Future Brit Bombers...any news? Rumors?
 

Way back when ,I labored under the mistaken idea that most if not all Brit & German ac operating during the BoB period of time would be represented in the sim.IC didn't do too bad when it came to German ac ( although not all are flyable as yet..) but came nowhere close with RAFaircraft ,especially bombers active in 1940,I'm thinking of the Hampden & Whitley in particular,and if you include the Battle of France the unlovely Battle & the Army Coop plane the Lysander...then again there is the entire Fleet Air Arm to think about as well.( If memory serves weren't some of these planes featured in screenshots in previews of the sim issued before its release?)
Now I keep pretty close track of this sim ( I really like it...) but I haven't heard boo when it comes to these possibilities..I have heard about some workings going on about the eastern front , but so far that's about it. Of course I'd first like to have the whole thing function as is first,and the already included ac made flable, but then will IC fill in the gaps? Has anyone tracked down further info?

nothing about an additional flyable british bomber.
But one that could carry more than the Blenheim's 1000lb would be welcome for online event's.
Even a Coastal Command Beaufort was able to carry 2000lb, and even more a torpedo. Would be something new to fly torpedoattacks :) (ok, ok, the ships :D )

The Handley Page Hampton would be sweet, and it fits smack into the time frame

Cheese

"Handley Page Hampton"
THAT would actually my personal favorite ;)
A 'pilot's plane' like the Ju88 was one.
And its bombload should be sufficient with 4000lb :D

but i think we should be happy if a flyable Wellington will be made by 1C....as it is already in game.................

Ahem, it is actually 'Hampden', and it would be fantastic if it could be included.

+1 for Swordfish
I think it likely that we would get bombers that are already AI though. If that is the case I want a Wellington for some night raids. Target for Tonight anyone?

Are you really comparing an Hampton to a Ju88 ?? !!:shock::shock:

Well, step by step.

Blenheim should behave as it is suppose to above 12k fts. It doesn't in Cod at all. I wish 1C fix this first otherwise the plane is almost useless. Well almost.

Flyable wimpy would be a great benefit then.

Please Luthier, focus on these two. The rest may come later on. Please.

For me, a new module for the Eastern front or desert war or maybe the 1940 Battle of France. The next one 1941 Greece or Russia? Russia 1941, yes is the logical choise.:-P
