Other then the finnish plane(s) having the wrong insignia (though for obvious reason the correct insignia might be hard to find) looks nice.

For the Finns I have a Ms406 and a Brewster Buffalo. Both are good but the Buffalo is kind of rare.

Btw in case you or anyone else is wondering the correct emblem for Finnish Air Force at the time was a light blue swastika on white backround, with the current emblem (the which is in the planes) adopted in 1945 for rather obvious reason even if the orginal insignia had nothing to do with Germany (it was the emblem of the swedish count who gifted the Finnish air force with first planes they used).

Aware of all of that. The emblem was probably changed to the modern one on the minis for the same reasons the original was changed.

most likely as it's near impossible to depictions of finnish planes with the orginal emblem unless they're historical depictions.

A note the Finnish planes are piloted by ace (Brewster) and veteran (Ms406) pilots. And they get boni when outnumbered too. This means that they are quite good. For those wondering the pilot skill level from best to worst is Ace, Veteran, Rookie, Poor. If anyone wants to see any cards of a plane just let me know.
