Eidos just fired off a press release, scoring a direct hit on our inbox, informing that Battlestations: Pacific will receive two resupply convoys in the form of the Mustang Pack and the Carrier Battle Map Pack. The first pack is available for download today and offers six new units (including the P-51 Mustang bomber, US Navy Alaska Class battleship, and Japanese Yamato Class battleship), along with 18 different pieces of nose art to be used online or off, and will set players back a cool 160
($2). A more substantial DLC offering will come with the Carrier Battle Map Pack, a collection of four new maps that will be playable across all five multiplayer modes. These maps consist of locales such as the Philippine Islands, the Leyte Gulf, and Aleutian Islands, and will fetch a premium price of 800
($10) when the pack releases on July 23.

uh, the P-51 wasn't a bomber, it was used as air support during runs over Germany.
In fact, with how sparsely it was used in the Pacific, you gotta wonder why they're adding it

Too classic a plane to leave out I guess.

There were tons of P-51s flown in the Pacific Theater -- most famously as long-range escorts for B-29s. They were also used in ground attack roles quite a bit (even though they weren't as fit for the role as the under appreciated P-38) and did so even as late as the Korean War.

Don't buy this game . It is truly an expensive piece of crap.
