Winkysmith Posted July 1, 2021 Posted July 1, 2021 Today I was thinking. Ground-based RADARs have just been added, and two planes that were used as night fighters are coming. It may be coincidence that these two things are happening at the same time, but it may indicate that the devs are planning to do RADAR-equipped night-fighter variants of the Ju-88C and/or the Mosquito. Just a passing thought, though rather unlikely, I think. Anyway, if anyone has any input on the topic, I’d be interested to see what you think. 1 1
BlitzPig_EL Posted July 1, 2021 Posted July 1, 2021 Seeing as no British heavy bombers are slated for introduction, I seriously doubt that dedicated night fighters with on board radar are in the future either.

Exactly my reasoning. Perhaps I should have put that in the original post.
Panzerlang Posted July 1, 2021 Posted July 1, 2021 Mossies vs Ju88s, both with radar, could be interesting.
Guest deleted@219798 Posted July 1, 2021 Posted July 1, 2021 It would be good to have a Battle of the Night Skies. I've read a fair bit about the German night fighters, how they were guided to the RAF bomber stream, then the fighter's onboard radar took over. Could be something really special. Since IC doesn't seem to want make 4 engine planes, unfortunately probably will never happen.

I suppose a heavy bomber (even an AI one) would take up a lot of development time, and there really aren’t enough of us night-fighter types to warrant a decent return for the company. It still would be good though. Edited July 1, 2021 by Winkysmith
