Curtiss P-36 Hawk / H-75

[oboe]

Been having fun in the MA flying the Ki.43 and F4F-4 lately and it made me realize the early War turnfights can be alot of fun compared to BnZ.  There are a few good reasons to include this one.  The 3D model is almost complete - just modify the P-40C to a radial engine and create a new FM.
   
Would open up some new early War scenarios and Snapshots - fall of France,  invasion of Indonesia, invasion of North Africa, Winter War.   Used by more than a few AFs; might be a worthy adversary to the Ki.43, 190E, I-16, and F4F-4.   Gives the P-40C an aircraft it can run from.

+1, but of course, I give a +1 to any new A/C or GVs.

[Krusty]

I always loved the lines of this plane. Always. +1 from me!

[caldera]

I would fly it.  +1

 They are nothing but a radial engine  P40.   slower . worse rate of climb and range.

If that's the logic for saying no, then we should never have had anything but the latest and greatest of the piston powered birds in AH. 

Consider it for FSO and Scenario use among other things.

Its slower than our P-40C, true, but climb rate was actually quite a bit better because it was so much lighter than the Tomahawk.  It would turn better too. 

Range is not really much of any issue in AH.  All you really need is 25-30 minutes on a full tank.

I wish there were more early war birds like this.

I would fly the hell out of a Dewoitine 520, or an MC.200

I'd say it's a great idea. Why does an Aces High wishlist have to consist only of the upper end, late war goodies?

Although I have been pushing for the Fiat G55 for a long time, I too like the early warplanes. I believe the best way to get the most out of them, would be to reinstate the Early War Arena.  The Fiat CR 42 just  to add to the list of old planes. +1

opening the early war arena again would do nothing but spit the player base. What they need is more of an incentive to fly the early war birds.

[trap78]

A BIG +1 to the Hawk. Did someone say CR42...
It would be nice to have an early war arena up for a few hours once a week, same with a mid war arena. As for promoting the use of early war birds in the late war MA, well good luck with that.

I'm all for more early-war birds (especially for scenarios), but the Dewoitine D.520 and some of the early Italian rides (CR.42, G.50) would probably be more useful.
