Title: What's the one WWII era plane...
Post by: Pyro on May 05, 2000, 06:24:00 PM
you'd really like to see?  I mean outside of the standard staples of WWII sims and regardless of whether it saw combat in WWII.  I think for me it would still be the Me 410.  I don't know why exactly, but the cockpit would be really cool and the gunnery system for the rear gunner would be interesting.

If you do a 410, you won't have to buy alcohol for a month!

I really enjoyed flying it back in the EAW days...sure would love to see it here.  The Komet would be unique too.

Well, others have picked several, so here's my choice(s).

Ground Attack-Focused:  IL-2/IL-10 or A-26

Mixed Role:  Mosquito or Ju-88 (had to edit this post to add the F7F as well, after reading the last post)


Mostly Air To Air:  Me-262 or Ki-100

I would REALLY love to see someone model the Golden age of Air Racing!  Say from about 29 - 35.

Travel Air Mystery Ship for one.  The airplane designed by a guy at the kitchen table who had the radical idea that speed was related to drag as well as horsepower, and the you could sacrifice HP if it cleaned up a lot of drag.  Everyone laughed at him.  Well Douglas Davis flew this bird in 29 against the military ships and beat them so bad they quit racing after that year.  Funny enough a lot of the subsequent fighter looked alot like the Racing planes from this design.

Give me a set of pylons and Golden age aircraft.  Fly  at 50', go fast and turn left.  Now that is excitement!

Personally I'd like the P40 in RNZAF or RAAF colours.

Even more than a particular plane I'd like to see a completed single scenario set of aircraft modelled.  Once that set is complete work on another set of planes for a different scenario.  The planeset at the moment is missing a couple of planes for a "Fortress Germany" set.  Battle of Britain could be next then the same planes, (with a few additions or variants), would work in a Mediterranian scenario, (ie the defence of Malta, one of the North African campaigns).

Russian Front would have to start almost from scratch on the Russain side.
Pacific campaigns would require the construction of aircraft carriers.

Pyro,

I can't think of the name of it, but I believe it was made by Martin.  Very late in the war, never saw combat, I belive it was designed for the Navy.  It was a ground attack plane along the lines of the AD-1.  Radial engine, big squarish vertical stab, bubble canopy.  Carried a ton of ordinance and could even carry a torpedo.  What the hell was the name of that thing!

P.S. The AD-1 would be kinda neat too now that I think about it.

Yep, was looking at that last week... (4 x .303 one wing, 2.x .303 the other wing - strange arrangement... along with the 4 x 20mm of course!)  Can carry bombs too...

Dornier Do-335A-1 - 474mph @21,325 ft.  1 30mm/2 MG
This a/c is so damned ugly it has to be modeled!

Kyushu J7W1 Shinden - 466mph @28,545   4 30mm

These aircraft are "different" and with their performance they may actually be competitive in the MA rather than some of the other "novelty" a/c.

POP QUIZ: To my knowledge the Shinden has been modeled in at least one other flight sim. Name one.

I'll cast a vote for the P-61B (and NIGHTTIME!!!!!   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif) )

The F7F and F8 would be me second choices I guess

For a cargo type give us a Catalina (use it for Dumbo (rescue) type mission or sling a fish on it and go torpedo a ship  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif) )

Pyro,
     The Me410 would be very nice addition to the AH arena. (NOT a luft fan BUT would root for this plane)  The ONE big thing about AH that makes it so great is the uniqueness of the aircraft you have added. (La5, Macci 202/205, B26"personnal fave", and F4U1C).  The Me410 would add to the uniqueness.  SOme other planes that would add to the Uniquenss and greatness would be as follows;

1 (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif) P-63 in VVS markings
2 (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif) IL2 Stormavick

5 (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif) Brewster Buffalo

Pyro,

Startedd reading up on 410 and ME thinks that the 410 would great.  There were some very unique field conversions that would make the 410 very versital.  Would suggest we get the Me410A-2/U2..  or prefeably the Me410B(more powerful engines. 1900hp compared to 1300hp of the A2s)  But would take ether one.

Gorf out....again!

Here's another vote for the Me-323 Gigant.  Make it capable of hauling either 1 Panzer or two M16's.

Equip it with RATO (as I believe some were) for takeoff.  

Then do away with the 'tank spawning 25 miles from the hanger' concept.

Seriously guys, just imagine a flight of 323s lifting off from a field.  They fire their RATO's and engulf the field in smoke and flame, flying low beneath radar they make their way through the defences to the enemy HQ, where they disgorge their panzers and M16 anti-air units.

