Bremspropeller Posted July 10, 2020 Posted July 10, 2020 Using the bubble is a good choice, unless you're into the bondage-dungeon feeling of the P-39. I'm wondering, whether we'll get the three- or four-bladed prop. My vote would be three blades for looks and for setting it a bit more apart from the Tempest...
Vortice Posted July 10, 2020 Posted July 10, 2020 More blades is more betterer. Everyone knows that. 1

Four blades were required for the enlarged upgraded tailplane and for carrying 1000lb bombs. Edited July 10, 2020 by Talon_

Blitzen Posted July 11, 2020 Posted July 11, 2020 (edited) I think someone should do a non-binding poll :Car door or bubble. I’d vote car door or make it an option.I feel the bubble cockpit interior will be quite similar to the Tempest cockpit we already have, but that’s just me... Edited July 11, 2020 by Blitzen 4

It'd be good to include a picture and pros/cons for each. Honestly, I suspect that development is probably too far along to influence things at this point... but it'd still be interesting to discuss. I do wonder if there is an argument for an early Typhoon and an early Spit IX at some point (e.g. closer to their introduction dates). It'd be fun to catch that very brief period in 1942 where there were still a few Bf-109F in France for them to encounter!
Lusekofte Posted July 12, 2020 Posted July 12, 2020 I like odd planes. This is why I would like to have the alternative of the one chosen by the devs. Always it seems. Tiffy will not be like US planes, (“look at me, I have rockets and bombs, I am so good”) It will be either bombs or rockets. I do not mind if I cannot bring a long 1000 lb bomb. I am with Blitzen, I like to have a different version to what we have

Hirachi Posted July 13, 2020 Posted July 13, 2020 Would the Pilot be on full oxygen mask all the time since the Typhoon was know to get exhaust fumes into the cockpit. "The first production Typhoons began to enter RAF service with No. 56 Squadron in September 1941. They were operational from May 1942. But soon after the deliveries it became apparent that the Typhoon still had flaws, some serious and some minor. Fatigue failure at a rear fuselage joint was responsible for the loss of the complete tail units of an alarming number of planes. Carbon monoxide leaking into the cockpit was blamed for a fatal crash in November 1941. Though the cockpit sealing was improved, the fumes were never fully eradicated, and Typhoon pilots had to fly with oxygen masks in place." https://warfarehistorynetwork.com/2016/11/15/scourge-of-falaise-the-hawker-typhoon/
