New USAAF Campaign Desperately Needed

[mattd27]

First of all the idea of essentially a B-25 with 4 engines has always appealed to me. And it was the most produced bomber of the war, that must be worth noting. It would be cool to have an alternative to the B-17.

However I can totally see your point about the P-38 and would welcome it to the game.

Also, a bit off topic, but the "B-24 Liberator" has got to be one of the coolest plane names.

For us, it would be a cool facet of BOP, but other cultures, and perspectives may not embrace it like we, and the other Allies would...

Il2 1946 has the Pacific-South East Asia theatre in it, and the Japanese community for that game is one of the biggest non-English speaking communities in the world. They turn out a lot of top quality mods for that game too, mainly Japanese aircraft but also some American aircraft from the same theatre.

The accounts of that mission are increadable.
