I have been hoping HTC would add this variant. :D Look at the engine nacelles guys. There are six exhaust stubs on each side of the engine nacelle. The nacelles appear to be more elongated than the current Mossie we have in game. The Mossie Mk VI in game has five exhaust stubs on each side. If I am certain, this new Mossie variant will have excellent top speed over 15K. But I could be wrong.

If it is what I think this Mossie is, itll likely be a perked ride in Mid War, as we would see this bomber flying high in the clouds, flying fast enough that most interceptors will struggle mightly in gunning it down.

Karnak please shed us some more light!

The damn thing is as ugly as ever, but it will be nice to have a bombsight. I might actually fly it now.


Always nice to see what those lovable madmen at HTC have cooked up.

A high speed perked bomber that isnt a jet would be a fine addition. Considering how many perked bombers we have. Personally I would have liked to have seen the P61 as a perked ride
Perked or not. I see this plane being used. Probobly not by me. But I see it being used.

Whats going to be funny to watch is people running away from it if it gets on anyone's 6 LOL

Quick pull from Wikipedia (bad source of information).

Quote
The B.Mk. XVI had a maximum speed of 408 mph (656 km/h), a cruising speed of 245 mph (394 km/h), ceiling of 37,000 ft (11,280 m), a range of 1,485 nm (2,390 km), and a climb rate of 2,800 feet per minute (853 m). The type could carry 4,000 lb (1,810 kg) of bombs.

really?  we needed another mossie??  really???   i don't see how this adds more than say, a beaufighter, or a 111, or a G4M for that matter.   i know, i know, it has it's place in history, but we already have a mosquito.     my $0.02.   flame away brit lovers

One is a pure bomber, the other is a fighter-bomber.  Very different missions.  The Mosquito was a very versatile plane.  This is a very good addition.   I'm glad to see it.

I honestly would rather see more variants come out which are faster to make, than new airframes which take a helluva longer time, with 2-3 exceptions (P-63, He-111, Hs-129)

Are you kidding? Look at it. It doesn't have the graceful look of a zero, the sleek, fast look of a P-51, or even the deadly beauty of a 190.
