Randy, I've been buying your products since I first discovered them in hobby shop way back in the mid 70's. I've seen your line go from a few items to the large selection you have today. That said, I have a few humble suggestions for you to consider. First, make the add-on and/or stand accessories for all the equipment. By that I mean sandbags, crates, boxes, barrels, toolboxes, tools, gas (gerry) cans, tents, etc. that we can add to your great vehicals to give them that battlefield lived in look. Nothing says more than tactical objective such as a supply dump filled with these items nor a group of vehicals filled with them rolling down battlefield torn road. Nor, for that matter, does it show a combet proven unit more than by how much personal and/or add gear they carry on their individual vehicals after long months in combat. Second, take the already made hulls of many of your combat tanks and make the support weapons that many nations mounted on them. This would intale a minimal of redesign work, but yield some very needed new products. I have in mind the Japanese Self-Propelled Support Weapsons of WWII for one. Third, do the same with the ships, so as to give us the badly neede Japanese troop and cargo ships, as well as the warships coversions. I have in mind the Japanese super carrier Shinaro for one. Fourth, why not let someone sponser a variation of a design by providing design funds, such as was done with the F16 variation of some years ago. Finally, why not bring back the XM1 Tank design of some years ago. Many have asked for it and it could be added to SiFi lineup or, better yet, start a new line with it of What-ifs. Just my humble suggestions, but maybe it can lead to renewed growth for you and your company.

I'm not sure how popular modern aircraft are, but the Soviet "Flanker" (aka Su-30,33,34,35 and 37) and "Fullback" (Su-34) would be awesome.

Randy, I would 2nd the Russian Su-34 Fullback along with Su-35UB Flanker dual seat fighter/trainer. Either one of these would compliment CinC's amazing Mig-29 very nicely! The Su-34 would be at the 1st spot on my wish list. As we know, the Su's that are offered by our overseas friends are little more then clump's of lead and I don't think GHQ will be producing anything from the Su family of aircraft anytime soon. I think CinC would make a nice impact in the wargaming world with anything from the Su family! A few other aircraft I would love to see are the A-7A Corsair II", SU-17 "Fitter", Harrier V/STOL and lastly the Jaguar GA (UK & FR). The A-7A and Jaguar fall into the 2nd and 3rd spot's on my wish list! Hopefully we'll see all of these in a production status again sometime soon! There are many more things I would love to see in production, from tank's and AFV's to aircraft. Let's hope Randy is working on several things that will not only blow our door's off but, also blow away the competition! Thanks for some awesome model's.

Chris, If the Jaguar was in stock, I would be all over it but, its not. Unless you know some super uber secret to make the purchase icon appear! :) -Jim

Another note about modern aircraft games. The company that makes Check Your 6 (CY6) has in development a Jet Fighter combat game using similar rules. They won't be out until 2010 though. Got this info from one of their play testers at HAVOV in Massachusetts (thanks Pete!).
