I believe they are well past the 50% mark on bringing aircraft up to the standards of the Ki-84 and B-24J.

Lol have you seen the interior of a b24? So good.

Lol have you seen the interior of a b24? So good.
have you seen the exterior? IMO it needs a rework...
-
P-40 is up there too, with the Hurri, Lanc, B-26, Boston, whatever the other version of that is, and several others.

It was one of the first to be redone (2nd gen).
We need to at least bring all the 1st gen models to 3rd first.
-
B-24, Ki-84 and T-34/76 were the first AH2 standard models. All three of them were new units added in AH v2.00, and yes, the Ki-84 and B-24 are showing their age. Frankly, I think the canopy framing on the old AH1 A6Ms was better than it is on the Ki-84.
-
Ki-84 frame looks like it was painted on, lol.

yes the p40 needs a rework badly

oh yeah...forgot about the TBM. that would be nice.
i think the two planes that should be updated first of all are the Lanc, and the B-26. I know that most of the fighters/light/medium bombers are looking pretty decent right now. yay for that! so lets see some buffs get updated, maybe?
-
I'd like to see the Lanc with the british .303 turrets instead of the US .50cal turrets, when remodeled.
P.S. Nothing wrong with the B-24 model. It's what I consider 3rd Generation of graphics detail. Naturally the 3rd generation has improved since then, but it's still a large step above previous models.
-
all the YAKS plus plz add the the lagg's and yak 3

ohhh those wooden laggs would be delicious to shoot down!

They originally had the .303s and were changed because they were useless. You trying to get me killed Krusty? :neener:

what have you been smoking? the B-24 is really starting to show some wrinkles and IMO it needs a re-working. the interior looks fine but on the outside its like an old fry left under the fridge...

What about the MiGs?

The Lancaster's tail turret never carried a quad of .303s. It had two .50s from the moment it was added when v1.04 was released.
-
Now I'm not a fan of the Lanc one bit BUT it is one of the most flown if not the most flown bomber in the game so I agree Lanc needs to have a face lift.
-
i think you should be allowed to choose what tail turret configuration before you sortie.
i found this on wiki
Armament
Defensive
While eight .303 in (7.7 mm) machine guns were the most common Lancaster armament, twin .50 in (12.7 mm) turrets were later available in both the tail and dorsal positions. A Nash & Thomson FN-64 periscope-sighted twin .303 in machine gun ventral turret was fitted to early aircraft, but fitting was soon discontinued and the turret often removed as it was hard to sight, especially at night. (Similar problems afflicted the ventral turret in the North American B-25C and other bombers).
When the threat of attacks from below began to be appreciated in the winter of 1943/1944, modifications were made, including downward observation blisters mounted behind the bomb aimer's blister[8] and official[9] and unofficial mounts for .50 in (12.7 mm) machine guns or even 20 mm cannon, firing through ventral holes of various designs. The fitting of these guns was hampered as the same ventral position was used for mounting the H2S blister.

i had heard of the ventral gun configuration in the early versions, and i knew that it was taken out, but i didnt know anyof the other stuff. :aok good job...but is wikipedia really a trusted source? :headscratch:

i alos got a couple books of the lanc in serivce with the RCAF during WW2 with records of the gun systems and if you go on you tube and find the colored video of the only RAF bomber raid video youll see it
and i found this on youtube as well
