Patch 4.10 - Development Updates by Daidalos Team

Are we getting the Italian or Hungarian versions of the RE2000? As I remember it, the Italians weren't fond of it so it mainly went to Hungary and Sweden - with Hungary changing out the engine and armament. It's the latter I'm interested in - an RE2000 without the Breda popguns.

Damnation - they changed the gun but kept the cartridge (if indeed it can be called that).

anyone has some datas about this Gebauer MG ?
as it used the same 12,7mm SAFAT round it most propably had the same V0 put it had perhaps a higher rate of fire - as it was driven by the engine crankshaft.............

Ok, thanks for clearing that one up - Such a shame really. So, did the boys at Microsoft also pay up?

Apparently, one of the NG chairman was also a Microsoft higher authority at the time. Don't know, if it connected in any way.

And I don't really know, if IL-2 success really had any affect on CFS-3 sales...

Most probably this things are totally unrelated.

For now it will be only the Series I Falco, displaying the export version (as it served in Hungary, Sweden and also Italy in small numbers).
There is an option for the hungarian 'Heija' with different engine/guns and maybe the 'hunchback'ed G.A. (series III - long range). Nothing to be promised now, but will be thought over and decided later.
