The P-61 is no more of a bomber than a P-38, P-51 or P-47 was.   Like a lot of U.S. fighters, the P-61 was used on occassion to attack ground targets like trains, convoys, etc.

Also like I pointed out, the lack of any real night time modeling and the absence of plane mounted radar would make the P-61 rather useless.  If HiTech was going to add modeling for night time or plane mounted radar than the P-61 might have a place.

I'm pretty sure the RAF Mustang that had the 20mm cannons was used mostly as a ground attack plane in North Africa.  Don't know how many were made but a few definitely saw some action.  I think the US equivelent was known as the P-51A (but minus the 20mm cannons).

     <> Brady, sorry for the bad reply.  Just seem'd like everyone was being Mean, i mean all i really asked was for everyone to leave some planes they would like in AHII.  But instead everyone decided to correct me.  Plus getting laid off at work that day didnt seem to help much.  <>

Mustang Mk1a had 4 20mm hispano cannons, BUT it had the Allison engine, not the merlin. So it had rather mediocre top speed and bad acceleration.
