Seriously though, can you imagine a third world country like Canada invading the US? (Joke NS )

Click to expand...

They have, have you ever been to Florida!

Yeah and the people from Florida (nothing but Displaced Yankees! anyways) invade North Carolina every summer and fall. Me and my family have a house in the mountains of North Carolina and we would always have to leave the area when the "Floridiots" would come!

I can see why they invade NC tho, Ive got family out there, and when I visited the Outer Banks I knew Id found the place I wanted to live when I get out the hole I presently call home!

Back on topic (sorry! ), I can see where people are coming from with not choosing a heavy bomber, but think of it this way:

A third world country doesnt have a lot of infrastructure. A week-long offensive with a wing of heavies would destroy what was there...then you walk in and begin the victory celebrations

DerAdlerIstGelandet · May 11, 2005

Yeah but you have to afford the bombs and fuel to fly the heavies.

If you had only to launch a minimal ground offensive against an enemy with no C3I structure or logistical support, it could well be worth it. After all, you'd spend the dosh on a landward slog to the objective otherwise...

we used to invade every fri night our last call was at 1 and theres was 3 and only a 5 minute drive

But our side of the falls is prettier.

Aww who cares, their bars are open!

Heavy Bomber:B-24 or Pe-8, both could carry bug payloads
Light / Attack Bomber: A-26, but wasn't that a medium bomber? That or Il-2
Fighter Bomber:Mossie or Beaufighter
Air to Air: P-51
Trainer:Hind, could be used as trainer and light bomber/close ground support

DerAdlerIstGelandet · May 12, 2005

The A-26 could be used as a light bomber or a attack aircraft. She could carry a good payload of 6000lb of bombs and she packed a punch of cannons and machine guns. I believe she could even be fitted with rockets under the wings.

16x .50 cals in fact. Lovely!

DerAdlerIstGelandet · May 12, 2005

She was a marvalous plane, I believe. My favorite aircraft of her catagory.

I knew you'd come spoil the party.

plan_D · May 12, 2005

Really, it was a party open to being spoilt but I like the A-26 so unfortunately (for me) I wasn't able to spoil the party with any serious conviction.
