The Nazis entered this war under the rather childish delusion that they were going to bomb everyone else, and nobody was going to bomb them. They sowed the wind, and now they are going to reap the whirlwind.

So I changed the single Luther line to a BF110 production and the very next day the AI puts it back over to Me410a!
Grrrr...
I don't want the 410a because it can only reach 30K.....but now I have checked both Wiki and militaryfactory.com and they give 33k and 32,808 feet.
WW2aircraft.net also lists the 32,800 feet for A and B models so I think maybe the stats need changing on the database. Then I probably would want the 410a!

To prevent AI managing production you must set industrial control to human.

Be careful with operational altitudes and ceilings data. Also the game tracks altitude/performance curves which can skew your perception of actual flight characteristics. I do want to list these performance envelopes in the game somehow so players can finally evaluate it without guessing.

33k (10 km) is the normal service ceiling for a Me 410A at 9.5t weight, it's not the max ceiling.
Fully loaded (11.3t, max take-off weight) service ceiling is 8400m

Is it not possible to put the R1 extra 20mm cannon underwing gondolas on Axis minor allies now? No option to add them to 109/190 units in foreign service. Cannot remember if this was always the case.
