Title: My own plane suggestion:
Post by: J_A_B on May 01, 2002, 11:16:24 PM
Since a lot of people are suggesting airplanes, I figured I'd join the bandwagon and suggest one myself.

Ju-52

Right now we have all of 1 transport in AH, and particularly in the CT it would be niuce to have an axis transport available.  The Ju-52 would fit this role, at least in Euro/Med settings.

also worth considering the SM79 italian bomber/transport.

not only that it even looks like the ju52 with 3 engines (one in nose).With 2 paintschemes (1 italian and one luftwaffe) it would please everyone looking for an axis transport and be a good italian bomber/torpedo bomber to boot!

it was in fact the best italian bomber of WW2 and is rated amonst the best torpedo bombers of the war and it flew recon and transport roles.

if not the SM81 is also worth a look.Its no better than the ju52 but at least it adds to italian aircraft rather than LW again and in Lw colours it looks exactly like a ju52 anyhow :)


THEN theres the SM82 heavy bomber/transport

engines: 3 x 950hp alfa romeo 128 RC21's
speed: 230m[h ceiling 19,685ft
armement: 1x12.7mm and 4x7.7mm mgs plus 8,818lbs of bombs or troop transport of 40!!! troops and equiptment.

used also by LW
