silverdevil Posted July 18, 2022 Posted July 18, 2022 there is a mission i have. not sure where it came from. it has mustangs providing CAS. i was flying f-86. mig-15s are chasing the mustangs all over. its pretty funny because they have a hard time getting them.

The F4U-4 and F4U-5 were there. I know this because I was in VF-32. That is the squadon the upcoming film 'Devotion' is based on.

Oh yeah, about 7 years earlier. I beleive. I would really like an F4U-4 or -5. I already have the restricted F4U-4, -4B manual. I alos have an 800+ page illustrated parts breakdown. This variant had two engine options as well. They had the R-2800-18W and the -42W. The one we are getting is the -8W if I am not mistaken.
