1. I've got some SEAC HQ (sorry, used to Pacwar here) bombers on the US West Coast. How do you guys usually get 'em to India? 2. You can tell I'm a fan (just look at avatar) but where's the "regular" F6F-5 (not the NF version)? Kinda weird it's not in game since they in fact made more -5 Hellcats than -3's. Also the -5N (where's the -3N??) has the exact same performance in-game, but the -5 in reality had water-injection for the engine and some small streamling upgrades and would be slightly faster/ more maneuverable with the spring tab alierons. 3. Where's the Bearcat/P-51H/P-80, etc and other late-war goodies the US would have had if the war had gone into 1946 as it does in game time? Do any of the mods have stuff like that? 4. Onto the planes thing again, just looking around and the Mustang (IIRC never known as a particularly rugged airplane) has a higher durability rating than the P-40E (P-40's ability to take a pounding remarked on by many pilots) and the F4U-1D has a higher armor/durab rating than the F6F (the plane that gave Grumman the "Iron Works" nickname).....weird....also, just now noticed the B-25J armament doesn't include the additional 4 .50 MG's mounted in the external pods on fuselage sides below the cockpit, and where's the B-25 with the 75mm?
