Daidalos Team's Room -QUESTIONS AND REQUESTS ONLY on IL2 Authorized Addons

[bf-110]

Nice there are two new FAA planes for IL2.
Maybe more should come,like Fairey Firefly and Barracuda.

IDK if these updated are only for IL2,but planes like Ki-45,G3M and D3Y would be awesome too.

Agree on the Japanese aircraft. Both the IJN and Imperial Japanese Army Flying Corps are sorely in need of bomber and attack types.

Add to that the dubious 3D modeling and FMs of the current Japanese single seaters, it makes flying for the Emperor a very difficult, if heroic, enterprise.

The rest maybe, but only eight of those were produced, and none flew operationally.

Wikipedia agrees.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitsubishi_A7M

While it was hoped that the A7M would replace the A6M, production was disrupted by an earthquake in December 1944 in the Nagoya region, and by Allied bombing, with only eight aircraft completed by the end of the war. The type never saw combat.

Neither for IL2 1946?

Have you actually bothered to read past threads that discuss the amount of work needed to add a single aircraft to IL-2, meeting the necessary standards? Anyone can come up with a wish-list, but try to be a little realistic.

I think it's more like "any one of these would be nice" than "give us these, then", Andy.

[AndyJWest]

If that is what he meant, then I apologise.

I just don't want this forum to end up like AAA, where anyone who sees a vaguely WWII-related aircraft says 'gimme this'. TD are doing it for free, and should be thanked for what they do, not snowed under with unrealistic requests. Come to think of it, I'd apply that to 1C:Maddox too, and they will (hopefully) get paid for it.

All the same, I wanna Walrus!

Something else I was thinking about posting. The damage modeling for the Ki-27 seems a little odd to me. A cannon surely destroys it but light machine guns seem to have little effect. It rarely lights on fire and it seems much tougher than other planes of a similar year. The Ki-43 is much weaker and easier to set on fire for example.

It's not just the setting on fire. It's the other components. Is it in some way flawed or meant to be this way?
