While the A-26B solidnose attack bomber was more numerous in the European Theatre in the last months of WWII, the C model, glass-nosed, medium bomber was also in high demand to replace the aging A-20s.  And we've got one under construction now...  Roll Eyes

I've just uploaded the new TR_A-26C glass-nose medium bomber.  She should be available by morning.  Smiley

She's wearing her 1945 European Theatre skin.  Smiley

Among the interesting features of the aircraft is the unique panel by Mike Eustace, which sports many features including an autopilot and GPS, as well as a functioning level bombsight (See Panel Instructions and Bombardier's Guide in aircraft folder).  Smiley

She also has a rear gunsight....rear view in 2D panel, with which it is possible to neutralize an attacking fighter...with a little practice.  Smiley
