Hi mates!!!

I know about the aircraft request topic but I think that sometimes it is forgot from old members so a little refresh can be done!

I think that , after all the new aircraft in WIP or scheduled by Tainan development Team , in the Japan side are only missing few important aircraft; I think that they are:

KI51 - SONIA - (army air to ground)
F1M - PETE - (on board recon)
KI45 - NICK - (army heavy fighter) - I haven't understand if someone are doing it in the meantime
KI48 - LILY - (army light bomber)
J1N - IRVING - (navy recon)
KI49 - HELEN - (army medium bomber)
KI67 - PEGGY - (army & navy medium bomber)
P1Y - FRANCES - (navy medium bomber)

Another update that can be really useful is a true bomber transformation of the stock G4M2 in a new slot with bomb bay doors and bomb load!!

Hope that this refresh can be useful for some japan plane lover!!!!!

cheers

Ki-44 Shoki

[Radoye]

Ki-44 is already WIP, no?

[310_cibule]

Did I miss anything? :o

What japanese bomber do you want the most?

I like the Nakajima G8N1 Renzan (1944) or the KI67.

I am going to built one. If I am done I will ask you here to help me to bring that plane in a new slot into the game!

Here we are now: (will be updated, if new votes come in)

H6K "Mavis" --------------------- 2 Votes
Yokosuka P1Y ------------------- 1 Vote
Nakajima G10N1 Fugaku ------- 1 Vote
Nakajima G8N1 Renzan -------- 1 Vote

[XB-49]

Its the Nakajima G10N1 Fugaku for me.

H6K "Mavis"

[Fusek]

I suggest choosing a mid to late war medium bomber , like the Yokosuka P1Y. This category is the biggest gap in the Japanese bomber arsenal at the moment.

[VT-51_Razor]

H6K "Mavis"

Definitely a thumbs up for the Mavis! +1000

Hi mates!

When I write the MOST NEEDED I mean that I think that those plane are the ones that can fill the gap in the sim ac list for have an historically correct list of japanese aircraft in the 41-45 era:

- I haven't put WIP or SCHEDULED aircraft!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (like the KI44)
- I haven't put training aircraft!
- I haven't put transport aircraft! (the MAVIS was so shifted from mid 42)
- I haven't put very heavy bomber! (the IJNA or IJAA haven't tha background for employ them correctly before the end of 47 at least; remember that USAAF use B17/24 from 37 and gain the full maturity in 43 thanks to long range escort)
- I haven't put limited production or prototype!

I have put only the one that I think can be useful for the most of us if realized!

cheers
