What aircraft would a Battle for Moscow senario need?

IIRC it was only belted with tracer and AP rounds.

think about the endless possibilities in belting for the .303 (as example) in BoB .................every roundtype fired once in history ??!

Hs129 does not fit in the scenario. THE firedepartment for the german Army to hold the soviet counteroffensive were the Bf110s (as max 4 Groups), the Hs123 and Bf109E (in total 3 sqadrons 109 fighterbombers and one squadron of the Henschel) and sure the Ju87 .

The main question won't be "which plane" but "which performances" (regarding quality products from the two sides), I already saw crapy planes easily shooting down another which couldn't been by this during the war.

By the way, the battle of moscow wasn't planned from a long time,having seen objects/models already created , Korea was.

Yeah. I mean who would have thought that the Battle of Britain would just be a cover-up for the il2 remake.

I personally think that late changings of purposes won't bring the game to the expected rentability, funds aren't unlimited.

Mh. I think the Russian market for such kind of things is quite big. Unlike here in Germany where - when I talk about my hobby - I collect strange looks.

Another money-wise interesting scenario will be the pacific (a scenario that I really did like in IL2. I just love carrier ops and to fly online the f3f4 vs the zero gave me always great fun. The 0.50ers on the f3f4 as modelled in old IL2 may have been weak but they were darn effective against the balsa planes.

I dont think the reddies will be worrying too much about their planes, they have the Mig/3 (Excellent plane, very fast at altitude but lacks firepower) and the Yak/1 although in low quantities and without radios ( I wonder how this will be modelled)

It didn't take part in the battle of Moscow, but any early war scenario could use some IAR-80s.
