Yeah, gotta go with Corsair or Hellcat. Though I love Grumman Ironworks products, I'd lean a little more towards Corsair in this case. Once upon a time, back in the DOS days I had quite the career as a Navy Corsair pilot in Aces of the Pacific, so I guess I'm a little partial to that particular crate.

If neither of those is "European Theater" enough, then P-40 is my next choice.

All very hypothetical, of course.

B.I Special was the one, like was said, that carried the bouncing bomb, and also the worlds largest dumb, conventional (as in non nuclear) bomb. i think 22000lbs or something.

It was used very late in the war, and alot of the Lancs that carried it sported day camo undersides - gotta love total air supremacy (Goering would be very jelous!)

The B.I and B.III are quite similar, except the B.III had H2S radar dome underneath (as an obvious visible difference).

Hmm...They could have added a MiG-3 for the hell of it, and could have also (rather than Korsun) put Leningrad in place for a map. Maybe a Fokker DXXI because I think they look cool and are interesting planes. They could have added at least some French fighers like the MS402 and D.520... under estimated fighters I tell ya!

For all the nations represented in BoP, here's one (or two) planes they could have added.

Italy: Fiat CR.42 or Fiat G.50

Germany: Ju-88 or Do-17

US: F4F Wildcat or P-38 (P-38s played more of a roll in Italy, than a P-51 did.)

UK: P-40 or Gloster Gladiator (It's really surprising for a WW2 Airplane game, to not have added MALTA which was nothing but an aerial combat zone.)

Russia: They could have added the LaGG-3 into BoP instead of the useless Po-2.

Yeah i think this is a good choice

Germany: Ju-88 or Do-17
Again, a good choice, this is what i would choose

US: F4F Wildcat or P-38 (P-38s played more of a roll in Italy, than a P-51 did.)
I'd take the Corsair for this prob, use it as an escort fighter agianst an attack on the Tirpitz. The P38 is a good choice to. Would like Mitchell bomber though.

UK: P-40 or Gloster Gladiator (It's really surprising for a WW2 Airplane game, to not have added MALTA which was nothing but an aerial combat zone.)
A Hurricane with a Merlin sounding in game engine like the P51 and Spitfires have!! Or a Mossie or Lanc.

Russia: They could have added the LaGG-3 into BoP instead of the useless Po-2.
Not to fussed for these haha.
