I don't think so. First we would need an Acron and/or a Macon.

Anyway, it would be one of the most exciting project, imho. Of course, it would not fit into the WWII history based airwars, but why not?

A technical suggestion: the Sparrowhawk have undergear/removed undergear should make as a weapon option. I mean like gunpods eg. of the Bf-109s and Bf-110s. Have gunpod, do not have gunpod. It would be maybe easier to make, than make two different aircrafts. Maybe, but it's not my cup of tea...

And that era US aircrafts had wonderful outlook, paintschemes. Tipical happy peacetime painting.

Cute little aircraft isn't it? And hooks plus wires are already in-game, maybe adjusting the position of the hook and wire can be enough to let us "land" the F9 into a Makon?
