With all the talk of asking to add the B-29 or other bombers like the B-24 and B-25, I think we need to add at least one Japanese heavy bomber. I think this is the one that should be added.

It is captured B-17.

I much would like to see the H8K2 Emily Flying-boat in Aces High.
The H8K2 Emily is the only real Japanese heavy bomber.

See this thread.

This game desperately needs more axis bombers, and another perk bomber. The B29 is still needed. I'd agree that we don't need a B24 or B25 yet.
