any word on if this was OK. Would like to see it in in game since it would mean a new Navy AC the squad can fly.

It would be nice if we could get the gun blisters on the glass nose like all the VMB-611 B-25D's



BTW Stoney some of the VMB-611 aircraft were very splotchy, this was the one I was working on for a skin (VMB-611 MB3). I suspect that the splotchyness <sp> was only temporary as most photo's show it being more even.



All of VMB-611's B-25D's were from the last production block they had some pretty interesting features;

  • right and left waist guns, like the B-25J
  • 6 fixed forward firing .50's
  • single .50 in the tail
  • 8 5" HVAR zero length rocket rails
  • APS-3 search radar (VMB-611 & VMB-612 were to be primarily night interdiction squadrons, but due to a lack of targets VMB-611 switched back to day attack)
HTC Please show the blue planes some love!

Apparently, I'm just grumpy.  Good pics as always...   :aok
