The B-52 Stratofortress is too modern for D-Day, Right? (Even the early B-52A variant) I believes you had to choose between the B-47 & B-52 for America's post-war bomber during the early developments of D-Day and the B-47 ended up chosen, It's kinda weird that D-Day has all the iconic long-living Cold War-era strategic bombers like Avro Vulcan, Tu-95 & Xi'an H-6 but not the B-52. (The picture below is the XB-52 prototype which has a unique "tandem cockpit" design, The cramped tandem cockpit turned out to be uncomfortable for the pilots in case of long-range mission so the mass-production B-52A's cockpit is changed to the "side-by-side" arrangement, I like to imagine B-52 in D-Day having tandem cockpit in a what-if scenario where the mass-production B-52A retains the XB-52's tandem cockpit).
The B-47 was chosen very early in D-day's development when the post-war time fame was limited to equipment built before 1950. As I've added more countries the post-war time fame had to be expanded up to 1960 in order to find suitable units.
Because of this the B-52 could now be added to D-day, however my focus has been on adding new units instead of replacing existing ones. So I might replace the B-47 with the B-52 in the future but its not a priority at the moment. _________________

Are infantries obtainable from special crates in D-Day like how it was in Red Alert 1? (In Red Alert 1, One crate is complete with rifleman, rocket launcher, grenadier & an engineer). QUICK_EDIT
No, the logic for spawning infantry via crates doesn't exist in RA2.
You can make crates spawn infantry with a workaround but you'd need to sacrifice one of the other types of crate to make it work tho. _________________

I'm sure that you will add the "Civilian Airfield" that will give player the paratrooper support power, But should it complete with a runway for player to produce ground attack planes & transport planes on it? QUICK_EDIT

Will the Schwerer Gustav's in-game "pre-render" model be changed? Because there're still a few details of it that're inaccurate, And lastly... will the Gustav be buildable & controllable by player?

Will you make new "Bullets hitting water" animations?, The water emits yellow sparks when gets hit by the bullets from the Pistols, Submachine Guns, Assault Rifles, Heavy Machine Guns and an Autocannons just like when the bullets hit the ground in the original Red Alert 2. QUICK_EDIT

You can answer me about the bullets hitting water animations later, Should the Soviets have the Tacoma-class Frigate? America gave Soviets many Tacoma frigates to make up their under-equipped pacific fleet in anticipation of the Operation Downfall

There's an unfinished post regarding the addition of "East Germany" to be playable as one of Germany's subfactions so here is the East Germany's unit list done by me in the original poster's stead.
Infantry: "MPiKM" (Rifle, This is an East German-produced "AK-47"), "WG66" (Submachine Gun), RPG-2 (Anti-armor), 120-PM-43 (Mortar), Engineer, Spy (From the "Stasi", Of course)
Ground Vehicles: Sd.Kfz.9 FAMO (Mobile Construction Vehicle), IFA W5 (Supply Collector), T-54 (Medium Tank), "Amphibious T-34" (Light tank, It would be named "Schwimmpanzer 34" in-game as the original poster suggests, While T-34 is actually a medium tank, It will be seen as East Germany's equivalent of other countries's post-war light tanks, Image link: https://www.reddit.com/r/TankPorn/comments/15a0kp4/t3485_amphibious_modification_test_by_east/), PT-76 (Total War mode exclusive), IS-2 (Heavy Tank, East Germany did operate IS-2s during 1950s-1960s and their IS-2s don't have any special markings), Sdkfz-1 (Scout), "SPW-40PA" (This is an East German-operated BRDM-1, Total War Mode exclusive), "RakJPz SPW-40" (Tank Destroyer, This vehicle is an anti-tank missile carrier armed with four "Malyutka" missiles based on the BTR-40 *The BTR-40 is designated as "SPW-40" in East Germany* while the Polish "9P22" is based on the BRDM-1, Link: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://forum.warthunder.com/t/raketenjagdpanzer-spw-40-9m14-an-east-german-original/9220&ved=2ahUKEwjz87-d_OmTAxXSklYBHV1QHV4QFnoECBwQAQ&sqi=2&usg=AOvVaw0QcSOm2B-xn20OXx7k3c6T), ASU-57 (Total War mode exclusive tank destroyer), "PKW gel. P3" (Tank Destroyer, This is an IFA P3 armed with the "SPG-9" recoilless rifle, I think this one is fitting for Total War mode, You can also add the unarmed "IFA P3" & "Trabant P601 Kübel" if you want to), "PKW gel. P3"'s link: , BM-24 (Artillery), "IFA W5-2M7" (Anti-Aircraft Vehicle, This is an IFA W5 truck with the "2M7" turret mounted on its back), ZSU-57-2 (Total War mode exclusive anti-aircraft vehicle), "SPW-152" (Troop Transport, This is an East German-operated BTR-152), "SPW-152K" (Artillery barrage-calling Command Vehicle/"Buff Giver", The "SPW-152K" designation is given by me since its actual designation remained unknown, It is an East German-operated BTR-152S/BTR-152V command vehicle, It's up to you to add this one or not, Link: https://www.artitecshop.com/en/ddr-spw-152-k.html), "SPW-152 Sanitäts" (Ambulance, East Germany is the only country to has an ambulance variant of the BTR-152, I don't know how the ambulances would work in D-Day though, Link: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=http://www.primeportal.net/apc/thomas_voigt_saxonia/btr-152_spw/&ved=2ahUKEwiwwfWg_-eUAxU7YvUHHQZSHTUQFnoECB4QAQ&sqi=2&usg=AOvVaw3arEWVWvhe5UyMZk06HKwX), "T-55T" (Repair vehicle), "SPW-50" (Troop Transport, This is an East German-operated BTR-50, Total War mode exclusive)
Aircrafts: MiG-15 (Fighter), MiG-19 (Fighter, Total War mode exclusive), "Kaplick-Kerl" (Ground Attack), The "Baade 160" from the original post has a design too similar to the Polish "TS-11 Iskra" so i think you would like to add the "Kaplick-Kerl" more. (Link *Pictures of the "Kaplick-Kerl" are located at the 11th & 27th comment in the second page of this post from "Secret Projects Forum"*: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://www.secretprojects.co.uk/threads/aircraft-of-the-gdr.5943/page-2&ved=2ahUKEwj5qKXJodaTAxWtklYBHdK-Dp0Qr4kDegQIGBAA&usg=AOvVaw2aRsZxFYmZeqqpd8lEhFNo) *"Baade 156 Flora" is also a good candidate for East German ground attack plane, "SP 044" variant of the "Flora" has a high-mounted engine to make room for the hardpoints for bombs & rockets* (The 31st comment of the "Aircraft of the GDR"'s 2nd page on "Secret Projects Forum" has an image containing all the "Flora"'s projected variants link: https://www.secretprojects.co.uk/threads/aircraft-of-the-gdr.5943/page-2), "OKB-1 150" (Bomber), "EF 132-B2" (This heavy bomber project is born in Nazi-era but its post-war "B2" variant has a larger dimensions than the original "EF132" (The "EF132-B2" is slightly smaller than the American "B-36 Peacemaker") and has a "side-by-side seating flight deck" similar to Tu-16 & Myasishchev M-4 (The original EF132 has a "glazed nose" flight deck), EF132-B2's link *pictures of the "EF132-B2" are located at the 13th comment of this post from*: https://www.secretprojects.co.uk/threads/okb-1-junkers-ef-132.10833/, Mil Mi-4 (Transport helicopter), Me-P.08.01 (Transport plane), Baade 152 (Transport plane, You can add it in Total War mode if you want to).
