I wouldn't say VMSB-241 Vindicators were helpless at Midway. They couldn't keep up with the SBDs and hit the Japanese carriers, but were able to assist in the sinking of Japanese cruiser, despite being in shall we less than ideal flying condition.

I realize it will probably never be in the game, but nice to dream about, to complete my midway mission.

Ki-10 is a requirement for Sino-Japanese war scenarios, otherwise not so much.

+1 for the PBY, although I'm not sure if IL2 allows amphibious ops.

Of course, that too. But I think of the Russo-Japanese conflicts of the late 30s as being "spillover" from the Japanese attempts to conquer China.

I've been studying the Sino-Japanese air war from 1932-39 and its a huge, untapped area for flight sims. The war zone was even bigger than the Eastern front, and although mechanized and aerial ops were far less intense, total casualties were higher.

I fear it would be almost impossible for Il2 to model, though, due to the very large, densely populated maps needed to do the area justice . Also, you'd need dozens of new ground objects and vehicles, an almost entirely new plane set, and perhaps a better method of modeling boggy or muddy ground.

Both models we have in archive in current stage at lod0. (25% done)
Unfortunately we don't have free hands for finish this planes.

If somebody know IL2 modeling in 3dsmax/ Photoshop can continue in DT 3rd party on this models.
