G4M1- Model 11 - BETA
Category C (AI)
CODE NAME BETTY
CFS3 - V2.83.59

The BETTY is what we call a Category C release
Category A - User Flyable, Multi-Res, Textures, Damage Boxes, User Cockpit,
Gunner positions
Category B - User Flyable, Multi-Res, Textures, Damage Boxes, User Cockpit
Category C - AI Only, Multi-Res, Textures, Damage Boxes
Category D - Test aircraft
The system (conceived by the Ground Crew) is designed to make it easier to
developers to bring new CFS3 aircraft to flying status. For some aircraft
there may not be any interest in other than an AI version.
AvHistory 1% Aircraft General Statement and Installation Instructions
It is the intention of the AvHistory 1% project to over time build the most accurate aircraft that the CFS3 software can support. The development of a 1% aircraft requires specific and in many cases dramatic changes to the aircraft delivered with the MS game as well as the addition of aircraft built from the ground up by third parties which were never included in the original MS game. We believe that because the AvHistory 1% aircraft are materially different they should not be mixed with "box stock" aircraft in online combat.
No AvHistory 1% aircraft maybe provided for download from any site without express written consent of AvHistory. Additionally, direct linking to our download site is forbidden.
G4M1-11 BETTY - BETA Catagory C
This aircraft was built from scratch by Stephan Seybolt with textures by Tomas Oszlar. SARGE created the 1% files using V-2.83.59 of the AvHistory development system.
Tomas has painted this aircraft to represent the G4M1 11 T1-323 of Kokutai 705’s first Chutai. This plane was shot down by P-38 Lightnings on April 18th, 1943 near Buin , Bougainville killing Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto. Piloting the plane when it was shot down was Warrant Officer Takeo Koyani.
The G4M2 was the main 'heavy' bomber of the Japanese Navy during World War II. Its long range was achieved by depriving the aircraft of armor while providing it with huge non-selfsealing fuel tanks in the wings. The Betty was extremely vulnerable, tending to go up in flames when hit. This led to its receiving the nicknames "One-Shot Lighter" and "Flying Cigar".
The Betty's of the 22nd Air Flotilla on 10 December 1941, three days after Pearl Harbor, sank the new battleship Prince of Wales and the old battlecruiser Repulse off the coast of Malaya.
The first attacks on Allied forces at Guadalcanal were by G4Ms flying from Rabaul. In an attack on the US transport ships by 26 Betty's at least 17 were shot down by AAA.
By early 1943 the Japanese Navy had developed techniques for night torpedo attack and Betty's sank the heavy cruiser Chicago. The G4M2 flew in night attacks until almost the end of the war and in 1944 a Betty torpedoed the carrier Intrepid.
