Lol at the 3-D reference. Though it'd be interesting if the film will actually go for that format. Unfortunately we'd have to wait a very long while to find out. Speaking of which, would this third Strike Witches anime project be better off as a movie or another series? I'll post my thoughts later.
I also found this one "Strike Witches Chara-Sort" game where, in a series of battles, you choose between two characters from the Strike Witches universe, based on who you like better, or are familiar with. Unfortunately I cannot post the link to it being that it's against forum rules (correct me if I'm wrong.) Being that the SW universe has a lot of characters I'll just post my top ten (according to the chara-sort game.)

Well I re-correct Their names I think Jof12788 made a mistake a little.
Okay The Three Extra Characters In The Strike Witches 2 DS Game Are...
Spoiler for Patricia Schade:
Name:
Patricia "Patti" Schade (パトリシア・シェイド)
She is a witch from Britannia and a member of the 504th Joint Fighter Wing. Her ace archetype is Patrick "Paddy" Schade.
Background
She traveled around in countries belonging to the Britannian Commonwealth when she was small together with her grandfather and father, something that helped broadening her mind and gave her a cheerful, sociable, and for her age, calm and composed personality.
Her father went to college together with Lynette's father, and they competed with each other in sports as well as academics. Her family was friendly with the Bishops during her early years, but it seems like Lynette does not remember much of it. Patricia's father sometimes tries to stir up a feeling of rivalry between the two families, but Patricia herself doesn't really seem to care. She is also quite unimpressed with how her father sometimes dotes on her too much.
She favors a fighting style with focus on support, since it means all her allies will work together, but this has also lead to her own aerial victory score not really increasing in a way that was expected of her. However, she distinguished herself greatly in the battles around the Mediterranean Sea, particularly Malta, earning her an invitation to the 504th.
She is a very gifted shield controller, being able to adjust and optimize the strength and size of her shield to the enemy's attacks. This exquisite magic control also means she can stay in the air for an extended period of time.
Her Quotes
"Well, I guess I have to show Papa my good sides sometimes too.”

Spoiler for Fernandia Malvezzi:
Name:
Fernandia Malvezzi (フェルナンディア・マルヴェッツィ)
Based on Italian pilot Fernando Malvezzi.
Background
Graduate of a military academy for witches in Romagna. With a small degree of skill in healing magic, Fernandia was assigned to the magic medical corps, but she actually had a strong desire for a combat role. She snuck herself into a ground attack witch unit, one of the understrength sections of the Aeronautica Romagniana (Romagnan Air Force).
After studying tactics with a Karlslander dive-bomber squadron, Fernandia, together with her best friends Luciana and Martina from the academy, flew many missions, even recording a destroyed heavy land Neuroi to their name. In recognition of the team's fame and overwhelmingly positive evaluations, all three were given the honor of being admitted into the Pantaloni Rossi (Red Pants).
Not long after, Fernandia's unit was equipped with MC.202 Strikers. Her experience with those enlightened her towards air combat, and ever since '44 she has been using the G-55.
Even though Fernandia can be extremely self-assured, headstrong, and impulsive, she also displays an undeniable friendliness, and she is a natural leader with the power to get others to do things her way. Within the team, she takes the role of commander and also vanguard.
Appearances
She appeared together with her fellow Red Pants comrades at the beginning of "Into the Sky Once More"

Spoiler for Hanna-Justina Marseille:
Name:
' Hanna-Justina Marseille (ハンナ・ユスティーナ・マルセイユ )
Her full name is Hanna-Justina Warja Rosalind Sieglinde Marseille
(ハンナ・ユスティーナ・ヴァーリア・ロザリンド・ジークリンデ・マルセイユ).
Named after Hans-Joachim Marseille.
Background
Extraordinarily skilled in air combat, and with stunning looks, she is an ultra ace called the "Star of Africa".
When Marseille was young, her powers were too much for her to control, a trouble-causing problem child who clashed with those around her. But after meeting one teacher who changed her life, she set her sights on joining the air force.
Even in the military she continued causing problems with her rowdy lifestyle, and her disregard for formation fighting led to her engaging enemies on her own. However, when serving in North Africa far from European civilization, she became much more composed, even aloof.
She is often regarded as humanity's most skilled marksman, such is her skill that it almost appears as if her targets dive into her line of fire by themselves.
Her victory count by '42 was over 100, but while the number of Neuroi appearing in Africa was relatively low, they were comparatively more threatening and even formidable Neuroi than those in European skies; thus her score is often said to have a value of two or three times higher.
In October 1942, during a fierce battle in a newly-arrived Striker, Marseille's Eagle familiar "died" in a freak accident. Without the familiar's magic support, the engine output could not be regulated, and the engine burst into flames, while Marseille was saved by her wingman and evacuated out of battle.
Mourning the death of her war companion and familiar, Marseille had a small pyramid-shaped grave marker constructed directly below the site of the battle.
