Great video,thanks for your work on the PTO project

I was hoping we would get a kittyhawk p-40,are you going to change some more damage profiles on the jap planes,ie the Nell bomber

an improved p-40 that is,seems underpowered to me!

The P40, that is only available in the E version, is very importent and has to be flown by the (human) player, because of that it is not possible to do major modifications.

But everybody can reduce the fuel for short range missions e.g: Kokoda Track or intercept missions over Port Moresby.

By default the tank is full for long range missions to Rabaul "fuel": 1.00

I think "fuel": 0.50 could work for Port Moresby defensive missions and short range Kokoda Track missions to Imitra Ridge, Brigade Hill, Tempelton's Crossing.

But this can be further optimized.

 

For the other (german/russian) japanese planes, that are in first line AI controlled, I plan to modify similar as I did with the FW190:

-Removal or reducing of armor

-and maybe adaptions of performance by adding / removing weight and air drag

I will do that at least for the early standard bomber like the Nell, Betty, Val

For the Nell you can do directly this:
