Well then! The Sparviero entered service in 1936 and served `til 1952 (1959 in Lebanon).

Yeah, a total number barely over 1,000 were built. At least that's more than the Chog.

A-26 Invader or B-26A (Marauder Mk. I)? I would say no to both because there are more important aircraft to add such as the TBD, Pe-2, and Beaufighter.

Actually, the B-25J should be first. It was used a bit more than the Beaufighter. This way it can be included in a lot more special events.

It needs the tail gunner position with formations.

don't tell that to the WWII Australian squadrons who flew the Beaufighter

The Beaufighter and B-25J are the most needed planes.

B-25J really should have already been added. Not much extra to make since all the parts are on the existing C and H models. Just graft the nose from the C onto the H fuselage and bingo!.

B25's are Bomber/Attack aircraft    ok 9816 Mitchells made-only 4318 were J's, there were a bunch of variants-A-B-C-D-E-F-J
b25j-NC was made a strafer . only 1000 were made strafer's.

5928 Beaufighter's were made-they were Fighter/Attack aircraft. and also well suited for night fighting, and can carry some bombs-rockets-or even a torpedo for anti shipping.

B25's only carry 3600Pds of ords
B26's 6000
B24's 8000
B17's 6000
Lancaster's 14,000pds
B25J-NC would be good for the Main Arena-would make Allison even harder to shoot down, lol

I would rather use a Bomber with the most bombs.
Fighter/Attack planes can do the strafing and bomb****ing.

but good luck with your wish

You are confusing this 2 aircraft. The B-26 was the Marauder bomber. Post war, the Marauder was phased out of service and when the Air Force became an interdependent service, the A-26 Invader, attack bomber, was rebranded the B-26 Invader. It served through the Vietnam War where it was rebranded back as the A-26 Invader after 40 were modified as B-26K in country, the modified were reclassed as A-26A. The original A was to be a night fighter, but the Air Force had the Night Widow.
If you happen to be in the Fort Worth,TX area, drop my the Vintage Flying Museum. There are 2 A-26s there. One is the K model that now flying and the other is a B model in Korean markings. I am part of the group, CAF Invader Squadron.

I'd rather wish for the B-26 to have the ordnance option to carry torpedoes.

why carry torpedoes on the b26 when it can sink a cv at easy from 6k with very little damage taken.

Because B-26 crews were also trained on using torpedoes and used torpedoes in combat.

The Horten 229, the worlds first stealth jet airplane invisible to radar. It's maiden flight was Feb 2, 1945.












I imagine the perk cost would be about 2,000 without any ENY.  :D  :D  :D

Never operational.  (Also not a stealth aircraft.   This is a myth.)
