Aircraft that would be nice to have in IL-2 BOP

[Leweegibo]

Any extra planes would be nice really...
but just for shuts n giggles:
Halifax
Wellington
You missed a biggie: The Lanc

as for maps/levels
London at night, blitz time!

(ok I have hardly done any of the game so maybe that's in there)

[Panzergranate]

London at night during the Blitz.... that would mean the need for the HUrricane II C with cannons in nightfighter guise, an all black Defiant "Steel Bat" (as the Luftwaffe called it), Beaufighter and Blenhiem IV night fighters.

Musn't forget Ju-88 night fighters and Luftwaffe night fighter variants.

As for the Welligton, would other players complain that it is next to impossible to shoot down??

"Aw c'mon.... how can it still fly without most of one wing and no tail, eh??"

As many people that already complain about the B-17? You want the Lancaster?

The lancaster is far superior to the B-17. It has like a 40,000 pound payload I think.

Imagine that thing in strike.

[Spitfire23]

Ive always said Avro Lancaster god she's a beauty

@mattmanB182: She could carry a payload of 22,000 lbs. but ofcourse they had to make modifications to her to fit it in. But yes she could carry the heaviest weapons in her time

[FOZ_1983]

How about a multiplayer strike map AT NIGHT, with DLC being the missions and the avro lancaster and de havilland mosquito.

The idea is the mosquito is the pathfinder and has to use flares etc to light up the target, and the lanc can come in and drop all its ordanance on the target.

In their we have some BF110 night fighters

That would be fun.


This aside i would like the following planes -

RAF

Avro Lancaster
De havilland mosquito
Hawker Hurricane MkIIc
Hawker typhoon/tempest (either i dont mind)
Gloucester gladiator (why not?)

USAF

B25 Mitchell
B24 Liberator
F4U Corsair
P38 Lightening(For everyone else, not me i dont like it)

LUFTWAFFE

JU88
JU87 (fitted with flak 1
Dornier DO-17


Also panzer - this thread has already been done to death on here mate. Not sure why were doing it again

imagine is the key word for me, only been able to play strike once and everyone was fighter/bombers, dying to see b17!

maybe a bigger spread on targets in strike if that's an issue, I'd love to see a bombing raid of 3+ Lancaster turn some German factories into dust!

Er i dont know, i dont think so but im sure someone will confirm.

I just flew the warhawk in Targetware beta today, it's a great little plane, maneuvers well even on targetware's unforgiving model. The p-39 is good too. I don't like the p-38 at all.

The Beaufighter is useless except as an attack plane but it should be in the game too

ok for more heavy bombers to be added, but they should be either banned or very limited from strike mode. If a heavy bomber gets to start that close to the target, it's pretty much game over already
