[Mosin]

I forgot to include recon my choice is DO-17 too.
I would also like to change the multi-role fighterbomber role to the
P-47 THUNDERBOLT

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

i'm interested as to why gnome's gone for these two............

Fighter - Messerschmitt ME-262
Nightfighter/Interceptor - Northrop P-61 "Black Widow"

 

[Mosin]

I dont know but my guess is that its because of
The messerschmitt 262 was fast thats its virtues.
And the P-61 was a good interceptor.

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

but anything could turn inside a -262 and whilst speed is vital in a dogfight, so is manouverability.............

and there are far better intorcepters than the -61...........

 

[toffigd]

Sure there are better ones than the P-61, but no one said you have to pick the best ones. I choose my favourites (note the Battle, Morane and Defiant - rather worst than the best ).

 

[Gnomey]

I choose them because I like them, as toffigd has said. They may not be the best, I could say others, I was considering the Heinkel HE-219 "Uhu" for night interceptor or the Ta-152 for interceptor but I prefered the 2 I choose.

 

[mosquitoman]

Heavy Bomber- Lancaster
Medium Bomber- Whitley
Light Bomber- Mossie
Dive Bomber- Skua (only because I'm building a model of one at the moment)
Fighter-Bomber- Thunderbolt
Long-Range Fighter- P-51

Nightfighter- Mossie
Seaplane- Catalina
Carrier Fighter- Firefly

[toffigd]

Ah yes, Skua looks nice for me, especially in pre-war natural aluminium colour And I'm building a model of it as well.

 

[mosquitoman]

That's the same colour scheme, I'm doing! Which manufacturer made your kit? Mine's Earstern Express

 

[toffigd]

Mine kit is a Polish one - Chematic/Aga (I bet you didn't know such ), the serial number of Skua will be L8228 if I remeber well.
