1.10 Plane Additions...sigh

More US Iron. Well, at least it's early war era.

Thanks for the A6M2, but there are so many more valuable IJN planes not in the set!

What's even worse is that HTC doesn't even seem to be listening to our desires now.  P40 for instance has had more requests than any others that I've seen.

I'd like to see the Ki-43 Hayabusa/Oscar added to the set when/if the P-40 (any variant) is brought in.  Both aircraft were involved in the early stages of the war and were used in various capacities up until the end.  I think they would compliment each other very well, like the Val and Dauntless would.

cc, Ki-43 was main fighter of IJAAF.

when they are modeling an era of axis dominance.
I am friggin dumbfounded...
Give your head a shake sky viper.
2 of the most signifigant AC of the war. Diverse in capablility and locked in mortal combat across the wide open spaces of the pacific...
and you whine about it.
Its almost unbelievable.
Are you just trolling for the whine of the week?

A whine?
Why is it that folks like you whine about whining?
Can't a person just have an oppinion and display his/her displeasure?
Give your own head a shake!

If it's all about getting IJN balance, then it's pretty silly to mention the P-40, even if it was tacked on as an afterthought to show how HTC doesn't care about us.

Psst...
The P-40 killed quiet a few Japanese Planes.

It's always funny to read a whine about a release that hasn't even come out yet.  Do ya think that we just might be making more than a couple planes for this release?

I'm all ears (and eyes) SUPERFLY, show me.

perhaps SKVP the problem comes from available data on each aircrafts performance, visuals etc.

I agree I'd like to see more japanese and other non allied planes, but the biggest factor I'd imagine in modelling any plane is the data sources and availability.

While u collect 'credible' data sources, why not model AC that you have sufficient data on NOW while collecting more data on those aircraft (japanese for example) for which data is hard to come by.

There's the answer I would expect to see from HTC, but I think there is enought out there to make it work.

You'll be happy soon enough Sky Viper.  We're not biased towards any country.  Yes, acurate data is very very important to us, and it is sometimes hard to come by.  We like to wait until we've got good references before we spend the time to develop new additions to the game.
All I can say is that there are potentially more planes on the way for 1.10 than you may think.

Despite the fact i may campaigne for this or that plane over this or that plane, I am always happy to get new toys and I am very appricative of the work that goes into bringing us all these new toys.

Brewster F2A-1 ... pleeeeeze  ... and in FAF colors

It would be easy to add the more common for US Navy and Marines F2A-2 and the degraded F2A-3 after that.

[mrsid2]

Yes bring brewster to AH!

Makes great nordic map fights against La-7's. Too bad nobody flies the historic counterpart La-5 in MA.

[mipoikel]

How about Fokker and Morane saulnier (dont rermember models) with FAF colors! Brewster is a must! Also Bristol Blenheim.

The Brewster F2A, against the LA-7?!  

[mrsid2]

Yes, face the finnish challenge!

I doubt there were many if any La7 vs BW fights but La-5 was a common enemy and I hold La-5 almost as leathal as la-7, only speed is a small difference.

Yep, only thing LA-7 can do in that situaton is run run and run.

Bring the beaufighter to Aces High!!

Thanks Dr. Ambrose
And this has something to do with helping bring more Japanese planes to AH? You don't see an inherent contradiction in complaining about a Pro-American bias, then implying that an American plane should be added?
