What abvout the other BoB fighters??
While I'm at it, why isn't the Defiant and Gloster Gladiator in the game.
I would have also like to at least seen the parked Brewster B-239 Buffaloes of 97 Squadron (AVG), which were grounded at the insistance of the AVG's commander American Group Captain Churchill, which were based at Canterbury from May 1940 onwards.
A letter to Sir Hugh Dowding, chief of fighter command, recommended, "On no account should the Brewster Buffalo be used in combat without severe modifications."
97 Squadron few in the BoB with a mixture of Gloster Gladiators and 8 gun Hurricane Mk.II-B (the Nk.II-A was 12 gunned).
Historically, the Hurricane, Spitfire and Defiant were the principle front line fighters in the BoB with the Spitfires being outnumbered by the other two fighter types at the start of the BoB.
