The Kamov 52 is a two-seat version of the KA-50. Crew is seated side by side.

Yes, the helicopter is wider because the pilots sit side by side. There are also different versions of Apache, Kiowa and Black Hawk from GHQ.

Sorry, Brutzel, I thought you were asking about something you weren't sure of rather than complaining about the lack of aircraft versions.

Not the complaint of lack of aircraft versions. I want to buy the KA-52. :) :)

I'd like to see the release of a "cargo" blister for WW2 micronauts.

Take the excellent Sherman/Truck sprues from the liberty ship blister and add one or two new variants with crates, containers, railroad cars, locomotives, semi trucks etc....

It would go a long way to add some vareity to that huge fleet of Liberties and Hog Islanders. :)

Excellent idea! Would also work well with LSTs and other gator navy stuff.

Id like to see Bundeswehr MG 3s either as an accessory pack or included with the vehicles that typically mount them, Fuchs, Jaguar, Leopard, etc.

There are more vehicle AA MGs than M2 .50 cals and 12.7 DSHKs.
Tactics are the opinion of the senior officer present.
