Might be post-war. When looking for foreign planes I found a lot of chinese P-38s and other planes, but all were handed over AFTER the war was over (surplus).

Im downloading the Hires pack for this version, but it will take 6hours. Can someone post the "B25H1" file?



Krusty I need to do more research but if it is post war Iv found another metal B25H.


B-25H-10
Unit: 1st Air Commando Group, USAAF
Serial: 43-4935
Chittagong airfield, January 1945. Natural metal with Olive Drab panel.

Can you post the file for the B25H so I can start working on it while the HiRes pack downloads?

Here you go, TK.

I'd also suggest the second one, those stripes are indeed very interesting and would quite a rewarding challenge, I expect.

It's not unheard of. Early Allison-powered mustangs had them. Many P-47s in the PTO had them. Even some P-51Ds (and/or later marks??) had similar stripes.

Not too much of a stretch to see them on a B-25. Only, most of the ones I've seen are white (over OD) or black (over NMF). Blue is a bit odd, and may be an interpretation or artist error.

Those stripes are a theater marking for the 1st Air Commando Group, CBI.

Fencer, were they really blue?
Title: B-25H 'Hapie'
Post by: Fencer51 on January 08, 2008, 04:30:48 PM
They were white for the OD planes and various colors for other planes depending on finishes.  I do not think that "blue" for a natual finish B-25 would be that out of the range of probability.

This one is only a partial image.
Fortunately the picture quality is so good you can read the serial number on the side of the fuselage.
#43-4327


42nd B/G.
Have not figured out what squadron yet?
Quite possibly it was a 42nd Bomb Group aircraft only with no squadron affiliation due to the pilot?

(http://i1002.photobucket.com/albums/af142/barneybolac/Mitchell%20B-25H/light%20horse_zpsoe7cidoq.jpg) (http://s1002.photobucket.com/user/barneybolac/media/Mitchell%20B-25H/light%20horse_zpsoe7cidoq.jpg.html)

The aircraft is named after the commanding officer of the 49th Bomb group who also flew 48 missions & was a Penn State & Army football star back in the 1920's.

http://www.gopsusports.com/sports/m-footbl/mtt/wilson_harry00.html

http://www.footballfoundation.org/Programs/CollegeFootballHallofFame/SearchDetail.aspx?id=20044

The aircraft is most likely OD/NG & the football uniform I am not sure if it would be in Army colours or Penn State's?
This group kept their B-25s fairly simple until the Late B-25J's  showed up. So I believe based off the photos I have found it would only have yellow tail numbers for this time frame.

We already have one from this squadron in game.
There is a couple of variations though that maybe of interest. For some reason they decided to take the paint off the nose on a number of them. Thought this might interest someone on that point. Also it looks like the were shipped with large tail numbers that at some point were changed over to a panel with a smaller number.

VMB-613.

Yes Greebo did an excellent job with that one I gave him  :headscratch:
Well for that matter with everything in game he has done.

That reminds me I found a second photo of that plane very rough image that looks to have had a few changes from the original one.

Don't know if it is text or bombing mission markers under the cockpit?

Most of these B-25H prospects AKAK I have posted are skins Greebo was not interested in because they are to similar to others he has done before. Since he is the only person who has done any since the default that Fester did. I put the rest of these on the forums in case somebody else may want to do one.
Plus since only two nations used the B-25H in WWII a few more CACW skins wont hurt since all else will be American.

12th B/G 81st B/S.


"Texas Gal"

This particular aircraft people have been searching for a long while for it's tactical number. The only known photos have been of the nose art. I have found two images and its #16. One of the images shows a serial number however its not legible. Also found a second photo of the right hand side of the aircraft and it has no serial number.

After looking at a number of photos the 12th bomb group they did away with the serial numbers at some point. Why? Have no idea. That aside it therefor makes this aircraft a candidate for a skin.

I do have a profile for #10 before the nose job.
Plus a classic case of don't trust profiles.
Tail number is not a match to the photo.

My best guess is #43-4175.

After looking at the first photo some more I can read 4 of the 6 tail numbers.

43-43??

So based off of this I would stay with the profile tail numbers unless I can find something else confirming otherwise.

"Sunny Side Special"
This is a photo I found on EBAY. It has a few unusual things about it. The serial number is a Chinese designation that also supports why no USA roundels anymore. Also the antennas on the underside of the aircraft are very unusually placed. Possibly a special arrangement for an armed aircraft that had a radio purpose while in mission?

This aircraft is most likely a 1st Bomb Group CACW B-25H.
Outside chance it is a 21st Recon squadron who also used B-25's.
