Good points all around. I do wonder how often it would have a Russian sight and if an American sight would be the better choice from a historical perspective.

While we're on about the P-39... it would really benefit from having a skin upgrade too I think. Especially to accommodate the different theaters and markings it would wear. The later P-39N and Q models did see a little use with the USAAF in the Med and elsewhere and it would be nice to have default "stars and bars" markings.
