Do you have the AI flyables from the ModAct 5.3 ?

That may be why you dont have the cockpit classfile

No I don't havethe ai flyables yet. Was waiting until our bandwidth for the month renewed. Sometimes I hate satellite internet and it's limits.
Thanks for the info that I'm missing yet another B25...lol, wow, how many did it take to make this mod?
After a couple of flights with the raider, I tried to make a couple missions in the FMB, partial success, then weird glitching with the raider when trying to launch play from FMB. Really beginning to think this mod is more trouble than worth?

Then again, I'm new and learning, so operator error can be a part of it as well.

Yes, some mods are made from many different other mods so it can be a pain. :) Not sure about your glitch. Learning to mod your game, in which I mean adding things to it, can be very frustrating at first but once you get the hang of it, you'll love it. IL2 has the potential to be whatever we want. Drive jeeps that we have, which I bet someone could make race cars and tracks for them to run on,drive ships and battle at sea, make space ships and have alien wars :).

You could have any sim you could ever buy for a lot of money or have IL2 for, you paid $3.00 for and have whatever you want. Once you learn to add things to your game, then try to learn how things work in the game. Then you may want to learn to make mods. It can be a great hobby.

Indeed. I am having a blast, literally,  ;D on some of the FMB stuff. Making challenging small missions using Hawaii to start with. One is with P-38's on runway as 4 zeros come in. Very hard scramble type mission. Usually only 1 or 2 lightnings get up of the 4. I set up some AA around as well. The AA does more damage to the area fuel tanks than any bombers would, lol. Gotta love it.

I think the glitch with the raider mission is still something missing in files I may need for the plane as you mentioned previously.

The Raider B-25 is still a working operational work in progress. The cockpits are included with the Raider for its own future upgrades. Like you will see in the cockpits of other B-25s, they will have more "junk". The Raider is a stripped down version to lighten it up, so using a stock cockpit wouldn't look right. We're in the process of stripping out the un-needed stuff and revising a simple bombsight like they used.

This aircraft is included in the latest buttons file because it has it's own FM. You will need the AI B-25s flyable mod (20% CTD). There are other cockpits you can use for these B-25 series planes, but DO NOT change the cockpit files for the early B-25 Raider.

The Raider I do have semi working, (only one of 4 aircraft in the pack) I was able to take off from a generic carrier in easy mode with no problem. Handled like it was lighter than one of the other B25s. Way too much smoke effect on engine start up, FPS is like 1fps until engines get running smooth.
Could you possibly update the aircraft list and link to all the goodies needed for this B-25 pack on the original post?

I don't mean to sound ungrateful and do thank you for the work you have done so far.  :)

These planes are based off the stock planes when you get the B-25 AI flyable mod, you might want to hunt down a couple of mods that might free up those FPS rates or turn down your visual settings a bit. When it comes to carriers, those fps drop anyway with so much detail, more planes drop it down further too.

Looking for a Doolittle Raider mission, I did have one a long time ago for this sim but a recent search did not turn any up.

Works on 4.12.2M + Modact 5.3 like a charm. But the A's tail turret is wrong. It looks like this:
