Ju 88 D (strategic recon)
He 111 H-3 / H-6
Hs 126
Hs 123
Ju 87 B-2
Ju 52
Fi 156

For the VVS

I-16 (ShKAS-armed types)
I-153 (ShKAS-armed types)
LaGG-3
MiG-3
Yak-1
Pe-2
Il-2
+ more that I can't remember now

Clearly visible that Moskau campaign would not be happy times for reds. Lots of turkey shooting for the Luftwaffe. Although the tactical situation will be in favor of the commies. If the flak accuracy will be close to that of IL2, blue team might have a tough time also. Yes, that and the Friedrich`s 15mm against Sturmovik armor. BUT, the fieldmod did introduce the MG 151/20 for the F2. Another thing - I think I read somewhere that the Bf110s have served in this campaign, although in small numbers. This makes the Hs129 the most welcome plane to be had, because frankly the lufties don`t have much to stop the russian tanks with.
