what about the UH-1 huey, like a third goon, or for base protection against GVs and paratroopers http://www.patriotspoint.org/exhibits/planes/uh1.html (http://www.patriotspoint.org/exhibits/planes/uh1.html)

:huh your joking right????
-
Not use in WW2. :lol
-
wasnt really a WW2 aircraft tho was it :aok
-
Not use in WW2. :lol
that doesnt mean it cant be in a WWII flight/combt simulator :D
-
that doesnt mean it cant be in a WWII flight/combt simulator :D
Actually...
-
Helicopters back then were still a fine-science. Even after WWII its main purpose was to transport injured soldiers. In other words, no thanks.

there is a problem with that, Slipknot.
UH-1 entered service in 1963.
WW2 ended in 1945.

That makes the F-4 Phantom eligible too :devil

That make the UH-1......carry the one.....about 20 years too late for WW2. I do like the UH-1 Huey though.....just throwing that out there.

the germans actually had a two rotor helicopter like a chinook.
transported mostly supplies and didnt have defense.
could be used for troops.

Focke was displaced by the National Socialists and he started a small company called Focke-Achgelis in which he devoted his full time to rotary wing aircraft. He conducted over 2,000 wind tunnel tests to prove his concept. He would go on to help design the first large helicopter, the Fa 223, that could lift 1,500 lbs. It had a cruise speed of 125 mph.1
-
..and add these.
M60 Patton Series Tank
T-62
It'll be like no other WWII Combat Sim in the world. :)

Could carry light cargo or 2 250 kg bombs. Its main action was in the alps but the allies bombed them faster than they could make them.
In my opinion this could had make it VERY far as a light infantry support aircraft if also fitted with manned Mg's and if the factory's went bombed faster than they made them.
The US also had a chopper but saw EXTREMELY little to no action, Forgot the name but it was so light armor that there was a rumor once that a spear like object took it 1 down.
It looks like a glider fuesel loge with large reorders (the prop)...
-
We could get Aces high turned into a big "what if" game of all these stupid ideas that come up on the wish list!!!!!!!! wooot !!!!!!!!!!!!!11111111111!!!!!!
But really the wish list would be a boring place to spend time if there wasn't post like this one....entertaining in a hit me in the head with a hammer kind of way

If you get the Phantom - I WANT A SADER! "GUNFIGHTERS BABY!" :aok

then we could just use the german chinook, i just think some rotor in AH would be fun
-
NO HELICOPTERS!

The UH-1 "Huey"s' main role was a a GUNSHIP but it saw many roles.And if this was a Vietnam Sim,the "Huey" would be and if not the first thing to be in it would be the 1st thing I(and probably many more)would ask for.

The U.S. also had a helicopter by Sikorsky that was used to transport supps to and from aircraft carriers or battleships to and from ships.

Actually transport. UH=Utility Helicopter. AH= Attack Helicopter. AH-1 "Cobra" main roll was GUNSHIP.
Most Huey "Gunships" were modified in the field like the Guntrucks, by GI's hanging guns off of them.

i was joking
Somehow I (and I'm sure a few others) doubt you were joking.

Why dont we just add the Fa 22 or the su 47 would make a nice touch to HTC :pray :pray

Well there is a rule about vehicles being used in combat in WW11 to be eligible. The only copter that would fall under this rule is this. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kayaba_Ka-1

Before the "Cobra" was introduced UH-1s' were used as gunships,and even after the cobra came into action they still used them as gunships.
-
And as I said before if this was "Aces High Vietnam" everyone be asking for it,if it wasn't in it from the start.But I don't see "Aces High Vietnam" in the window to the game.

Can we get apache's then? :D

I was referring to WWII helicopters only. I failed to remember the Huey was introduced in Vietnam. :)

:aok cobra = Huey on jenny Craig

what is he smoking?

The Apache is used today,it was not used in WW2
-
I want a Hi-24 Hind... it would end everyone's complaint about "more russian aircraft". :D
-
There was A Helicopter The germans had 5 of and all crashed and or strafed by the Allies, not sure what it was called tho... Look into it... And why do you want a huey to defend me away :D
-
heuys werent used in ww2
-
The Apache is used today,it was not used in WW2
And the HEUY was? :huh
:lol
-
And F-86 :aok
dont forget the F-35,which is still experimental!
-
The UH-1 HEUY is a vietnam aircraft :rofl
-
Or should i say an aircraft from vietnam era
-
The UH-1 HEUY is a vietnam aircraft :rofl
Never heard of it.

