I'm not sure about lend-lease planes to the UK, either. From 1939-41 the RAF bought many US-built planes outright, and often demanded lots of detail changes to the basic airframe (e.g. Buffalo Mk I vs. B-239).
After Lend-Lease started I get the sense that the RAF had to take US planes with fewer modifications. Either that or there was close enough harmonization between the US and the UK that the RAF didn't need to specify changes.
In any case there's very little reason to add a proper RAF Dakota to the game, since the only obvious change would be to a few gauges and placards in the cockpit.