Gotta be the 323  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

The PV2 Harpoon "D"
An excellent 2 engined bomber with eight 50s in the nose, a standard twin 50 top turret, (not shown), a stinger 50 and was capable of carrying bombs, rockets and or a torpedo.
Many of the Buccaneers used to fly a restored PV2 to airshows for a number of years and talked with a number of pilots who loved them.
I have all specs and pictures if interested.

This great plane is mostly made of..wood and is used in several mission types.
It can be used for interdiction , but also as CAS or even as a night fighter.

It looks really mean with a nice camo and it has some great guns/cannons in the nose  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

I would like to see:

Any version of the P-51A/A-36....would look nice alongside the macci 202 and spit 5, and underrepresented in flight sims.

ANY russian meduim bomber

Late model P-39 or P-63, for the Reds

A useful German Medium/heavy bomber, to make an Axis Versus Allies area viable.

Any plane that can land in the water..PBY, H6K, H8K, etc

Lastly, If other late-war "almost-made-its" are added, then the P-51H should be added too.  Actually saw service in 1945 (but not in combat), top speed of 470 or so--would keep the pony competative.

Personally though, I don't care much for the 1945-1946 "superplanes"

Me 410 sounds fun plane!

- Cocpit is completely different than anything else we have seen this far

- Decent bomb load, 10 X 50 kg or 2 X 250 kg or 2 X 500 kg or even 2 X 1000 kg! Rocket tubes were also fitted inside the bomb bay. see picture below.

- Decent guns, 2 X 20 mm + 2 X 7,9 mm + 2 X remote controlled rear firing 13 mm. Ground attack version had 2 X 20 mm MG 151/20 and 2 X 30 mm Mk 103! Of course it had modification for high velocity 50 mm PaK, which would be ultimate tank killer!   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

- Performance not too shabby.

If HTC want's to model this rare plane, I'm all for it! It would give us fast 2 engined bomber killer and ground attack fighter and some ground kill capacity for "Lufwaffe only" players. It would be quite challenging to fly in air to air role but in groundwork it might be a very nice plane.

The MB5 must have stealth features It has been overlooked in both summary lists.

1943-44-45 british prototype. Was ignored by britian as it would have womped any spitfire and humiliated any non jet hawker product...
The brits might have put up with it outperforming their favorite supermarine product with ease, but they could not stomach the fact that the best looking prop fighter in history title would have been passed to the new kid..
An AC that would have ended the spitfire range controversy and the Typhoon handling controvery in one fell swoop was ignored by the RAF. I never understood why till I flew the spit IX in AH.

A7M Reppu was not a souped up Zero any more than the P-51 was a souped up P-40.  I was an entirely new aircraft.  Mitsubishi could have delivered the A7M in late '43 or early '44 if the IJN had followed Mitsubishi's advice and let them use the 2000+ horsepower Mitsubishi engine to begin with.  Instead they ordered them to use a less powerful engine from another company.  When that didn't deliver the expected performance, the IJN orded them to redesign it with the Mitsubishi engine.  By the time that version was done, tested and in production, there were only two months left and Japan was being bombed heavily.  After only a few production A7Ms USAAF B-29s flattened the A7M factory.  We didn't know that it was producing a fighter, that our own post war testing showed to be superior to the P-51 in all respects, until after the war.  We just knew that it was a Japanese factory.

One thing, why are people suggesting standard aircraft?  This thread was to request non-standard, not seen in sims aircraft.  I see people suggesting the P-47D, Fw190D-9, F6F Hellcat, Kate, Val, Me-262, B-25, Lancaster (They are doing this one, why request it here?), He-111, Ju-88, B-24, J2M3 Raiden, Hurricane, Tempest, P-40, F4F Wildcat, Dauntless, Devastator, Avenger and Mosquito.  While these are all great aircraft beyond any doubt, they are all standards of the industry and should not be included in this thread.  All of these should be ignore when the votes are tallied.

Please stop using this thread to request your standard, desired aircraft.

Mistel: A combination of a fighter (usually FW 190) with a bomber, the bomber has it's cockpit removed and a huge warhead was mounted there instead. The fighter was flying the bomber into the target.

Count me in for the Okha too  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)  Or is that Ohka?  Either way, I auger enough that flying it wouldn't hurt my RTB rate and smashing into stuff would actually damage/destroy the target.