Kind of misleading here. Only the Hogs (UH-1C's and M's of which around 760 were built total) were used as "gunships". IIRC around 7,000 saw service "In Country." So to make your post about 10% of the entire fleet of UH-1's sound "like they were all gunships", is incorrect.

No, it's main role was a transport/utility helicoptor, hence the U in the designation. The UH-1C was the variant that was specifically developed as a gunship until the AH-1 was available for operational service. Basically, it was in interem solution until a better one (the AH-1) became available. Some models of the UH-1B were also converted into gunships.
ack-ack

How about the f4 or the rpg need something to shoot down those heils :rock :rock
-
OK guys let this die down, you guys cant use a simple yes or no, and i didn't know that it was used in Nam, obviously, my history was off, and you guys are off topic so yea, let it dye down
-
Does that mean we can have Canberra bombers?

Only if we "dye" it apparently :D

When are we getting the nuke they used the nuke in WW11. Can you imagine a base capture with a nuke. :devil

I think the troops would be halted by radiation before the base is captured.

I was playing a game called World In Conflict, and we have tactical nukes there... Theyre AWESOME!!! But they wouldn't fit with AH. Even in WiC, which was designed with the tactical nuke in mind (The game almost revolves around it) if you are looking at the patch of ground where that nuke hits, youre frame rate goes to NOTHING. And while its really not that upsetting to the game overall (Radiation affects your tanks and infantry as well, so rather than opening up a CP to be captured, you really are just taking it off the map. Plus, they require a lot of points to be stored, for a last-ditch effort.) even in a game for them, they do kinda screw things up a bit. Fortunately, almost no one ever uses them.
But, just a little bit of a teaser:

(http://i217.photobucket.com/albums/cc74/Serene_One/World%20In%20Conflict/QuinticentialShot.jpg)
I tried to break down the stages of a nuke in game, so you could see what AH would have to develope, but this is the best I could do with that FR:

So, much more preferable arr the slightly more conventional weapons, such as napalm:

This is not a hijack, just an insight into how some other games that DO have nukes work. While the Nuke may be uber, the absolute BEST tactical aid (As theyre called) Is just a well timed airstrike and a coordinated tank assault. Wait, AH has airplanes... and tanks... so why the **** do we need a nuke?

good point

I saw that game before and SOOOOOOOOOOO want it!!!!!!!

It came with a free 14-day free trial disk to give to friends... you want it?

Even if we do get the nuke dont we need nuke winter or whatever it called after you drop it?

Hmm... this just in!!! After having the UH-1 Heuy had entered service in AH, HTC is next putting in the F-22 and the Super Cobra. Good Try but the closest thing your going to get to a helicopter in Aces High is hitlers dragonfly and that was only used for strictly suppiles. And HTC is never gonna put this reckage in the game unless, of course, if they mounted a 20mm minigun under it with 12 hellfire missiles on the wings......oh wait thats the modern day Apache!!
Heres a look at the "Hitlers Dragon" i was refering to that was actually used in the war!

instead of helicopters,which came into their own POST WAR how about the gyroplane? It did have a practical use,inso far as it helped calibrate the British radar,thus playing a pivotal role in halting the german advance

Yeah,i know,what would it do in the game? what would it add?
probably nothing,but its got a much better chance than any heli

didnt napalm and FAEB's come before the nuke?
-

I don't think FAEB did, (IIRC Thermobaric muntions, etc. are a more modern thing) but I know napalm did. In fact, the only time TRUE napalm was used IIRC was in WWII. Everything since then has been a different chemical mixture than 'napalm', the name just stuck.
-
Didnt they use Napalm in Japan and the Phillies? not sure
-

IIRC, (And this may be VERY flawed, im trying to pull memories from years ago, when I dont even remember this morning...) Napalm was originally used in flame-throwers and as incendiaries in BUFFs, so yes, the Phillipines and Japan would have felt the burn.
