I'm currently researching and gathering documented flight data on the historical Ta-152C series for a new slot Ta-152C-1 and C-3 that actually perform as they should in mid-range and in flight and management characteristics (maximum speed figures are not the concern here, in fact they could be lessened from the in-game model at low alt).
This would not require visual remodelling so much (it'd be nice to have a visual clean up), but for more accurate and historical FM/WM modelling for new aircraft in new slots (ie. no cheats). The current in-game Ta-152C may be considered a rudimentary C-0 prototype.
I've posted data requests at the Luftwaffe Experten website (where a number of specialist Ta-152 series published authors are kicking around lately), and will be purchasing some recent Ta-152 series publications at a city military specialist bookstore later in the week (damn expensive, I hope you guys appreciate this
)
I'll get back to this thread posting and referencing celebrated data and confirmed documentation about the flying characteristics of the Ta-152C which is undoubtedly the single most important German fighter type to enter major production mid-1945.
I propose therefore at the onset, reflecting the sentiments of several members at this site recently, the inclusion of full production variants of the Ta-152C-1 and C-3 as modder projects for new slot aircraft with new FM/WMs.
These aircraft types are absolutely crucial for Luftwaffe 1946 speculative simming (as opposed to 1946 fictional simming). It is part of a personal project to further the accurate inclusion of late war Luftwaffe fighter types as opposed to the AI cannon fodder in vanilla Il2.
