Yep, the more Eastern Front scenarios the better :aok

Agreed, VVS is not represented very well. Adding ANYTHING VVS is a big plus to scenario's/FSO's/snapshots... etc

The LaGG-3 is basically the original La5/7. It had an inline engine.
With the La-5 two of the designers left (thus the lack of the GG), and the inline engine was swapped for a radial. In the La5FN we have further improvements were made, including a cutting down of the tail section, which finally brought the La5 up to par with contemporary Luftwaffe fighters.
Both the LaGG and the MiG were dogs, but they were very sexy aircraft.

I don't think any of them did. The 9D had huge wing tanks, though.

I don't see the need to respond like you have and maybe you are the person you saying he is, by your responce, :uhoh or is it deeper than that, maybe you think your opinion is the only one that counts. :rofl
I am just sick of seeing people complain about the N1K2-J getting a very deserved facelift because they think it is beneath them.  The N1K2-J routinely the #3 or #4 aircraft in the game and it was literally one of the very oldest polygons in the game, introduced in the beta for AH1.  It needed to be updated and people whining about it not being worthy because it is "easymode" or "for n00bs" such are being elitist.

Really? Any other planes carry them at all?

Don't think so, only aircraft that the VVS used that could compliment DT's are lend-lease AC as far as I know.

Why you trying to hijack the thread dude?    We're not talking about me being better then you Mr. LastCentury registration date.  We're talking about new planes that would want to be seen by who?  The masses! A great bunch of planes I might add.
What does being easy or hard to fly have to do with getting updated graphics?  Nothing.
You're just an elitist jerk.

I will tell you this though... My humor about Little N1kky was meant jokingly, as I love that plane, but also to purposely upset you cupcake!

Oh yeah, and what does being easy or hard to fly or updated graphics have to do with the content of this thread?  For such a long timer, you sure know how to hijack!

None they extended the internal tanks, long range yaks were given classification D or DD  :D

Apparently the Yak-9DD had a longer range then the Pony.
