real deal :

TBF-1 Avenger early in 1942. Note the red spot centered in the US national insignia, which was removed just before the Battle of Midway

It's terrible if it's actually supposed to be a TBF (wings and H stab are wrong, as is fuselage... Oh, the gear are in the wrong place, too

Looks like the roundels have the Star with a red circle in the middle. That was eliminated before TBFs ever saw combat (for fear of what happened in this thread, misidentification with japanese aircraft

)

Anyone got a better 3d model of an Avenger ? with the rear belly gun ?

this also goes for any and all US planes one is likely to encounter in the PTO.

we should make a new plane, IJN for instance, and set up a US 3d model to simulate "friendly fire" ?

Yes Alex is becomeing quite the 3D modeler.
Now he just needs to get the models to someone to do the imports.
Or get busy and do it himself.

I'm running TMO 2.0 and I think I've only seen Helldivers and Buffaloes on the US flattops. A bit of an immersion killer as I don't think Buffaloes were ever a carrier aircraft (but I'm not sure on that) whereas the Helldiver wasn't introduced until a bit later.

It would definitely be nice to see the appropriate aircraft on the flattops (as well as in the air).

Nice work Alex! There's hope yet, LOL.
