It will not happen in official version. But the mod community never signed any contract with NG.

It was never about the use of the plane or likeness or even the name of the plane(s). It was about stupid UBI putting the "Company" name along with it right on the box. If they would have simply put the plane name instead of the NG and plane name, it would never have been an issue.

That's funny, Oleg emailed me back then that it was the accuracy of the likeness that counted.

[=PF=Coastie]

As soon as they put Grumman f6f on the box, it made the plane and it's likeness all Grummans, not the U.S.'s. If they had just said F6F Hellcat, they would have been fine under public domain.

Then NG tricked everyone simply because they have no rights over something that belongs to the American government.
This is almost funny, but it's sad.
