Title: ViVa La France, Lets Do the French, Comon now it will be great fun!
Post by: brady on August 28, 2002, 07:55:30 PM

The French, Their are some realy great planes from France that would add much to the plane set, some good turners, well armed and competive speed wise withen their time frame, now they would be slow by the 44/45 MA standard but speed is not everything. For the CT and the CM staff these planes would add much in the way of possable set up's/scenarios. Another Pluss is that after the fall of France all their top planes went on to see service not only with Vichy France fighting the Allies( in limited engagemnts), but with the Axis forces as well, Italy and Germany and other Axis minours used these planes in Russia and The Med.

 Whats your favorate French Plane?

Didn't the French get some P-63's?   Those could compete in the MA.

I like this one because it carries my first name.
Not too bad either in the bomb load (1,500 Kg not lbs) and has the good old dorsal 20mm gun. (1 mg on the front, 1 mg on ventral which is retractable).

A D520 of course and a Normandie Niemen Yak should be enought for a start.:D

A French P47? ... nah.

D520 would be a good choice.  Another would be the French version of the Curtis Hawk, though I think the D520 would be more popular choice.
