But since then Daidalos Team have taken over and they have stated that the Pacific theatre is under developed in the game and they will / are looking at adding new content for the Pacific theatre at a future date, but they will not add or incorporate any thing to do with Northrop Grumman. That said the Helldiver is made by Curtiss so there is hope .
As for the Judy I never heard of it being worked on for Pacific Fighters or by any Modders, maybe Daidalos Team will do it if they think its important enough :?:.

This lawsuit is %#*@# ! [Expletive removed by Fireskull]. It's total %#*@# ! [Expletive removed by Fireskull] that they would stifle this guy's creativity because they featured one of their planes. I think they should be proud that it's in there, those stupid greedy lawyers make me sick. I wish that they could include planes in the game without BEING sued, but sadly, it is not gonna happen. The lawyers are greedy people working for greedy interests of a company that wishes to start a pissing contest whenever it likes. Always gotta think of some lame excuse. How about a P-61 Black Widow? Oh wait, THAT's NORTHROP, their stupid lawyers and their damn overpaid fat cats can't bother to see that other people are making their work shine. If only we could counteract that lawsuit by Northrop Grumman. Stop this legal %#*@# ! [Expletive removed by Fireskull] because I am sick of it. When did they ever care? Their F6F Hellcat is in the game, so is the Avenger ALL GRUMMAN designs.
Sorry for the rant, but I am so sick of hypocrisy and zealous holier-than-thou applications of copyright law. Copyright law has gone to hell in the last few years. It used to be in flight sims that planes could be included without lawsuits. Now we have to worry about fat cat lawyers THAT RUIN HISTORICAL ACCURACY at every turn thanks to their BIG fat paychecks. I am so sick of this shit.
We should help defend them, not stand by and let these assholes ruin our games!
THIS IS %#*@# ! [Expletive removed by Fireskull]!
