Please Give us bomber freaks the B-29.

I'd be willing to lose the B-17 for it.

Pass

Rather see the HE-177 GRIEF or FW-200 CONDOR.

He177 would be OK, but the Fw200 would be more useless than the Ju88A-4.

I'd rather see the Ju188A-2 and Pe-2FT than anything else.

I agree w/karnak the Ju188 would be sweet

Apparently the Luftwaffe fans care about whether it is useless or not given the whining about the Ju88A-4 as compared to the B-17G, B-26B and Lancaster Mk III that they've done. The Fw200 would produce such whining that it would be irritating. In order to head off said whining I don't think the next German bomber should be useless in the context of the MA.

The He177 would work. The Do217 would work. The Ju188A-2 would work and I like it. Personally I think the Ju188A-2 is the best of the lot, certainly better than the Do217. Most Luftwaffe fans seem to prefer the He177 though.

I realy rahter have a real; Russian Bomber and a real Italian one, and or a half Dozen breand new Fighters instead, with all the work that a B29 would intail we could I am shure have the two Buff or 5 or 6 fighters, I read whear a Buff like the B17 took as much time to build as 4 New fighters (single engine single seat).

Adding useless bombers takes about 10 times as much work for HTC as adding useless fighters. More so then the 202 wich probably shares 60% of its model with the usefull 205.

I don't know. The B-29 is the Mt. Everest of bombers for a WWII flight sim. Its got to be built sometime, just like Everest had to be climbed. Might as well be AH, with it's decided emphasis on late war hardware. (Excepting of course the 1937 Japanese planes

)

been brought up before....most ppl who want the b-29 also want nukes. no b-29, no squeaking about not having nukes.

Can't have a FW200, people would like "Ohh...they got Hitler's personal transport in, Hitler BAD"

Btw, Germany is doing their version of the British top 100 Greatest people, but Hitler will not be in it.
The German's making it said "But if he was in, we could garrantee he wouldn't be the top 3"

lol, top 3.