Is the Mossie on the way already?  That, and a P-47 would be nice too.  Or the Komet.  Or something with missiles and afterburners and a nice radar.

One of the most important planes in WWII : the de Havilland Mosquito. One model, slight alterations, and you get all the variants, for instance : unarmed bomber BIV, fighter-bomber FBVI with its 4 20mm & 4 .303, BIX with it 4000 lbs bomb, and finally the FBXVIII Tsetse with its 57mm gun in place of the 4x20 mm for anti-shipping operations.

   The Mistel was succesfully used against the advancing Red Army, destroying vital bridges at rivers Oder and Neisse, and against the Mulberry temporary port (minor succes). The germans had planned to attack the Home fleet at his base (Scapa Flow?) and some power stations around Moskow and Gorky too. In AH we could use it against big, hard targets: HQ, hangars, bridges  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif), ships  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)...

The ME-163 would be a neat addition, but we would have to model the effects of highly volitile fuel and the possibility of the pilot getting "dissolved" mid-flight.

Pyro, how about a plane that did see service in WW2, yet is largely unknown?

Has mid-range perfomance when compared to the MA planeset (aka, turns nice, has nice E fighting abilities, nice armament) and should not be too hard to get info and pics on since there are a few in display in england (last time i read).

AND its not a late war aircraft! :)

WESTLAND WHIRLWIND

The Westland Whirlwind was the first single-seat, twin-engine fighter to service with the Royal Air Force. First flown in 1938 prior to the war, the design is not well known despite having seen successful combat action. Production delays meant that the type did not begin service until 1940. Its heavy four 20 mm cannon armament and long range compared to contemporary fighters made it attractive for long range escort and interdiction missions. However, its unique Peregrine engines caused some maintenance reliability headaches and its high landing speed also caused some operational accidents. Canadian pilots flew Whirlwind aircraft while attached to RAF squadrons. The Whirlwinds were withdrawn from operational service by the end of 1943.

Yes, let's have the Re.2005, 421 mph at 7,000 meters. Lower drag than the C.205. Like the P-47, the Re.2005 can trace its roots back to the Seversky P-35 (with the Re.2000 being little more than a improved copy of the P-35). Pilots who flew the Re.2005 stated that it was markedly more agile than the C.205, as well as considerably faster with the same horsepower. just over 30 were built.

Italian Air Force General Vittorio Minguzzi : "All the series 5 fighters (Macchi 205, Fiat G55 and Re 2005) were competitive with the best allied fighters, including the Mustang and Spitfire IX, each one being noted for a particular flight characteristic. The Re 2005 in particular, is the best in handling of those at high altitudes."

The Reggiane 2005 displayed excellent control in close dogfighting and, according to General Minguzzi, who flew both Re 2005 and Spitfire, was considered even better than the Spitfire in tight turns and handling.

 (http://home.att.net/~historyzone/re2005.JPG)

Below:
"The second Re 2005 prototype, MM495, with German-supplied DB 605 and VDM propellor. This aircraft had a top speed of 447 mph / 720 kph at 23,950 ft / 7,300 m."

1.850hp 14 cylinder radials (342 mph)
2 forward firing 20mm cannon
3 x flexible 12.7mm machine guns
5,000lb Bomb load

I think the plane would see a lot of use and is a step in the direction to allow eastern front events.  A "light" bomber also capable of defending itself (I reckon much like the A-20 in how used)

Plus it is neat looking.

P-55?? You mean the Curtiss XP-55 Ascender? Only four were made. Was a genuine pig!


Widewing your correct :).   The XP-55a was suppose to have a Continental XIV-1430-3 (2200 Hp) engine and do 507 MPH.    The two prototypes that were flown used the Allison V-1710-95 (1150 Hp) which caused the plane to fall well short of the expected top speed.   Like most aircraft (including the P51) the Allison engines just plain sucked.  It was the difference in the horse power that made the plane such a pig.   The idea was scrapped in favor of improving the P-51 and P-47 lines.    
Another interesting plane was the Curtis YP-60E, which was a remake of the P-40.   It used a R-2800-18, 2000 Hp engine, and had a top speed of 405 at 24,500 ft.   It also had a bubble canopy like the P-51, but again it was canceled because they didn't want to disrupt the P-40 line and because the engine used was needed for the new B-29 bomber.  
Because both of the planes above did not receive high priority they just became another fighter which never quite made it.

