New suggestion for aircraft and missions
#1

G'day everyone!
Firstly a huge salute and thank you to all the modders whom have brought this game to a new level of enjoyment. Your hard work is greatly appreciated!!

Secondly, I have a suggestion that may or may not be possible.
Since people are working on Fleet Air Arm mods, would it be possible to create catapult launched aircraft from capital ships like heavy cruisers and battleships or even Catapult Armed Merchantmen ( CAM ships ). These merchant ships had the Hurricanes in the Atlantic convoys.
This would open up room for Arado Ar 196 missions and create places for new aircraft like Walrus, Kingfisher, Duck, Curtiss Seagull etc.
Would it be possible to modify the V1 launch platform already in IL2?
Would this require completely new ships to be modelled or just remodel existing platforms?
Lastly, as I am obsessed with flying bombers and amphibious aircraft, I would like to throw some suggestions for new aircraft out there. If works are already underway on some of these aircraft, please let me know so I wont harp on about them in future.... :)

For torpedo bombers, how about the Hanley Page Hampden, flown in the ETO and also from Russian Bases by RAF/RAAF crews (probably RCAF & RNZAF too)
Or the Dornier DO217 (was used as a torpedo bomber)

For amphibious aircraft, any of the Dornier flying boats, PBM5 Mariners, Walrus, Grumman amphibious aircraft like Duck, Goose etc, Sunderland, Stranraer, Ar 196, Kingfisher........

For the bombers.

B26 Marauder
Swordfish
Beaufort
Potez 631
He 177
FW187 (very similar to HS 129)
Ju 390 New York Bomber

Well thats about all I can think of at the moment. There is a myriad of missions that can be created with each of these aircraft, some historical and some fictional but all totally enjoyable.

Thanks for your time.

Cheers and beers
