Heya, Stream, I apologize that we kinda hijack the thread and decide to make a new one.

Yeah as long as you add the P-40F too

Yeah, The Curtiss P-40F did see the action over MTO and I believe they have arrived in North Africa in Janurary 19, 1943 during Operation Torch.

We don't have P-40F in Aces High II, sorry.

I know just wishfull thinking.  The 325th flew it out of Casablanca in 43, then out of Tunisa 43.  I don't think they flew the P-40E, but it would be nice to have that Merlin engine in the P-40.

I really don't think 325th FG flew P-40E in Combat, but 325th FG did flew P-40E for training for takeoff and land in aircraft carrier in sometime late 1942(I think).

Sure, It would be nice to have Merlin Engine in P-40F :)

I did some research and they did fly the E in training, but flew the F off the U.S.S. Ranger into North Africa.   I used to have footage of that and will be getting it again.
