[Sita]

[Sita]

[Asheshouse]

Its not the same image but details of both Mk1 and MkII cockpit instrument layouts appear in the Polish publication Monografie Lotnicze 24 - Gloster Gladiator

I found this picture by googling "Gloster Gladiator cockpit:



I can provide the same images with better resolution but, unfortunately, nothing more. Anyway google search returns some interesting pictures!

Typhoon would be an entirely new project.

Mosquito bomber variant would essentially be a new project due to scope of 3d work required.

There are plenty of omissions in the IJAAF line-up. This is one of them. But, basically a whole new plane. The mod version might be acceptable, however, if the creator wishes to share his work with DT.

Those are three, big, huge requests.

I believe that an official Lancaster is in the works.

Again, new projects, but often requested additions to the IJN order of battle.
The J1N would be particularly useful if night fighters ever get added to the game.

Very frequently requested but off limits due to NG Consent Decree. Exists as mod.

Basically 2 different aircraft depending on whether you want the B-26/B-26A or B-26B late block production. Would be another big, complex project, but also represents the one big hole in the US bomber line-up.

Quite possibly the most requested Luftwaffe plane not yet modeled. Exists as a mod, which could be added as an official model since the quality is quite good.

[Orangeman]

Thank you Poursuivant for a very complete answer.

I guess a Hellcat and Lancaster are possibles then.

If it is not a taboo question, does DT have contact with Japancat who produced the modded Ki-44?

Another goodlooking mod is Ranwer's updated P11 cockpit which looks good. I don't know if DT has contact with him either.

With the B17 I meant A17 (Nomad) but I guess there aren't so many sources.
