fill out the Italian set
« on: August 04, 2017, 02:48:27 PM »
C.200 Saetta: Early war fighter with bb guns.  1,100 produced.   Guaranteed to pwn Spit XVIs and even Yak XVIs.

Fiat G.55 Centauro: Mid war fighter with late war firepower.  The bestest Italian plane of the war. 

SM.79 Sparviero: Iconic tri-motor bombers.  The scourge of the Med, armed with torpedoes or bombs.

Toss in an Italian tank.



(Then it'd be nice to see a Yamato Class battleship - along with some Japanese air balance.)

C.200 Saetta:   Guaranteed to pwn Spit XVIs and even Yak XVIs.

Am I reading about the wrong plane? Macchi C.200: 870 hp 14-cylinder air-cooled radial engine?

Spitfire Mk XVI would smack it around like a red-headed step child.  C.200 had it's hands full against the Hurricane and Gladiator (first C.200 lost in combat was from a Gladiator).

I'd especially like to see the SM.79 in the game.   Useful for scenarios and what a great look.

Don't forget the CR 42. She was a biplane, but had a 12 to 1 kill ratio on the Russian front at first of war.

Horse drawn carts had 12:1 kill ratio on the Russian front at the beggining of the war...

It took a while till the Yak and La mosters showed up. From the Russo-Japanese war to WWII the Russian army is notoriously slow in getting into momentuum.
