We need aircraft that were major participants in the war added.  Things that barely played a role can wait.  It isn't like the US planeset is lacking in capability.

B-17E, B-17F or B-24D I can get behind though.

How's it any different?  If you HO a 110, you should expect to die.  If you HO an A-26, you should expect to die.

I can understand your train of thought here, BUT: haven't the last 2 or 3 planes added been planes that were major participants?

Time for something fun! :rock

Gettin a little sick of filling the "gaps".

A-26  all the way!! :pray

The last plane added was the Mosquito Mk XVI, something that was not a "fill the gap" addition and much more of an "uberplane" addition.  The most recent announcement was the G4M1, which was a "fill the gap" announcement.  I believe the P-47M was the aircraft prior to the Mosquito Mk XVI, and that is another pure "uberplane" addition.  So of the last three, two were "uberplanes" and one was a "fill the gap" addition.

There are not terribly many "uberplanes" left to be added.  The A-26 is one of those.

Maybe its just me, but the Mosquito and the 47m were more of a modification of already existing airframes.

The 25 and the Brewster were "fill the gap" planes as well as the G4 and the P-39. (but who's countin?)

Its time for another "uber"plane.
