I’d sure love to nail a stringbag of an aircraft with a 37mil HE round.

Instantly reminded me of the pigeon flight mission in BF1

I would add it but the issue is that I cannot find any information on it’s performance. Only thing I could find is that on it’s only flight it reached an altitude of 25ft before rolling over and crashing.

Yeah it’s a shame, I’m going to keep an eye out for any information on it’s performance and if I do then I’ll add it in.

Oh my god, it’s so ugly, I love this

Letord Let spam, will that make it the 2nd largest WW1 prop family?

Final SPAD plane? SPAD S.XX. It was developed during WW1

As for Nieuport, there was Nieuport 28 and NiD 29 prototype was tested in 1918. Do not know if it was armed though.

More possible planes:
Salmson-Moineau S.M.1, can be armed with machine guns and 37 mm cannons.

Salmson-Moineau S.M. 2, got another engine in place of forward facing gunnder and armed with what I assume is cannon in the back.

Salmson 2 A2, reconnaissance biplane armed with up to 3 mgs. 1 forward and 2 in the back.

Salmson 3 C1, single seat fighter version of Salmson 2 armed with 2 machine guns

France was considered a pioneer in aircraft during WW1 but had issues with industrial output concerning them. France would invest heavily in USA aircraft firms though the mid war era so a lot of aircraft companies owe there existence to France as without France most would have gone belly up in the Great Depression.

Shamelessly adding my suggestions here, but I made a few.

SPAD XIII :

Nieuport 28 (US suggestion but it works for both countries) :

Nieuport NiD 29 :

Dufaux C.2. It had engine mounted in the middle and armed with single Lewis MG.

gaijin keeps all ww1 vehicles on their paid copy vr game

Nieuport monoplane, found it on internet under the name Nieuport Madon. Armed with either 1 or 2 machine guns

Another version perhaps is with single shot buckshot cannon but I am unsure if it was mounted during WW1, if it was I suggest putting it as a nice premium/event addition. Georges Madon is standing infront of the plane.

No way.

We can saw pilots in half now

Add it pls
