What a great coincidence: first we discover they're about to release an apparently secretly developed arcade game that looks all in all like they used SoW:BoB development material, and suddenly, tally ho!:

An improvised dev update to placate the masses.

Your comment is unnecesary... When you´re developing a product then you don´t want that the people get confused, or saying a lot of things (erroneus thing). Then, of course, you go out and talk, and show screenshots.
Why a lot of ppl says absurd things?? relax, wait, enjoy.

EDIT: Sorry for my english, it´s not my language

Apparently the update is made up of planes which are not modeled by Maddox Games. This comes from a reliable source over at SimHQ and the source is SaQSoN (Vladimir Kochmarsky) He writes:"This update consists exclusively from RRG Studio's works. He-he" And as I understand RRG Studios are the ones responsible for the Korean fligthsim "Project Galba"

I think the update is awesome. Nice pictures of the more unknown participants in the Battle of Britain. I especialy like the upclose pictures of the planes cockpits. Wow.. Simply stunning attention to detail..

Hi to all, as it's my first post here

Frankly, I must say that the Skyraider is a real beauty, I can't wait to be able to fly it over Korea!

The level of details of the aircrafts is also awesome, not very far from the numbers of polygons used for static 3d renderings!

I can already head Mr. Nehalem knocking at my door

Well ...we do have a Beaufighter Mark 21 which arrived in Pacific Fighters...which is a RAAF version with American engines and different armament. A Mark I is going to be a bit different in probably a number of different ways. Just because its AI in the initial release doesn't mean it won't be later either....but I think it'd be more interesting and more fun to have a fully functioning Beaufighter Mark X with full capabilities later on. Read up on the type to find out why that might be interesting. The Mark I wasn't a really big player anyways...its the later version where the type came into its own.

I am astonished valuable time is being wasted on the Anson and Bf 108---neither are necessary for a B of B sim (OK, the Anson gives Heinkel 111s something to dominate). A Hudson makes more sense. One would have hoped for a flyable Beaufighter IF so that a radar war would have been possible for the Blitz. Considering the non-importance of the Gladiator to the Battle of France and B of B, its inclusion is another brain-pithing stunner.

As for the Korean War aircraft---WOW!
