im requesting some revisions on naval planes. such as the TBM showing up al long range as an f4f4, or an f6f (i forget which one it looked more like). from war records, japaneze pilots would pull up behind the TBM thinking it was a defenseless fighter, then the stinger and turret would mow em down. just a thought
and also do you think we could have a cruiser launched bi-plane. like a swordfish (i believe), this class of cruiser was equiped with them, but i have not found sufficient pictures to illustrate it. these planes could be launched as long as the cruiser was still up. and would be weak, but would serve some purpose (like if loaded with torps)
and can we have this skin for the me-109

Toadkill,
In his autobiograpy, Saburo Sakai said he was fooled teh first time he saw a formation -- and paid for it with his eye, and almost his life.
That doiesnt mean the mistake continued to happen throughout the war, and doesnt mean anyone else would have been fooled. The 2 planes are different enough that once pilots knew the bomber models were out there, it was pretty unlikely the mistake would be made again.
