My clamouring for new vehicles starts now!
« on: October 16, 2003, 11:18:02 AM »
Ok, here's what AH2 will need to add to the current list of aircraft in order to set the benchmark for WW2 flight simulators:

U.S.:
P-51B with the Malcolm Hood


B-25 Mitchell (maybe get a version with the cannon in the bomb bay)



================
P-40N (the most widely produced version of the plane)

================
Japan:
Ki-44 Shoki


J2M Raiden



Ki-87 Hayate


Ki-100 (a Hien with a radial engine and cut-down fuselage)

================
France:
D.520


And that's just a start.

There were a lot of B25 versions, wasn't there?

I think  i recall hearing of one with a 125mm cannon.. I've seen pictures of some, man they carried a bunch of varied ord//

An early IL2 with the 16 rockets would be cool, as well as the Type 3M, possibly even a Type T..

A Mossie bomber, a later version of our current mossie (and our current mossie fixed, Tyvm)

An SM-79 would be fun to have..

Now for stuff that'll be used.. (hehe)

P39..

75mm Sherman!

Artillery for M3..

JS-2..


Can you tell i'm not a huge fighter jock?

For those of you that have a "Ghosts"  Calander....

Look at the PBY Catalina for October.   Simply a beautiful picture.  

I dont know how much use it would have,  But It would have a certain coolness factor.  I would love to see this on the list.   Seems like you should be able to go to the flight engineers postion in the Stem of the Parisol wing for added candy, as well as the gun bubbles.  

It would be good for scenarios.  

::Looks up at the PBY on the Calander again::

Man that is a very cool looking A/C...   :)

Yeah, Grimm, that sure is.  Looks there should be glass in the front though. That picture really shows how big that side blister is too.

I would love to have the PBY in AH, if for no other reason than it is SO cool.

The PBY is one of my all time favorites. I'd love to see one in Aces High, perhaps as a lightly armed troop carrier? In order to keep things balanced, it could only take off from ports, and give less points for capturing a base.  Maybe even perk it about 10 points.

Nah, just leave it alone, no perks.  And use the -5A or -6, the amphibian versions.

The good thing:  guns.  The bad thing:  SLOW.

But a beautiful aircraft, nonetheless.  I vote to put it in, too.

BUT REMEMBER, no new planes in AH2 for a while.  Patience, young Jedis, while the Force is put back into balance by the HTC developers.
