Afk for a year or so.  The name of a gun turret in game.  Falanx, huh? :banana:
Apparently I'm in the 20th FG 'Loco Busters', or so the legend goes.

P-47M 130 produced, squadron strength  and was in combat..
Ta-152  90-93 produced, squadron strength and was in combat.

Please explain why the M should not be done?

Amen I say to you.

Look at the US planeset and then look at other nation's planesets.

And 1/3rd of those U.S. planes are bombers and a cargo plane. *yawn* All of which, if they were removed from the game tomorrow, I would barely notice. Fighters my man, lets stick to planes actually worth caring about. :devil

The plane sets you will call limited, Russian and Japanese, yes they may be numerically smaller but these numbers include many of the best-modeled planes for typical MA conditions. Some of the latest, rarest, and/or highest-performance variants built, but the USAAF is stuck with 1944-eque performance for its P-51Ds and P-47D-40s

And the IJA is stuck with a lower powered Ki-84-Ia instead of a Ki-84-Ib with a bit more power and better guns.

There are also many other missing aircraft from the Japanese, Russian, Italian, German and British sets.

I agree that some tweaks to the Ki-84 wouldn't hurt....

Yeah I notice that half the German Luftwaffe is composed of 109s and another quarter of it is composed of 190s. Whats your point?

Why do you want a plane that failed?

The M saw very little action and was eventually terminated.  The other M prototype became the first N prototype....


The 56th Fighter Group had the P47M in operational combat. They were the only unit that the P47M saw action in the war. The unit loved them. The manufacture lighten up on the airframe and had a more powerful engine. And they did see escort, dogfighting ...etc with the 56th FG.

Need to do some more searching. Read a book wiki is not always right.

It's a US made game with US servers and US offices which has a lot of US planes because that is what US paying customers (who are the majority) want.

Bring on the M! The sooner the better!

And US warbirds data is probably a lot more accessible.. Nonetheless the game is better off having relatively balanced representation.
