Will there ever be any US-built planes in this series? Or are we going to get an alternate history version of the Eastern Front with no P-39s, P-40s, A-20s, B-25s, etc? There were a lot more of these than there were Hurricanes.
I ask this because I suspect that they are not allowed to create any US planes as part of the legal agreement that took place after the Pacific Fighter screwup. Has anyone in the development team talked about this at all?
I'm afraid if I ask this over at the yellow boards I'll just get banned.

You probably wouldn't get banned for asking that question over there.
For sure, you'd never get an answer.

BTW...If you have not spent at least $1000.00 on upgrades to fly this "pig"?
Then your question is premature.

Just kidding...

It would be nice to have an answer to your question, just don't expect one from 1C.

Close to $1000, but I needed an upgrade anyways.
I seem to be part of a very small minority in that I don't blame Northrop Grumman for defending their copy write. UBI, or whoever, not asking permission in the first place, like everyone else has to do, was a major cockup on their part. I suspect that it forces any sims this team may produce into a very tight corner. Try to imagine a theater expansion to North Africa or the Med that does not include KittyHawks, or A-20s.

We already have an "alternate history" version of the BoB so ...

It's only the products of one particular manufacturer that's affected, P-40s and A-20s might show up, but I think the Russian developers will more likely concentrate on Soviet planes.
