The following I've figured out:
Ju-88 A-1[?]
Lancaster
Ostwind

So what else are you gonna toss our way in 1.04?

Maybe some small towns with roads for tanks n' such to hide in?

Maybe a Me-410 with some armament options?

Maybe set-up player-controlled 88s?

ju88-a4 not the a1

Some variants I think, but I have no idea which ones.  I have ju88's flying around my head right now....

Next Bomber they said.  They intro'd the B-26 and said the Lanc would be the next bomber.

I hope that they are making it perfect.

Plus they probably have to add a 2K bomb to the ordinance load out.

Ease up guys  

Flakbait asked what was more planned than the three things he had worked out and Superfly simply corrected a small mistake in FB's list.

They will have add a 4,000 lb bomb to the load out.  By the way the Mossie could carry this bomb as well.

Sorry, I was just correcting the version of the ju88.    They will both be in the next release.  Sorry for the confusion!

Umm.....Thanks for the correction, but what else is gonna be thrown into the mix?

Ostwind [nice 37mm flak gun]
Ju-88 A4 [fun! low-level bombing at its best!]
Lancaster [british B-17; yawn ]

Anything else, or is it just these 3 points?
You might want to lower the potency of the ack. Had my elevator blown off with a single ping [both left and right elev]. And this while hitting a V-field in a 190 A5! Had my spinner gun [Yak-9] taken out by an 88 blast...funny part is it blew behind me. Doesn't that mean the shrapnel would have to through the pilot to hit that 20mm cannon that's mounted inside the engine?

Ahh, well. More stuff for the bug list.

About damage location...

Yesterday I was in A fw190A5 near A27 and I dived in a tiffie to clear a countrymate's six, that put a Knit La5 on my 6 but I was confident that my speed plus could made me live...I fired the typhoon pinging it a bit and making him break (lated got an assist...hi wilbus  ) then I pulleda vertical climb to make the La5 after me hang in prop and kill it in a hammerhead...

of course the La5 was a bunch slower and when it hanged in prop it started to spray (as usual  ). I was pure vertical, and so he was. I heard a single ping and BANG, my engine died...quite strange when the shot was from directly behind  
(BTW, no oil leak, simple BANG and engine gone).

The La5 was shredded by 3 bishops that got him hanging on prop   and I killed a P51 with the engine ded      

But, to the matter, how can a 20mm burst reach a 190's engine from DIRECTLY behind?...it is a bit weird...because I was in the middle of the way to the engine and my pilot had no wounds

Ram, if your sideslip was at  a slight angle, say 2 or 3 degrees, (think of it as your plane as a pencil, almost straight up and down, but slightly angled 2 degrees to the left, 88 degrees perpendicular to the earth), then its very easy to get an engine kill, since any bullet hitting the side of the engine area at an angle is going to impact the designated 'hit bubble'

Other things include slight modifications to the terrain (A1 will be lowered for example), and the re-introduction of the Beta Terrain.
