These are not the droids you're looking for..........   :D

You do not need a Mustang MkI
You do not need a 20mm Gun
You don't need it to kill the Hun.
Or to  ho-tard and ruin fun.

You Don't need it in Latewar
It's not needed to make the Pony Soar
You Don't need it in Midwar
Do not need it to score****

The Mustang mk I did not have 20mm cannons either.  2 .50s in the nose under the engine and 4 .50s in the wings. 

I think an Allison Mustang mk I would be a cool addition.  Would you still be interested without the cannons or is this another L33T CANUNz wish?

I'm thinking there are other AC that were built in larger numbers, and served a much larger role in the war that should be added first...

All below the top 5, and how many of those were post war?

Most B-29s were post-war. Definitely less than 2000 were war-time, but what number I can't recall. About half of those produced were after JV-day, and production ceased late in 1946.

This is a neat little plane that I think would be a great addition to the game, the Mustang Mk I. There were a little over 600 of them made I believe. Only question I have is how much action did they see, and did they perform well? if it is anything like the B or D model PLUS the 4 20mm then it should've done quite well  :devil

would give Hurri2Cs and typhoons a run for their money I think  :aok

Mustang Mk IA or P-51. I WANT!  :aok

Amazing how the 'experts' dont want this added because of HO fears and yet get HOed in everything already.

If I am one of your "experts" you have it wrong.  I don't want it yet because it was such a minor player compared to aircraft still missing from the planeset.

Doesn't fly well at 30K and lacks the fuselage fuel tank as well as DTs on many examples.  Not sure why it would appeal to Challenge based on that :)  And yes, it was such an insignificant player for real, it would have to be way down the list with other much more deserving aircraft making the game first.

Yes, your bias.

Trust me on this, if the P-51D were not in the game I'd be demanding it be added ASAP and I am sure Dan would as well.  Don't interpret our disinclination towards an aircraft that played almost no role in WWII as a bias against the Mustang.
