Well, nobody asked me, but I agree that the RAF needs another fighter added.  I don't think it should be the Spit (any model) or Hurricane.  I think it should be the Boulton & Paul Defiant.  Now that would be a plane that would really add something... uhhh... different, yeah, that's the word, to the game.

YES, Defiant.    No sim has ever modeled it to my knowledge.  If we ever do night fighting then this aircraft would actually be a very good choice to model.

(For those of you who don't know about this plane, it had a turret with 4 .303s in it.  It shot down 60+ 109s during the Battle of Britain before the Germans figured out what it was.  After that, well ... um ... guess.   )

YEs, but hundreds of them saw service up to 1944...how many MS406 were flying in 1944?

bolton paul defiant.. cool.. with the dome gun ;-)
I think I remember that Pyro would love to do a plane with a second gunner. Would be cool.. think he was thinking of a Messerschmidt himself..
