Hah. Yeah that’s pretty cool. I’m a fan of the Me262 personally

I hope to see more creativity and variety in the whole Eastern Block theme,
otherwise it won’t be able to compete much with the already superb PCS theme
and nascent 3vil theme. Thus far, everybody seems to have been focusing on
the “cheap” aspect of Russian weaponry. However, as cheap as Comm-Bloc
hardware was, it did give the West some fears. The Mi-24 Hind and Su-27
Flanker might have been designed with economy in mind, but they were robust,
practical weapons that gave their NATO contemporaries a run for their money.

Oh yeah, I would like to see more EB creations as well. Rick Hallman has been
talking about making a Hind inspired EB ship. Hey Rick, get the lead out!
