I would put forward that the current radar is even better in a lot of ways, and every plane gets it.  Also while primarily used at night (like several planes towards end) P61's didnt stay grounded during the day,  (in fact as I recall one is famous for shooting down a b-29 during a daylight ).

For people who like variety (and not saying you don't, but aren't you in a P-38 quite a bit?) this woluld be a fun plane in the fantasy world that is the MA.  It would see use as the Havock does.  Certainly would be no hangar queen.

please add.......

more versions of p38s, Moss, and some more LW bombers like HE111

I think we really should get the b-29:D

You guys dont play IL2 do you ? with the recent add on of AEP
& and upcoming patch that will include 4 variants of the B25 ,
I 185 and and additional Spitfire  , Il2 has become the place to go
to fly the majority of early & late war LW & VVS planes .
U.S. planes such as the P39 , P40M & N , P51B ,C (w/malcolm hood) & of course the D , 3 variants of the P47 have been added on also , there are so many to list you'd just have to visit IL2's
website with the complete lists of flyeable & AI birds , also there
is a Pacific WarBirds set comin out this Fall with over 40 flyeable
USN , USAAF , IJN & JAAF aircraft , I've been told the B29 & H8K Emily will possibly make the flyeable lists amongst them . Battle of Britain is already in the works for eary '05 with ALL the partcipating warplanes that flew in it . I like AH as much as anybody else , but when flying the same ol birds get boring , I have a nice alternative  to go to

I dont see how it would be useless, With the bombload and armenent it could carry I could easily see it replacing the A20 and such.
Besides since when did a planes original design and intention mean anything here?
Here where we have dive bombing B17's and lancasters.
C47's doing loop da loops with troops on board (always wondered how the troops would have felt about that move)
 And I've ocasionally used 262's as a ground attack plane.
I see people using ghe A20 as a fighter and thats probably not something for which it was originally intended either.

If Radar were more realistically modeled which would mean very few planes would have ANY kind of dar and would have to rely soley on radio reports I could buy into the arguement of the night time and plane mounted dar. but its not.
I think this ( the P61) would be a great plane to have, Would look great in formation too.
