We have updated the Panzer IV Ausf H for the next version of Aces High. We will also be introducing a new earlier Panzer IV variant, the Ausf F. The new variant can be outfitted as an F1 with the short barreled 75mm KwK37 L/24 or as an F2 with the more powerful KwK40 L/43.
Greebo made both of these skins. The Ausf F skin is a tank from the 14th Panzer Division operating in Southern Russia in 1942. The Ausf H paint scheme is from the 2nd Panzer Division based in France in the Spring of 1944.

We're completing out the P-40 Warhawk lineup in Aces High with the P-40N. This will give us a good coverage of the P-40 variants and make the Special Events guys and skinners especially happy, not to mention the Aussies and Kiwis.
The P-40N was the last production version of the P-40. It was also the most produced variant in the family with over 5200 built. Cactuskooler again made this very cool skin. The paint scheme of this aircraft is "Lucky", flown by Lt. Richard West of the 35th Fighter Squadron of the 8th Fighter Group.

Introducing the M-18 Hellcat, the first tank destroyer in Aces High coming soon. The M-18 Hellcat was the fastest tracked AFV of WW2 with a top speed in excess of 50 mph. In addition to its high speed it has respectable firepower from its 76mm M1A1 - the same main gun used on the M4A3(76). The downside is that it is extremely vulnerable to enemy fire with its open top turret and thin armor. The smart player will avoid slugging it out with tanks and instead use speed and cover to outflank and ambush its opponents.
