    Whatever. All other WB planes...atleast original ones represent some real plane. (Marseilles "yellow 14", Nowotnys 190a4 and so on)

    Can you give us an example of general brewster? What is your more common one?

    Finnish planes werent just mass of werknummers like german "replaceable" ones. There were only few of planes and those had many pilots. I would ofcourse prefer some existing paintjob to fantasy one.

    Yes, I agree there should be no kill marks. And atleast for polygons sake no plane ID tag.

    USN had 11 f2a-1s, 8 of them were converted to f2a-2 with 1200hp cyclone. None saw service.


    f2A-3 was used in combat only at 4th june 1942. Maybe british or dutch version b-339 or 439 would be better .

    To get some idea of performance.
    Takeoff weights and hp.

    FAF b-239, 2415kg, 1000hp
    USN f2a-3, 3289kg, 1200hp

    No wonder f2a-3 wasn't very succesfull.

    F2a-2 must have been better...they seemed to do ok against a6m2s in dutch hands (though with -200hp).


    Here about dutch b-339 and b-439

    http://www.danford.net/dutch.htm

    Here british test of B-339D...seems not so bad plane.
    http://www.danford.net/eagle.htm

    I couldnt be without laughing to commens of that british pilot...reasons what he mentions for brewster not to be considered as fighter...ROFL.

    He didnt like gear, flap and seat adjustedment levers, one spar wing (opposed to bolted wing..bacause easier to replace)

    huh..does he think aircraft are made for crashing? Id rather have good durability.
