Shouldn't be there a Klimov engine modification for the P-40E-1? There's a historical records showing some P-40Es Allison replaced with the Klimov

Type Of Improvement: gameplay / historical 

 

Explanation of Proposals:

Hello Jason and team, I dont post on forum often but I have been flying p40 a lot more and enjoying it! It would be amazing to add modification to the existing p40E (the battle of moscow) so that it is in more competitive In 1942 onwards(other fronts).

 

The possibility of lend lease p40K/others that were used with better engine time limits would bring more life to the fighter later in war and be competitive. The engine time limits of allison engine is similar to p39 so maybe it may be easier to model over. There is also a additional tail fillet in the p40K that was meant to help with stability.

 

Benefits: more situations where p40 is usable as a fighter, better p40 gameplay when 109F4 and later planes introduced and makes p40 faster ground strike aircraft.

 

Thank you for taking the time to read the post.?

Panda.

I forgot about earlier design P40 sent such as Tomahawks which are also beauties! They are quite different so possibly a collector? Compared to E/K and later variants...

I have been hoping from day one to get one of those in the game.

I know but still, I prefer an early P40 that works less good in Russia than no early P40 at all.

And if ever we get to the Pacific, we'll use it there as it indeed works better there.

 

Have a nice day.

Ooh, Battle (Siege) of Leningrad!  A 3 year campaign including Spanish and Finnish forces.  Add that to my wish list.
