Developer news on aircraft?

What news on the air element of ToW? IMHO we need a few things in this dept & it would be good to get some feedback on this list as a starter:_

Additional aircraft Stuka, A20 (RAF, USAAF, & VVS skins), & Typhoon are IMO the most important.

Rockets capable of killing tanks on IL2, P47, & Typhoon.

Dive bombing from Stukas etc that kill tanks

At the moment the strafing attacks seem a little lacklustre using what IRL would be secondary armament. Whats needed is a primary attack with rockets/bombs followed by a secondary strafing attack with mg/cannon.

Also fixed AA guns would be a bonus especially if they were dual mode i.e. AA & AT.

Sneaksie,

Good news! To be sure rockets and bombs aren't overmodeled in general effectiveness terms, please see JasonC's numerous posts on CMAK and CMBB, as well as the extensive discussion of the Ju-87/G and other tankbusting aircraft, where some real surprises await, to include the fact (page 7) that the Ju-87/Gs carried twice as much ammo as was previously known and that the gun rivaled the A-10's GAU-8 in energy, resulting in a whopping 140mm of penetration (firing PzGr40) at typical open fire range.

There's a sister thread to this one on the CMAK Forum.
