TBD Devastator and a Bevy of Beaufighters
#56

flying_spud Wrote:New Beaufighters would be awesome - this strike aircraft hasn't exactly been well represented on combat flight sims down the years. the tbd would certainly fill the gap in midway. Personally though i'd rather see a D4Y Judy or two - that plane served with the IJN from 1942 (as recce aircraft at midway) until the very end of the war in august 1945; a lot longer than the tbd by about 4 years!! along with the a6m5 zero they were the commonest kamikaze aircraft by far - and specialist models were even factory built for this purpose. it virtually replaced the d3a val by mid 1943.

can't believe an ai version was left out really, but it seemed 1c built all us planes first then just run out of time with the japs. :roll:

Just because the judy served longer dosen,t mean its as good as the devastator the judy couldn,t carry torpedeos and it was knot carrier based and the davastator served until 1944 for your information there for the devastator has a right to be in the game!
