How is the b26 not in the game?

[RAM AIR IV]

How? It was such widely used I'm surprised it's not in game

Lol. I actually had to look that one up because I actually had no idea what it was. B24, P51, P47, Fw, Bf, Yak, and the ILs are far more iconic than that thing.

Iconic aircraft?

I can barely even hear its name. Not much are showcased in documentaries compared to other planes mentioned above.

B-26 is a great plane and I do hope we get to see it someday.
Only problem is it is so similar to the B-25 in terms of play style and meta, that I think it’s on the backburner in terms of development.

However, one of the big things is the B-26 could carry torps, and with naval moving along I think our chances of seeing the B-26 go up.

The Tu-14 is very similar to the IL-28, except it can carry torps, and it came out right as naval was announced. So it stands to reason that as ships are continuously developed, torpedo aircraft will appear more as well.

The only Docs I've seen it mentioned basically mentionined it as a flying coffin because of the high landing speeds. But you know, 90s History Channel.

Of course, IRL it was great simply because it could go so fast. I personally would love the B-26 as well! It's one of those types that does need more recognition in the outside world. I recall they played a pretty vital part in the Battle of Monte Casino.

Of course, there are plenty of well used aircraft/variants of aircraft that haven't appeared yet in basically all of the trees.

B-26 Marauder was a widely used medium bomber. It's not in the game because it's very similar to the B-25 and would have a very similar play style. Devs have said that it's not a priority to add it, but that they very well may do so in the future.

u guys are quite dumb, its not in game because it is a better version of the B-25 which is a pretty dumb reason tbh. Its faster, carries a better payload and has better defensive and offensive armament. its fast speed suggests that it would be quite pretty good at climbing making it harder for fighters in realistic battles to intercept. bottom line is that this aircraft should be in the game and a premium of rank IV.
