Is the type of gunsight on the Fokker D.XXI Sarja 3 Late chosen at random somehow? About half the time when I select this plane I get a version with a reflector gunsight, while sometimes the same plane can be found with a telescopic sight of the type found on many early war planes, including the D.XXI Sarja 3 Early.

Not only does the game appear to "pick" the type of sight at random, but it is possible to get different aircraft in the same flight with different sights. The last mission I flew had the no.2 and no.3 aircraft in my flight equipped with reflector sights, but the my plane and the no.4 had a telescopic sight.

It's all in the manual ... But yes, there's a 40% chance to get the more modern Revi. You can also tell the program which one to use based on the skin. The HOW is also described in the manual for 4.09.

Nice. Definitely going to be creating some skins so I can get the Revi as standard though

Is there any chance of the other three D.XXIs being made flyable at some point? I'm having a lot of fun flying the Finnish models against the new Russian fighters, even if it is a big challenge because the I-15bis is impossibly agile and the D.XXIs armament is too light to pull off the kind of snapshots I usually use against I-153s and I-16s, but it would be nice to try using the Dutch D.XXI against Bf109Es and Bf110Cs.
