Sandwich, as your commander I order you to shut the f**k up about ord perking. Up to but not including the 3 perks for bombadier version, I agree with you.

The bombadier version would be less dangerous then the B-26 we have now.

I dont like perking.

I would much rather have the A-26 and all its options unperked but the plane is way too dangerous and its perfromance is way too good for it to be free to everybody.

I dont want it perked at 100 though. That prospect gives me the shivers.

Like I said, the bomber version is unperked (unless it two carried the gun pods in the wings). Past that, its a bomber dude. Average SA will usually keep you safe from it. Most fighters can just motor away and outrun it.

So hitech, is there any real reason we can't get the A-26?

my only guess is because most people think that another fiter plane is more needed like the p39 which is seldom used.

Perhaps the plane set we have may need some balancing, and maybe  :praythe A 26 is still in the works....

Still think this would be a great addition nonetheless.   :cheers:

Not that much. Its still a bomber and neither carries the ords of a heavy bomber or is as armed as a heavy bomber. It also wont be formation enabled.

 6 fifty nose should be perked at 7, 8 fifty at 15 and bomadier at 3. Each gun pod should be an extra 2 perks and external ords should be 10 perks each.

Really? It will be 50 to 70 mph faster then the B-26 and carry an additional 2,000 lbs of ords. Here, take a look at its maneuverability and zoom http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5iayVNS20rc

So Mossie speed, with near P-38 maneuverability, and a 6,000lb bombload, and B-26 level defensive gunnery?

Perk it at 10 and you might as we;; call the game A-26 High.

Well then.

30 is my final Offer for 6 gun nose!
40 for 8.

Did it have counter rotating props?

100 perks would definitely be worth it.


FINALLY we would have something worthwhile and effective to spend our bomber perks on!!!

Many of us know that the US planeset is very full while others have huge gaps and need attention, thus we don't think the A-26 is a good idea at this time.
