EthanM Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 I know this is a random question but i want to see what everyone wants for some reason if i could have one AI in dcs ww2 it would for sure be the HE-111 whats yours? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philstyle Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 Fiesler Storch/ Laysander light type. . . But, yeah, a mid-late war twin-engined German level bomber. Even if that just meant adding level bombing to the existing Ju-88, I'd be fine with that. The only other type I think would be cool would be transport (C47/ JU52) On YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/philstylenz Storm of War WW2 server website: https://stormofwar.net/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reece146 Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 All the above! I'm going to try to turn some attention to make the existing DC3/C47 mod work on OB (Channel) this evening. Seems to at least load in Stable. We need Ju-52 and Storch/Lysander. Catalina or other flying boats would be great while we are making wishes into the void. :) The assets pack needs more civilian land and sea vehicles also.

xvii-Dietrich Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 I am a big proponent for getting aircraft that were used in large numbers in a given area. That way we get representative aircraft, and not extreme "corner cases". So, with that aim, assuming our late war maps (we only have late-war flyables at the moment), and ignoring aircraft types that we have or have already been announced (e.g. FW-190 F8 ), then the most common types deployed* are (in order): Allied TAF 2 B-26 Typhoon IB Mk.IV Stirling Luftflotte 3 Ju 188 ( note 188, not 88 ) He 177 ( note: 177, not 111 ) Of all these, if there was only one AI... then the MkIV Stirling. Reasons: it could be used for multiple roles: transport, bombing or glider-tug it is an RAF bomber (something we don't have) there is not a lot of difference between the MkI, MkIII and MkIV, so it could be used as a stand in for an early war Allied bomber. it was used in reasonably large numbers, but is so under-represented in sims/games. PS: During my research, I noted that the LW had a reasonable number of transport aircraft, but they were of a mix of types, so there was no single representative variant. Examples included: FW 200, FW 290, LeO 451 and SM.82. Normally, one thinks of the Ju52/3m, but these others were all being used in greater numbers in 1944 France. However, I still think the Stirling Mk.IV is the best choice at an operational level for Normandy or Channel Map late war. PPS: A Fi-156 Storch would be cool, but flyable... not AI ;) *Ref: Ehrendardt, C-J, "Operation Overlord", pages 20, 21, 24 and 25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msalama Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 MkIV Stirling Cool. I was kind of thinking of either a Lanc or a Hallie myself, but that's not bad either. The DCS Mi-8MTV2. The best aviational BBW experience you could ever dream of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
