Thanks for letting me know. I was considering watching it, but now I’m scratching that off my list of things to watch. Now I feel bad for Leslie Odom Junior for doing this.

Bristol 142/149/160 Blenheim (uk standard day-bomber)
Cant z.1007bis alcione (3-engine italian heavy fast bomber)Some of the most attractive 2-engine US designs are missing:
Martin 187 baltimore
douglas a-20 havoc
douglas b-26 invaderThe complete absence of the most important french types is conspicious: Potez, Bloch, Leo, etc.

Favorite WW2 Bomber?
How about SAAB 18? That bomber will easily give you a penalty of 3 ipc if you dare to invade neutral Sweden.

Col Cool, you should make a poll question.

For me…it would have to be the B-24 Liberator…my grandfather served as a gunner on one in the European Theater

I like the stuka because of the siren noise.

For Heavy bomber, I am going to have to side with the Avro Lancaster over the B-29. Even though the B-29 was more advanced and could out preform the Lancaster, it was almost too advanced and suffered early on from many malfunctions, this counts against it. It was also not nearly as versatile as the Lancaster which had many variants including para drop resupply, airborne assault, heavy bombing using the Tall Boy bomb, Dam busting, incendiary bombing of cities, ELINT, Electronic Warfare, and Radar equipped versions to lead and cover the strike group.
Both were modified and used in Korea (the Lancaster as the Avro Lincoln)For a Ground Attack aircraft, no question, the IL-2 Sturmovik.

This is not really about what you think is the best aircraft of WW2, but what your favorite aircraft of WW2 is. Discuss why you like each aircraft and maybe some nice lively debates will spring up.
