Fairey Battle the missing RAF fighter/bomber

[Tavingon]

[JG52Krupi]

You do realize it was a terrible terrible aircraft?

So?

Some of the most fun I've had in this series is doing "impossible" things with the old, odd, under performing, "crap planes" in the set.

Bagging an La5fn with a CR 42 when the La5 was truly uber.

Bagging an Me 262 with a Buffalo.

Bagging multiple F6Fs with a Ki 27.

Bagging 109 K4s with a P40.

Flying an IL2 like a fighter, and winning.

Not everyone subscribes to the "War Clouds" 1944 mind set you know.

Of course I was only joking... but at least some of the aircraft you mentioned were deemed okay at some point in the war while the battle was just rubbish from the start

Yep,it got a right mauling by the Luftwaffe,and they got slaughtered over the Maastrict bridge attack by accurate AA guns,but some of us do like the historic element.

I know where Tavingon is coming from,I'd also like to replicate the Maastrict Bridge attack,see if I could get my Squadron through a barrage of Nazi AA guns,to bomb a vital bridge and get them back home again,what a challenge,great stuff.

I'd like to dogfight a battle against a stuka
