New Aircraft in 2020

In OBD product page - WOFF PE features para 28 mentions new aircraft coming in 2020. Any ideas what these new aircraft might be?

OBD likes to surprise us with new things so I can only speculate on possible types that might show up in the future...perhaps the:

(a) Morane Bullet
(b) Longhorn
(c) Pfalz Dr.1
(d) Siemens-Schuckert D.1 (Nieup. 16/17 imitation)
(e) an early pusher/bomber...such as the AGO C.1

The above thoughts are strictly my own. (Although we have a lovely selection of aircraft already in WOFF.)

Be nice to see a Dolphin. Or maybe they could help even the balance of power with an O/400.

Basically anything with roundels will do.

Well they'd have to be the Bristol M1, Vickers Gunbus, DH9, Dolphin and HP O/400. And the Longhorn, Shorthorn, Avro 504 and Taube for training. The Bullet would be nice too and a Bleriot XI. And the Zeppelin-Staaken R.VI. But we all really want a flyable Zeppelin airship with workable gunposts. And the Felixstowe and Macchi M.5 flying boats.

Thank you VonS. Yes the amount of aircraft currently will keep me busy for a very long time! More early era aircraft will allow WOFF to cover even more - a time period of the war that has been over looked. Excellent

Agreed, if a Bleriot XI and Taube should pop up eventually in WOFF, early-war campaigns will become even more thorough. WOFF already has world-class campaigning from what I've been able to experience so far. The only other simulator that has a good variety of early-war aircraft is First Eagles 2 (fully modded) - but be aware that FE2 excels more at single missions, or single "rolling" missions, than it does at campaign systems. For long and varied campaigns, WOFF is the gold standard.

Any of the planes in red found in the "manual squad deployment" area would be fine by me...many are already mentioned in this and other threads.

I'm with you, Jeff! I AM hoping to fly a Dolphin one day.

Anything during early period would flesh out the game or listed in red.

My preference would be for aircraft to fill the gaps in various squadrons in WOFF, but then I believe that the devs are looking to completely fill the gaps in the squadrons eventually when they have enough time to do this.

The game is crying out for more German two seaters between 1915 and 1917. Having only the Aviatik until April 1916 when the Roland turns up is not accurate at all and makes flying Entente scout missions between those dates a bit 'samey'.

Whilst no one expects every German two seater type. A couple more would make for a much fuller and more historically accurate experience. Giving you more options as a German pilot too.

So. The Albatros B/C two seaters were very prevalent and are a must in my opinion.

Perhaps the AEG multi gun aircraft as well.

I think French two seaters need fleshing out too to improve the experience.

Voisons would be my weapon of choice there.

The Morane Bullet would be my third and final choice at this point.

Here's hoping.

I definitely hope we’ll get some trainers for the more in-depth campaign. I also hope we’ll get more French planes so that French squadrons are less problematic. I’d love flying boats too, being an RNAS fanboy, but I doubt they’re a priority.

I'd like to fly a "hair raising" solo photo recon or arty mission in WOFF. It hasn't changed much since the days of OFF. My wish list would be:

(1) real photo recons with working camera
(2) real arty spotting using some type of grid to direct artillery fire and watching the results
