    i explained that pe-8's appearance is accidential. anyways, we could not deny it to avoid insultig of designer.
    the only thing i could do is placing it into 1943 instead of 1941.
    don't repeat accidents.

    1941: yak-1-4
    1942: yak-1-20, yak-7b
    1943: yak-1-40"b", yak-9(+yak-9t, +yak-9d)
    1944: yak-3-16, yak-9m (+yak-9dd)
    1945: yak-3p, yak-9u
    there's two parallel rows of yaks: "1-3" and "7-9" (yak-7di is first yak-9 actually)...
    having troublesome development of planes and limited number of slots, and ien-made yak-3(-9), developers decided to add only really bright (still numerous) yak models.
    making yak-7b simultaneous with yak-1-20, or yak-9m with yak-3-16 would be a somehow wasting of slots, imho.

    If reds can have Pe-8, we can have Ar234.

    I propose the find another abandonware flight sim and hack server software for it and give us a whole new game, say, um, massively multiplayer EFalcon
    or
    free drugs and prostitutes
    no

    um
    just the massively multiplayer EFalcon

    I would do it, except I am not a programmer or engineer and I only ever even saw a server one single time and was said to me "Don't touch it, stupid. What the fuck are you doin with a drink in here?"

    And I only just learned what a * is in the xterm, so my skills just got a whole lot better. Back before I knew what a * was, usin my computer was a real fuckin drag.
    See, this is the thing about havin gaps in my huge but gaping eductaion, like, it is.
    What was I sayin?
    Oh, yeah, the *.
    Twenty years I been usin PCs, I always knew what a . was and all the numbers too, but the fuckin * bein missin has fucked me up. Now I am ready for some advanced shit.
    What was I sayin?
    oh

    Ar234 only advantage is speed.

    It can be shot down while taking off or landing, no defensive turrets fitted (most Ar234 did not carry the tail guns, and it was shit hard to the pilot to man them from the forward cockpit using a periscope).

    The payload is light too, 3x500kg or 1x1000kg, nothing super-uber, just suficient to help close a small field.

    BTW, adding RATO (Rocket Assisted Take-Off) for Do217, Ju88, He177 and Ar234C would be realistic (from mid 1944 to the end of the war). Its impossible to add a super-ultra-wep with 5 min. duration for heavy load take-off ?

    Yes I think golds need a bomber. Anyone heard of an Italian bomber called Caproni Ca 313? Apparantly this aircraft had good armament, and looked a bit like a ju88, same basic style. Of course the Dornier Do17 bomber is nice choice too. For Japanese bombers there is Nakajima G8, Aichi B7, Aichi M6. I think G8 would be a good choice.

    Btw I have noticed that the il2 with twin 37mm and stukaG with twin 37mm doesn't kill tanks or jeeps very well :) Maybe some changes could be made to ensure that these aircraft destroy tanks better?

    Now for more important matters: ;)

    395km/h, 500kg bombs or 1 torp, 3*12.7mm+17.62 - is that interesting?! quite far from ju 88.

    Actual RPS. Take a look this:
    - Plane ----Allies----Axis---Advantage Allies
    *Fighters***51****39*******+12
    *Bombers***16****12*******+ 4

    Considering B5N2 and D3A2 almost useless..... it is worst.

    I hope Do217 cames to new FHL :cheers:

    He111 would be nice. But I'd settle for the Do217.
