Post by: CarlosL on April 30, 2002, 06:59:39 PM
How many of you guys here would like to see a stuka in this great game?  Post here if you want one.  Havn't seen any posts asking this, thought I'd post.

I would rather see more Italian, Russian and Japanes planes first.

Stuka would be good, AH does need a few more dive-bombers, but brady is right also,

Stuka would (unfortunately) be a compleatly useless plane in AH.  As it is we have american "fighters" that carry an absurdly heavy bombload (when compared to bombers and attackers).

Stuka would be too slow with too little punch

In AW, squads of normally K/D obsessed mustang drivers were known to take up the Stuka on large raids, just because it was a stupid and funny thing to do.  And the siren noise was cool.

I ran into one of those raids once and had one of the most memorable times in my AW career.  Me versus about 20 Stukas  :)




As for the question of adding the Stuka--ONLY if it comes with a dive siren!

Would rather have a Japanese dive bomber.  We have enough LW planes.

Stuka
Val
Dauntless


I want two versions of Stuka though...

Early War D variant and 37mm Panzer Cracker G variant.

Oh yes, I want one.

What Jab said.

As for MA usage, may be some way could be found to enhance dive bomber accuracy (improved sights or sighting mechanisms, perhaps?) to reflect the real life results of the divebombers?

Yes.
Dive-bomber and tank-killer versions.

Post by: funkedup on May 01, 2002, 12:21:57 PM
It would be useful for scenarios.
Title: Stuka Poll
Post by: minus on May 01, 2002, 12:56:28 PM
if !  precision on bomb run are more  realistic   , especialy in dive bombing when AH planes can drop eggs even inverted , or without breaking apart propeler


in real life   45 degre bomb runs  was terible inprecise that why special dive bombers was developed and only  special  adapted or developed planes was able  90 degre dive bomb run

then we will need a Stuka to take out some hard targets

stuka is a must have......and like J_A_B said.....ONLY if the sirens are modeled......just think...sitting in your GV....then hear this screaming screeching sound......look up to see a hellish plane bank away as the bombs fall
Title: Stuka Poll
Post by: CarlosL on May 01, 2002, 02:57:50 PM
Seems like a lot of ppl are interested.  Seeing more diffrent aircrafts from toher countries would be a great thing Brady but I just dont see how you can have WWII w/o a stuka ;).  Anyways its great that we are getting new aircrafts and a stuka with siren sounds would indeed be GREAT. BTW Saturday I will be going to an airshow I will take pics for you guys, theres suppose to be a B-26 fly by!  take care.

I'd rather see transports first, notably the Gigant.

Stuka (and its wing cannons) would be great for GV busting :) ... especially if T-34's were introduced.
Title: Stuka Poll
Post by: Hortlund on May 02, 2002, 09:43:32 AM
The Stuka is a must. It will see use in the MA, even though it will have a hard time indeed surviving. But it is almost essential to a number of scenarios. If we get the Stuka, can anyone say Kursk scenario? Or BoB? Or Crete? Or convoy battles? You name it, the Stuka has a definite place in AH.

Stuka is nice I think I'd like to see it but what aces high really really needs is Biplanes!!! they would be usefull (especially in lowlevel turn fights) and look really neat :)

Or how about when normally K/D obsessed mustang drivers would get into Stuka vs. Stuka duels. ;)

Shouldn't that be:

I want to ride it when I puke-a

A Stuka is like the Dauntless and Val - too slow for everyday MA use but critical for historical re-enactments (and comedic value).  Would I fly a Stuka?  Only if I didn't have much other choice.

The Ju-87(G?) Anti-Tank model would only be as useless as the Hurri2d Granted that's pretty useless, but at least there's a precident.  Then again, I'm hoping for a Dauntless and Val too lol.

i would agree with the stuka but i wouldnt mind seeing some biwingers in AH either.

S!

Yes, Stuka is absolute nessesity for Scenarios.
Title: Stuka Poll
Post by: Tumor on May 03, 2002, 02:43:17 AM
YES!!  Bring the Stuka.  I flew it lots in AW, as I would in AH if (when) it's introduced.  Furballers need not read on: To say it would be useless is hogwash.  If you have a little patience and get it to a decent altitude you CAN fight that aircraft (just like you can the IL-2) with success.

Definitely need the Stuka for scenarios.

The G-1 version with the twin AT guns would be nice too.

stuka doesnt have enough punch? it carries more weight in bombs than the b26!!!

I for one will use it in AH but it will be in need of escorts is all

for LW missions it would be cool


Id even like to see a henschel 123 biplane in AH.its WW2 and saw action and even though slow and weak it would provide a great deal of fun against spits/niks and zeros etc.

it would turn inside em easily :)

just couldnt hurt em much ;)

STUKA -------- Sturzkampfbomber are always welcome
Bring the JU87 Aces High we could need it with a loadout of 1800kg =(3600 lbs?)

Post by: CarlosL on May 03, 2002, 02:27:33 PM
Guess a lot of you would like the stuka in the game.  So how about AH staff?  Me personally I just love the way it looks, like a hawk with those fixed gear preying down on targets!

Post by: udet on May 03, 2002, 02:46:54 PM
screw the stuka. if u want antitank weapons the hurri2d is much better overall, and if you want divebombing they should bring the HELLDIVER.

I'd like to see it - we need it for the BoB and East Front Planesets anyway. We would need variants B, D, and G
