while the IAR 80a went against whatever flying junk the russians could put up (and pilot skill wise).

Even with the low quality of Soviet pilots and equipment at the time, Romanian fighter units with the IAR 80 really didn't make that much of an impact compared to their German counter parts.

Frankly even if the IAR 80c gets added, it was no way near in performance to any american plane flying over romania in 44, other then turn radius.

That's why it was yanked from service in 1944, they were being slaughtered by US planes.

The IAR 81c would be the one to have the most fun with, in this game.

While there are dozens of aircraft that could legitimately be added to AH for a number of reasons and purposes, the following are my opinions as to what is priority:

TOP Three Priority:
He111, Ki-43 "Oscar", Tu-2.

Secondary:
Beaufighter, D520, MiG3, Wellington

Tertiary:
Meteor Mk III, Pe-2, and re-model of AH1 Aircraft.   :)

 :aok Special place in my heart for the Oscar. I remember way back in the day  :old: (the Warbirds days, that is)...I took up a Ki-43 and tangled with an F6F and and F4U. The fight went on for 10 minutes; sent them both home with serious damage and landed with 3 rounds of ammo. Plus, it would make for some great early war scenarios (early AVG vs IJA). Also love to see the Meteor added, as a counter to the 262. Other A/C suggestions also fine.

Agreed, would be a good fit in the MW arena.
