4-12 wish list (Merged)

[RegRag1977]

When two aircraft collide, the more robust in construction suffers less damage. Or at least both suffer fatal damages.

and these coul be nicwe fly it

A couple of things I've recently learned, which might be of interest to TD:

* The propeller for the P-47D-10 is actually the wider "paddle-blade" version, only fitted on the P-47D-22 series and later. It should be narrower.

* The Finnish version of the Blenheim actually had a modified bomb bay and different ordinance loadouts than are modeled in the game.

A Spitfire XIV or XVIe?

If the XIV model is to be done full justice then it would be:

F.XIVc
F.XIVc Clipped
F.XIVe
F.XIVe Clipped
F.XIVe Bubble Canopy
F.XIVe Bubble Canopy and Clipped

I think there were some power changes involved there too so perhaps the bubble canopy one would be more representative of a March/April 1945 machine while the XIVc would be the mid 1944 and the XIVe would be late 1944. Without introducing ridiculous numbers of variants.

More French Aircraft anyway including we lack French bombers. Also I would like to see Early 109s and other aircraft involved in the spanish civil war

+ gyrogunsight added to all Spitfires from mid 1944. It is shame that only P-51D-20NA has it while brits were the first who used it. Here in Mk.IX :

Yes that's another nice thing to have. I was wondering about a Mark XVI with gyro gunsight and rocket rails. Otherwise, same performance and appearance to a +16lb LF.IX although there were some reports that the Merlin 266 was, in practice, not quite as capable as the Merlin 66.
