actually used a number of times in night fighter configuration.

And a few times in dog fighting during daytime operations.

This photo was taken through an actual rear view of a AR-234b periscope on the photo recon version non bomb carrying.



Front view for dive bombing through the periscope.

The D3A is beautiful. A real treat to fly.

Man is she maneuverable!  Really fun to do low level aerobatics with a trackIR

I had a tree top turn fight with a brewster. That was hilarious when I could out turn the Brew and pepper him with the 7.62 staples shooters.

Staples for the win!  I like that description over BB's
