Damn Ghostrider! This bogey is all over me!!

I work way too hard to get my B-17 to alt!

Swager,
Is this a troll? Yak-9, unwanted? By whom?
1. Which variant? -9T, -9D, -9M, or -9U? And these are only the major ones.

No way! Yak-9 is a staple. Just wait until you see the Yak-9U!

It is too simillar to a B-17. Spend the time and money on a common, yet never seen before plane instead (Russian ones come to mind).

Any plane Fishu likes, leave it out. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
Any plane Fishu does'nt like, put it in. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Yes Leonid, this was a huge troll! (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
I know how much you love Russian aircraft. I figured once you read this you would have a reply.
Hope no hard feelings. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
Actually I like the YAK-9! In fact, I like all WWII aircraft, so any HTC puts in the game is fine with me.

Gotta be the A-26 (or was it the F-26?) Invader. You wanta see a porked game, just put that baby in. Good bomb load, too fast to catch, manuevers like a fighter, and, if they're stupid enough to put the gun nose in it, kills anything unfortunate enough to find itself at 12 o'clock.
Toss in the 4x50 turret guns, and kiss your suspension of disbelief goodbye. You'll never see another type of medium buff in the arena once the A-26 shows up (at least not without an RPS you won't).
B-26, A-20, He-111, all good choices. A-26? Just say no.

The A26 is the only ground pounder worth having...only plane that can haul em in and fight out by itself. I'm sure it's miss modeled in AW but is a blast to dogfight. In AH with those 14 .50's it would be the king of HO's...course if you add the autosych for the top turret it would be 16 .50's (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
-
Same here Swager. Gimme ANY model of the Yak-9 and I will fly it happily.

Minotaur: then you wouldn't get much planes.. LOL
I happen to like P-38, at least in WB, but when I said I woulnd't mind to have it in AH, I was thinking game balance in AH generally.. (do we want some second US civil war simulation? :P)
Note; I fly many planes, like many planes.
-
I feel that one criteria for excluding AC would be low production numbers- in other words if only 200 or so were built they were not really used in WW2 to any extent. Case in point-Heinkel 100D. Only 25 were built mostly for propaganda purposes and those that flew were used to "guard" the Heinkel factory. Next the DO 335- yes it has the appearence of being a hot plane but only 37 were ever built and there is no record of actual combat. I would also leave the jets out-I think they would only mess up the game.

Uh, BBGunn - in that case we better toss the C.205 and N1K2-J out the window right now... and get the Il-2 in here pronto!
-
BBGun: DUH! that means we never get planes with FAF markings, because there were so rare number of each type and they were not potential for the war..
hmm.. do i miss some point?

here is my entry to the least wanted plane in Aces High...
(http://www.unsere-luftwaffe.de/archiv/projekte/bv142.jpg)
"Yak-9U"....sounds like some kind of insult (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

What is that mutant floo.. :P
It has dorniers tail with weird raised stabilizers and blenheim IVs nose, Fw200's cockpit and middle fuselage and wings..
but it flies...
-
Least wanted plane?
Anything with SuperMarine up front and a roman numeral higher than V.
-
"Yak-9U"....sounds like some kind of insult
Especially Yak-9UT with 37mm spinner cannon and 2x20mm cowl cannons (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
-
aper,
Don't forget - "...and flies like Yak-3."

Sounds Yummy Leonid (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)
I loved the Yak-3 in WB's, just hated its very anemic armament package.

Yaks are cool, Good trainer, base defense, and just fun to hurry up and go nowhere in!
