Dont think of it as being vastly outnumbered ... but just having a large target selection.

The only thing more accurate than incoming fire, is incoming friendly fire

The only good news I get from that is that the spitfire and map have actually been mentioned. a couple of screenshots and some guys word that they're actually working on them pfft. We had that sort of news for years regarding EDGE and look how long that has taken. We could still be 2 years or more away from their release.
And what about the P47?

DCS Kickstarter
Wags July 2014 "In this July 2014 update, the primary news is in regards to the restructured backer rewards. After a careful review of the older system under RRG, we found it financially unattainable."
Wags October 2017 "the investment vs. generated revenue has been excellent for the World War II aircraft. In fact, the P-51D Mustang has twice the cost effectiveness of the A-10C Warthog."

What's the good news? WW2 is still be worked on.

What's the bad news? They don't have a magic wand to instantly create content for those with no clue on how much work is required to create a new graphic engine, WW2 content along with modern content.

So, you guys do anything to get the game engine shored up? I'm hoping for air to ground radar sometime this century. Oh, and SLI is still broken for some (but oddly not all) nVidia users.

Looking forward to the F-5!

Might also be looking forward to the Spit, though it's so damned long ago that I was allowed to keep 2 of the 6 planes I payed for that I'm not certain if I picked it.

Why? Not a combat jet. Not really. Just another Bloody trainer.
