Which wars?

Swordfish was only used in WWII.

It entered service in 1932.

Karnak, I think we have a live one!  :D







WW1 lasted from 1914 to 1918.  That pretty much disqualifies a plane that wasn't built until the 1930's.

Biplane fighters were designed and produced well until the WW2 started and were in widespread use with most countires.

Make a Google search for example for:

I-15
I-153
Gloster Gladiator
CR-42

Swordfish would be a nice Biplane to fly. I fly one in MSFS2k2 and its great.
But HiTech did mention once that they don't intend to put any Biplane in AH.
Maybe he would sometime change his decission :)

Ha! That's where you are wrong![/i]  The Wright Flyer was a biplane, and it ... it...  oh I guess you were right after all.
