Su-2 as TBD Devastator

Su-2 reskinned as a TBD Devastator.

I found the lack of this plane to be a major problem when creating early Pacific Naval scenarios.

The Devastator was not a star performer...Slow, antiquated, short on range and lacking armour, barely able to take off with its torpedo.

(Infact its main purpose seems to have been to iterate to the USN that they needed an effective Torpedo Bomber !).

The Su-2 is not a perfect substitute but seems the closest plane ingame in look and performance (especially when set to 'Rookie' with the minimum fuel load.)

The Su-2 cannot carry torpedoes (but 2x250kilo bombs is similar to the 1000lb bombload of the Devastator and is possibly more effective than the 'dud' MkXIII torpedoes that the US navy had during early 42.)

The Su-2 is slow and relatively unarmoured (like the Devastator) and has light guns, 3 Shvaks, which is similar to the Devastators (f) .50 & (rear).30.

Although unable to land on a carrier ,the Su-2 seems far closer ingame to this plane than the TBF-1 and for coops and offline missions, this skin may prove useful to others as it has to me.
