Convair B-36 Peacemaker?
#18

Given that Il2 1946 presumes greatly accelerated deployment of German and Soviet wunderwaffen with no real rationale, I'd love to see the B-36 (piston engine only version) in the sim. The B-36 was put in development when it looked likely that Britain might fall the Nazis and the US might eventually have to mount cross-Atlantic bombing missions. Priority was very low due to the production need for B-24s and B-32s and then the bomber was never really needed. But for "what if" scenarios the B-36 would be a great Wallie "super plane" Had a reason been presented to accelerate the B-36, one can imagine operational squadrons by 1946. Add the P-82 and all kinds of mayhem can be imagined over the skies of occupied France in 1946!
