Default More Us European Theatre Stuff?

The pacific is great but whole game lacks US European theatre planes
maybe in future updates
French planes?
C-47 flyable
B-17 flyable
A-20 Havoc flyable (European theatre I don't know variant letter )




speaking of A-20s
wiki says VVS had more A20 havocs than USAAF through lend-lease.

Glad to see you got your 4.14.1 update sorted out sturmovikfan.

Latest discussion from last month on flyable C-47 family is here:

http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=229955

Don't know about B-17. Someone from Daidalos Team may be able to answer that.

A-20 Havoc already flyable in A-20C & G versions so not sure what you're asking for there.

Also worth noting if you're not aware, the developers have had major legal problems with US companies wanting licence payments to model their historical aircraft (yes corporate greed, I know), so are reluctant to add US content. It doesn't hurt to ask though. I'd love to see more US and British content too!

about A20 for VVS RKKA ... there was one isssue... we can replace US defend turret for UTK-1 with UBT MG ... but more imoprtant question is - what bomb sight was used on that A20 ... i don't see any reff where and how ... was mounted OPB-1 in A20 ... if OPB-1 was used there... so issue in nose nav pit ..

I think about two american planes that are really missing:
P-47C and an early P-38, for example a G variant.
Also, making the B-25C flyable would be an awesome addition for european theatre, (brits used them widely) and would be quite easy to do compared to other bombers, cockpit could be taken from the J, only the pilot's insturment panel would need changes, and there are lots of good quality reference photos for that.
