 I'd realy like a b25-H w/ the 75mm nose cannon    Nothing like a NOE b25-h run, popping up 5 miles to target and showering  it w/ HE rounds.

and a battle ship

if allies get the what if planes then so should axis.
In which case the LW should alays have the best aircraft.Something rarely seen in AH.
In the hole time ive been playing AH ive only once felt i had a superior model and that was the dora.
F8f? p51H? etc etc are not in service during the 2nd world war so i dont see why we should see them before all the ones that did fly.
make AH a fantasy game and i think people will leave in droves.Me included  
then again if they cost an absolute fortune in perks? ell maybe id stay   hehe

my vote? NO after WW2 types please.

I dont think people will leave in droves if late war aircraft were added and somehow enhanced the enjoyment of the game.

I'm not that great no matter what plane I'm in but it's more interesting to see something different then the 'other' sim.

(but finishing off earlywar planeset is more important for scenarios, which I like more then anything and a lot of others do, too   )

You're smoking something again.  These are things that have been debated endlessly and are far from being answered in a single, absolute line.  Also note that the Axis aircraft were being discussed.  Japan WAS also an Axis nation.

Hazed-,
Tell me, when the Spitfire F.MkXIVc entered RAF service on January 3rd, 1944, what did the Luftwaffe have that was a better air-to-air fighter?  We're not talking about August when the Fw190D-9 entered service or October when the Me262 entered service, we're talking about January.

Vulcan,
I agree.  Please join me in my efforts to get HTC to add the Mosquito FB.MkVI Series 2 in v1.08.  Note my signature.
I was merely posting info on the Japanese aircraft being discussed.  I think the J2M3 Raiden "Jack" and Ki84 Hayate "Frank" should both be added.  The A7M2 Reppu "Sam" might make a good Japanese perk plane as there were, single digit, wartime production numbers.

S!

 IMO we don't need any "last weeks of WW2/1946" planes yet when the the current planeset is missing some types that were in use with success before these monsters even left the ground for test flights.
 It is a bad/stupid thing to compare,but IMO WB has a slightly better planeset already than AH and more is added to WB3.There is now planes from early/mid/late war era.Also a bigger variety of bombers and the LW even has the Ju52 for troops!
 So..why don't get more planes that were used in great numbers/success and add the monsters as EXPENSIVE perks later,or even have a new arena for them?Just my 2 cents,so don't flame me to death here   *wears asbestos suit*

I too love the Bearcat but I think the game needs more early-war aircraft.  However, I fear that I wouldn't really be able to fly my Wildcat, Hurricane or Warhawk because I'd be at a severe disadvantage with everyone else flying N1ks, FW's and others.

I have a warm spot for the B-25H - my dad flew it.  Slow rate of fire, but what a hit
