Many of the Polish planes we’ve modeled were never produced in significant numbers or were still in the prototyping phase when the Germans invaded. These include the unique gull-winged aircraft that Poland developed in the early 1930’s, one of the most advanced fighter designs in the world at that time. In this release we’ve added a new set of unit models representing the Polish Air Force.
MAKING HISTORY THE SECOND WORLD WAR HISTORIC NATIONS UPDATE
The next update we will be releasing unit models for the Czech Air Force. We’ve also included a Polish Seaplane Torpedo Bomber unit model that was unfinished at the time of this Summer’s Polish Air Force update.Īfter several comments about the American AI’s trigger happy response to Germany taking control of Denmark and as a result, gaining Iceland and Greenland, we have made changes to lower the chance of a war response in this case. But the costs were high as almost 95% of the Dutch pilots were lost. Although many aircraft were destroyed on the ground, the outnumbered Dutch units scored significant victories against the German Luftwaffe. The infamous Fokker aircraft manufacturer designed and produced several respectable fighter and bomber planes that saw action in the German invasion of the Netherlands. The latest update to the game now adds unique models for the Dutch national air force. Also, we eventually want to expand the under-represented jet era models, notably Soviet aircraft. There are plans to add Swedish and Australian aircraft at some point but the priorities will likely shift towards gameplay features. In the next update we'll complete the regional power air unit model additions with entries from the Yugoslavian and Romanian Air Forces. A portion of these were sold to the new Israeli state forming that nations first fighter squadron.
The models also include the Avia S-99, a Czech Messerschmitt Bf 109 post-war fighter constructed with parts and plans left over from Luftwaffe aircraft production during the war. Some units were in the proto-type stage when the German occupation began, ending further development. In this release we’ve added a set of historical models representing the Czechoslovak Air Force of the 1930s. The Munich Agreement forced the Czechs to surrender without a fight so we can never know how this force would have fared against the German Luftwaffe. Using the large heavy machinery and military industrial factories in Bohemia, Czechoslovakia was able to produce a well respected force in regards to personnel, material and equipment. With no ports or ships, they viewed the air as their sea. As a small, landlocked nation surrounded by hostile neighbours, Czechoslovakia placed a high priority on developing a modern aviation industry.
