New Units: famous pilot aces

the recent  addition to the game is the introduction of famous aces and their uniquely marked aircraft.

So far, the list includes:

USA
Joseph Foss, USMC (F4F-4), 26 aerial victories
David McCampbell, USN (F6F-5), 34 aerial victories
Gregory Boyington, USMC (F4U-1), 26 aerial victories
Richard Bong (P-38L), 40 aerial victories

Japan
Tetsuzo Iwamoto, IJN (A6M5-52c), 94 aerial victories
Aoki, IJN (J2M3-21)
Naoshi Kanno, IJN (N1K2-J), 25 aerial victories
Jun Shimizu, IJAF (Ki-44-II otsu/40mm Ho-301), 18 aerial victories
Makoto Ogawa, IJAF (Ki-44-II otsu), Bukosho recipient, 9 aerial victories (7 B-29s)
Yoshio Hirose, IJAF (Ki-44-II otsu), 7 aerial victories
Isamu Kashiide (Ki-45 tei), Bukosho recipient, 9 aerial victories (7 B-29s)

In the game, the aces aircraft have improved combat and maneuver values.
Speed is slightly and turning rate strongly improved to account for the high handling capabilities of experienced pilots.
Weapon range is reduced, while accuracy and damage are increased.
Ace aircraft also have higher hitpoints when in the air.
