Default Arado 234, B-17, P-47 in Strike

What do you think about these?

Unlocked the Arado today and was anxious to give it a shot in Strike. Gotta say, it does very well in a balanced room. However, a jet bomber with no guns draws jet fighters like a supermagnet the next round and gets shut down. LOL
Otherwise, it's pretty dominant. One of those that might ""keep the game from being as fun" kind of dominant. 2nd largest bombs as well. It's fun to fly though, this guy is FAST. I got to 490 mph level flight before running out of map.
However, it is part of the game. The B-17 and P-47 are also part of the game. I figure I'll keep it parked except for rounds where the bigger guns are brought in. I'm fine bombing with the HE-111 and A-20 until I get the B-17, but people should know you unlock this thing in the single missions. Play through Battle of the Bulge's missions and you've got it. Go into a room with a B-17, you need to have this thing ready to go. Even an HE-111 has a very hard time competing with the B-17 loadout.If I go in with an HE-111 and a B-17 shows up, or I'm the one bomber vs 2+ on the other side...yeah, I plan to bring it in.

I think it would be good for the B-17 to be available to everyone, but maybe that in addition to limiting the years planes are available from, we should have a simple "Jets on/off" toggle and a dlc on/off toggle.
Ideally, give us all the B-17 and P-47 right away, it's not easy building to 50 wins in Strike with the few rooms out there, and most going for 20 minutes.


Thoughts about using these 3 planes?
