One day, 
When a 3d modeller got bored, the FM guy is tripping and the producer got magic mushrooms for dinner and all of them said WTF Why not?!
Just for the Fun...

It would need a suitable match:

Ideally, we could have the whole shebang:

2.thumb.jpg.954e3650bb5f3447854cba1e4416cd9b.jpg

This would include the Oscar (to get stomped on)

plus the items for upgrade kit for the monster:

B-29_in_flight.jpg.692a03579f4ec0b0287ee60485f95e51.jpg

and

nagasaki-fat-man-gettyimages-113638781.thumb.jpg.e806892bc8268d0023d3f20ace3d562b.jpg

and

1200px-Uss_nevada.thumb.jpg.e2985e5465b81ea558ff2086e53e86d0.jpg

and

5.jpg.90cb435c36325e7e799c5c7c38f20862.jpg

 

The required move to get from your Oscar-stomping Godzilla to Tokyo-stomping Godzilla would be:

Take your own  1200px-Uss_nevada.thumb.jpg.e2985e5465b81ea558ff2086e53e86d0.jpg       and add 5.jpg.90cb435c36325e7e799c5c7c38f20862.jpg until 3.jpg.341a85349af263b36d54ce7859f33b4a.jpg

(This of course takes several rounds, like many; unless you have many players on your side that help you with your move)

Then combine

B-29_in_flight.jpg.692a03579f4ec0b0287ee60485f95e51.jpg with nagasaki-fat-man-gettyimages-113638781.thumb.jpg.e806892bc8268d0023d3f20ace3d562b.jpg and 3.jpg.341a85349af263b36d54ce7859f33b4a.jpg

It is of note that if you are so inept at your play that you would actually miss the orange target, that does't matter. It is all about the principle.

One round later, Level 1 Oscar-stomping Godzilla will be upgraded to Level 2 and become Tokyo-stomping Godzilla.

 

The counter move then is:

Combine

A_prototype_of_J7W_Shinden.jpg and images.jpg.43776a59cc4af094391a50c27e3c26c9.jpg and Example-of-a-latest-generation-ejection-seat-Martin-Baker-Mk16-The-displayed-model-is.png.b9e78bb65f035e9650974bc3e656ce3b.png

and no more stomping. Until next time.

 

This can be a great game!

It'd end up stomped for sure...  but your photograph shows a Frank 😉

 

MY WISH FOR A FLYABLE IN THIS GAME... if it really has to be one only... same as Props, my wish goes to the Kawanishi N1K2-Ja Shiden Kai.

Just consulted the infos on Wikipedia:

 

The Imperial Japanese Army Air Service received one Fw 190A-5 for evaluation purposes.

Imperial Japanese Army Air Force purchased 5 [Bf 109] E-7s in 1941. The aircraft were used for tests and trials.

 

Five Japanese Bf 109s only... one Japanese Fw 190 only... and none of them had been used in real combat missions. So it is very unlikely that the "Combat Pilot" engineers develop one of these German planes, at least not as long as they stay in the Pacific theatre of operations. Maybe someday, if the project develops further into a "generic" WWII series of combat flight sims. I may be wrong, but that's what I think. Sounds logical to me.

Then it should be simulated how to stow it in a sub and drive it to Japan.

I hope they never waste time on Jerry aircraft unless they are in a combat setting where they were used (one day) :classic_rolleyes:

Anyway, there are pretty good versions of these aircraft already in other games...

 

 

Looks like there was some misunderstanding, it was supposed to be a small joke, so i added the smiley now, this way it will not be taken so seriously :classic_wink:

Ps: i'm a würger whinner, if i can put a würger somewhere, even where it doesn't belong, i do it.:classic_tongue:

I know that, but if Tetris is a great game, then slotting a 190 in a Kaidai VI under time pressue might be something. 😆

Not one legitimate flight sim that I have ever seen has put this beautiful plane that was a workhorse of the US Navy.  Fighters are great and all, but attack aircraft did the real damage.  And early war, there is no denying that the SBD was one of the best made.  PLEASE put the Dauntless in!

They probably aren’t going to make a Battle of Midway without the SBD, so I doubt you have to worry about that.

I hope you are right.  Too many times we see important battles that you fly ONLY the fighters.

It will be in there... c'mon, they played an important role during the battle, so there is no way they will be left out.

This is all about Midway after all, so you will need the aircraft that can sink carriers, fighters can't do that...

I've flown the SBD in IL2 1946 many times. I'd consider 1946 a legitimate flight sim. In fact, one of the best flight sims!

I never saw that one, so I will stand corrected that one exists.  (I refuse to count the arcade shooter crap from CoDV).  I think my point still stands that it is under represented though. 🙂

Folland Gnat Fighter.

Smaller than a Spitfire!

Roll rate greater than 360 deg per second!

Proven in combat.  India Pakistani war 1965 shot down 7 Sabres for loss of 2 Gnats in fighter combat.

Happy landings,

Jason and crew will be hitting the Pacific arena for the foreseeable future, I'd say by the time they get around to doing a Folland Gnat in any meaningful theatre and map, you will probably have ceased to exist, along with the rest of mankind...
