This maybe an unpopular idea..but
perhaps there should be concentration on "basic" and different a/c types, rather
than diluting the game with sub variants
and exotic examples of the presently
modelled aircraft.
Sure maybe a Bf109K-14 or a P-47M would be nice..but the constant desire for powerful final versions detract from a/c which could "flesh" out the game more. ie:
French Curtis Hawks
Bf-110, He-111, He-117, P-40,
Hs-129, A-20, Beaufighter, Ju-87, Mosquito, G3M-Nell, Il-2, I-16 Rata, Me-410
Ki-45 Nick, Halifax, Wellington..
any number of Japanese Army, USN, Soviet airforce aircraft..
Even if the 262 is introduced, why not add the Arado 234B, Meteor to counter it
It may be easier to adapt, but is it better?
