Not only Kweassa, Red cross or Hinomaru are national symbol,Swastika is not the correct national symbol is the hackencreuz.

That's why the display of the Swastika is prohibited when some symbol as weird are autorized (I'm speaking of the law of in my country)

The Hakenkreuz is the Swastika. I'm not sure if that's what you meant.

Well, the "meatball" on the Japanese planes should be banned too. The attrition rate in their POW camps was 40% compared to the German POW camps which was around 3%. What does that tell you?

The Swastika is legally outlawed in some countries for whatever reason they deemed appropriate. It's not debateable.

If you don't like the "Red" Star, then go rally in Russia to have it leagally banned. If you don't like the Japanese "meatball", then go to Japan and have it legally banned.

Don't start applying your own moral standards or some stupid-prettythanged child logic to try and ban them from Aces High, or justify why the Swastika should be displayed.

If a symbol is legally banned within a country or countries, I am sure the HTC would oblige and not use them.

The swastika is actually a pretty good looking sign, very symmetric and all :)

Also it's a very old sign, used 3000 years ago, I've known what it meant but forgot and too lazy too google...
but here's a pic which proves it's been used otherwise:


I really don't care if I'd fly a plane with or without a swastika on it, I mean...that's realism isn't it? If we'd take it that serious we might as well bann the german planes :rolleyes:

Ya know, I used to think that it would be real nice to have the swazzie on my favorite rides too until I thought about it...

It's alright to ask why, but my reasoning has to do about Hitler and what it represents.  Those of the jewish faith might consider it EXTREMELY rude to have the symbol that hid the murder of millions during WWII on LW aircraft, as a proud symbol of their alliance.

The Swastika today is still a symbol of hatred toward Jews.  Besides, I don't want to dirty up the tails of my favorite Luftwaffe rides.
