We need more A6M Zeros?
- Yes
- No
The A6M is Japan’s most iconic aircraft, the Zero, which had several variants in World War II. Of these, two variants are currently playable in Enlisteed, the A6M-2, Model 21 (which was historically used in the attack on Pearl Harbor) and the A6M-3 (Model 32?) as a premium aircraft.
In addition to these, it would be worth bringing the following variation: A6M-5c Model 52c, which could be a technological next step, since the 2x7.7 mm machine guns were replaced with 3x13.2 mm machine guns, the 2x20 mm cannon was left, and the aircraft received 4 unguided rockets instead of small bombs. And its speed has also increased slightly, to 565 km/h.
Then there’s the A6M-8 variant, which had a speed of 573 km/h and, if true, was capable of carrying a 500 kg aerial bomb.
I think these two variants could be good as premium, event, or battlepass aircraft, but they would actually fit well into the research tree as well.
