Focusing on missing airframes here.
For example, there are no F-86D/Ls in game, but the airframe is not substantially different from the F-86K, so I have not included it, even though the armament is significantly different.
F-86H is included due to significant differences in the fuselage.
Exactly… for example… I didn’t include F-86D/L because the F-86K is already in game, although systems are different. Also didn’t include F-15EX because F-15E already in game, despite a huge difference in capabilities. See details in the original post.
Sweet! Here’s some I can think of:
Latvia’s VEF I-16:

Note - This is NOT the same aircraft what is USSRs I-16

Race to design a lightweight fighter aircraft began in Latvia in 1938, starting with VEF I-15a and VEF I-15b. The main designer was Kārlis Irbītis - head of the design office of the aviation division of the VEF (Valsts Elektrotehniskā Fabrika), which was electro-technical factory in Riga.
Design work of the VEF I-16 began in late 1938. The aircraft was a single-seat, low wing monoplane with fixed undercarriage. The landing g…

History: Estonia wanted to modernise it’s air force after the Spanish civil war, looking towards potential aircraft like the Fokker DXX.I, G.I and Supermarine Spitfires (using the funds raised by selling Bristol Bulldogs and Potez 25s + acting as transit country for Czechoslovakian planes going to the Spanish republican government). However none of which entered Estonian service. Instead, Estonia sought to modernise it’s air fleet by …

Show/Hide After the Korean War ended, US aid to the Korean Navy was very passive. Of course, it was difficult to expect support from the United States to secure aircraft for the Navy, and the Navy Yard had a budget only for ship repair items, and the Navy Yard Aviation Team, which produced aircraft such as Haechi-ho, did not have an official budget related to aircraft development and research.
As the naval aircraft production project fell into difficulties due to…

Australia’s Nomad

Introduction
In 1965 development began at Government Aircraft Factories for a new utility aircraft. Originally envisioned as a single engined turbo prop, after contacting the Army for feedback in 1966 GAF were advised a twin engine was preferable based on combat experience in Vietnam. A redesign, now known as Project N began, aimed at both domestic use and the export market. By 1970 it became apparent the program would not get off the ground without financial assistance, so …

Romanian IAR-47
poll
Description/History:
The IAR-47 was a prototype observation/recon light bomber aircraft developed from 1941-1942 by Industria Aeronautică Română as a potential replacement for their older IAR-37, 38, and 39 aircraft. The The IAR-47s design is a sort of hybrid of the IAR-80, and IAR-39 with its fuselage being directly based on the IAR-39s, however unlike the IAR-39, it lacked observers side windows, and having only two crewmembers instead of 3. The IAR-47 had a similar low-winged monoplane …

Introduction:
The Zmaj R-1 is a twin-engine bomber-reconnaissance plane prototype made by the Zmaj company for the Royal Yugoslav Air Force in 1940. It was the heaviest armed of the three pre-war Yugoslav bombers with 20mm cannons and machine guns, as well as 1600 kg of bombs in total. The R-1 was damaged in test flights and did not see service in Yugoslavia.

USSR lacks researchable hydroplanes. There are many possibilities. I hope at least two of these will be added one day…
Service Aircraft
BE-4 (KOR-2), which appears in game on soviet union ship.
Be-10 (jet hydroplane with bombs)
Be-12 (prop hydroplane that carried a nuke)
Be-42 (largest jet hydroplane or something)
Experimental
ANT-22 (big two-hull prop hydroplane that carried 3 torpedoes)
DB-3TP (DB-3 but hydroplane)
VVA-14 (Bartini’s ekranoplan)
Beriev R-1 (its Be-10, but prototype)
In Naval, USSR really needs some hydroplanes… Especially as it lacks carrier-based aircrafts.
since were talking about baltic planes dont forget about ANBO

brazilian A-29 Super Tucano and T-27 Tucano
Some missing Canadian ones are:
FDB-1 prototype
CL-41R/G prototype & CL-41G-5(CL-41G Tebuan) serive aircraft with Malaysia. (they are sligthly differnt varints, with it bing only prototypes for one nation and a service aircraft for the other)
Vancover IIS service aircraft
CL-84-1 protoype.
CP-107 service aircaft.
Everything here bult the CL-41G is Canada only (as pointed out Malayia bought a varint of the CL-41G). these are the ones I can think of.
True, you can probably get a good amount of aircraft from the ANBO IV family via
ANBO IV (Prototype with Wasp engine)
If we really want to stretch it, the prototype had wooden propellers before shifting to metal with a very slight performance difference so at a reach can be a folder or premium aircraft. Same with the all 3 production aircraft likely having at least one airframe equipped with just one rear gun instead of 2.
P-35A? It’s not the J9 early but it might be too similar…
