really so we had nothing to do with the design then ??
you yanks may have made it but it was flawed.....
and it took us brits to fix that flaw with OUR bubble canopy design

to anyone knitpicking about the historical accuracy...
it's a game...

now give the autism a rest and stop being a y-chromosome clich??..

its already been stated it was for game balance.

...now just fly the thing...


as for anglo-american squabbles...BOTH countries helped make a plane...The Pilots made it a great one...

respect...

Charged with another bearing of the same figure, and of the color of the field, so large that only a narrow border of the first bearing remains visible; - said of any heraldic bearing. apparently

Thanks for hijacking and ruining the thread guys.

As for the person who criticized me for pointing out realism, I didn't think my comments were all that unreasonable. I'm simply asking for small textual fixes on things like the encyclopedia........not drastic gameplay changes.

I agree with you totally, This could be so simple for the developers to fix. But at the moment they might not even be aware of the P-51B error. I havn't unlocked the P-51B yet (gotta stop playing multiplayer) so I don't know how it's fire power seems.

Can it blow things out of the sky easily?
If Yes, then it has the 4 20mm cannons and the Name should be corected to just P-51 and the weaponry in the encyclopedia corrected.
If it can't take things down easily then it must have the 4 machineguns and the entire plane model would have to be changed in the patch to make it look like a P-51B. Thats obviously much harder to do. Instead I think the Developers should powerup the machineguns into cannons and make it into a P-51 with the encyclopedia changes I mentioned ubove. Maybe with the added firepower it would have some use online.

I say this again to make it clear. The P-51B visual model in the game IS NOT a P-51B. It IS a P-51 with no letter. They are visualy very different to those of us that know about these things.

You wouldn't expect, say when forza 3 is released to find the developers had acidently given the Ferrari Enzo a V8 sound effect and performance of a Ferrari 360. Car Fans would complain non stop. This P-51B is no different.

The most accurate thing to do is call it a Mustang Mk IA outside of the trials aircraft no usaaf p-51 ever used the cannon fit to my knowledge whereas the RAF did use that armament operationally

Sometimes I wish there was a magic temporary mod button on forums which you could press to delete posts like this, or magically turn it into a readable language.

Also this thread is about the information of planes not being historically correct. The P-51D stats are correct. There are other threads for you to complain about how the "PonyD" flies.
