I doubt a main developer ,that have to earn money ,will put his efforts in these scenarios IMHO
perhaps later, i am speaking here of years  , some 3.party will make that possible.

I understand what your saying...but if they did the Pacific theater "the right way", they should start with 1937 & China. I actually see Khalkhin Gol as a separate "add-on".

As to maps, yes those rice paddies are unique or even uniquer would be the Halong Bay.

Something like that would be a real treat to fly over!

Yea...I'm aware of the role that bombers played in the campaign. Some truly amazing long distance sorties...the Japanese where one of the first to realize the importance of escort fighters in bombing raids. Another reason for the A6m's development...