Side note:  The P-40 was the only fighter in mass production at the outbreak of the war.   It was to be a stop gap until newer fighters could be designed and built to replace it.   The basic P-40 was produced throughout the war even though it was no longer able to cope with the newer fighters it was facing.   Many radical improvements were made in the P-40, but all projects were either canceled or were rejected so not to interrupt the flow of the P-40 line.  
It's a shame in MHO that the P-40 was never to reached it's maximum potential because the government only wanted to keep the obsolete planes churning out.  Sometimes I wonder who was getting the kick backs on that program.

Not sure about plane, although a clipped wing Spit V would be nice - talk about turn rates! Would like to see some of the more unusual ordinance i.e. Grandslam bomb and Dambuster bomb (if there was a use for it) carried by Lancs, and the Hiball bouncing bomb carried by Mossies. Incendiaries and flares for pathfinding missions, would look good at night, especially with the updated lighting in next release.

The 109g-10 is damn near a K-4, only difference is K-4 has superior high alt performance and the g-10 is more maneuverable. So while i'd still like to see the K-4 in game, i think it could be a few notches down on the list.

As for the He-129, that's the HS129-b-3/wa.  The earlier hs-129's only had 20mm, few hs-129b-2's had 37mm's. Toward end of the war 37 became ineffective so they mounted the mighty 75 on that bird. Would be fun to fly but the bad thing is it's undefended, slow and has very sluggish controls.  It would be fighterfood/flakfood in aces high ;)

The Me410 never proved better then the 110, and is the reason the 110 stayed in production.    The He-219 prove it was extremely good at bomber killing.   First test in combat, one He-219 shot down 5 lancaster bombers.   If it's between the 110 and 219 I vote on the 219.

Post by: Casper on November 24, 2002, 11:09:33 PM
There are a number of historically significant aircraft that are typically excluded from sims:

Ju-52 (over 5,000 built, 3-engine transport, Germany)
Bristol Beaufighter (over 10,000 built, Great Britain)
Curtiss SB2C Helldiver (over 7,000 built, USA)
Petlyakov Pe-2 (over 11,000 built, USSR)

Of these, the Bristol Beaufighter should probably be next in line for addition into the Aces High plane set; followed by the Ju-52 and the He-111.  This would open the doors to many cool ETO scenarios.

Rather than new planes, I would like to see more attention paid to our current planes.

The F4U-1C has a problem when compared to the F4U-1D -- the 1C is heavier and loses energy faster (admittedly a subjective judgment.)

The P38 exhibits some strange behavior.  For example, you can take it to 30k, point its nose at the deck with full power on and you never get past about 525 mph.  Even worse, at 6,000 feet, you can press 'x' (level flight) and it gracefully comes right out of the dive.

The cockpit art is really dated.  The 190A5, arguably the most elegant fighter of WW2 looks very primitive (inside the cockpit.)

I too would enjoy new planes (Frank,Stuka), but I would be gratified if the current plane set were cleaned up -- artwork and performance.

Curly makes a good point, would be really nice to see Gentiles P51-B modeled to be a 51-B instead of cutting corners and using a p51-D frame, it's got the bomb load of a 51-B, its got the engine of a 51-B. but the tail section and wing of a 51-D, good ole Don may have really liked to have a 51-D but he didn't, so it would be nice to address all the bug reports and institute all the corrections to start making the game a little more truely historic, not a put down or hi-jack of the thread, this is a great game and a great job has been done, but maybe it's time for some clean up and then move on.

althought a bearcat would be great--- no perks please ,  I just like to see the planes of WWII Aces given the due respect, we do really owe these guys a lot, and Gentile was in on the early part of WWII and was a fine pilot, seems we could model his plane as it should be !!

Most underrepresented are still Japanese and Russian planes.

For one most NEEDED I would go with either Ki-43 or Ki-44. Make your pic Oscar or Tojo I dont care. But Im gonna go for the Tojo as it will be used more in the MA.

But when it comes to most WANTED I would go for the Beaufighter. I just love the Beaufighter.

So

Most NEED Ki-44

I'm surprised, since Pyro asked 10 years ago any aircraft, there aren't more wishes for F8F, F7F, DO 335, P-80, P-59, or Meteor or other "didn't quite make it" aircraft.

So +1 for all of those.

you'd really like to see?  I mean outside of the standard staples of WWII sims and regardless of whether it saw combat in WWII.  I think for me it would still be the Me 410.  I don't know why exactly, but the cockpit would be really cool and the gunnery system for the rear gunner would be interesting.

Or maybe even the DO 335, created by Claudius Dornier.    :D
