- The Gilbert Islands, a group of 16 atolls near the equator, were viewed by the U.S. as a stepping stone to the Marshalls and became the first target of the Central Pacific Campaign. In November 1943, the U.S. launched an offensive code-named Operation Galvanic, in which the prime target was the tiny island of Betio in the Tarawa Atoll in the Gilbert Islands. (As part of Operation Galvanic, the U.S. would also send a smaller force to the Gilberts’ Makin Atoll, some 100 miles north of Tarawa. Compared with the taking of Tarawa, the U.S. faced far less Japanese resistance at Makin and the Americans secured the atoll by November 23, 1943.) In late December 1941, Tarawa, a coral atoll located some 2,500 miles southwest of Hawaii, had been seized by the Japanese, who heavily fortified Betio, Tarawa’s largest island.
By November 19, 1943, American warships had arrived near Tarawa. Naval and air bombardments were planned for the next morning with the goal of weakening Japan’s defenses and clearing the way for 18,000 U.S. Marines to seize the island. However, the taking of Tarawa would prove to be more difficult than the Americans had anticipated.
joder que recuerdos lothario... hay que juntarnos y volver a volar
vaya que si, creo que a sido la mejor época de la simulación de vuelo. ahora aun que tenemos muy buenos simuladores, ninguno tiene la gran expansión ni en aviones, ni en teatros ni en mapas y lo que mas importa, ninguno de los de hoy, ninguno, ha logrado lo que este consiguió con la comunidad de simulación. vamos 22 años después de ver la luz, y sigue mejorando gráficamente y se sigue actualizando oficialmente. a ver cual de todos los actuales logra sobrevivir con tanta salud.

Good fight! You had two or three pretty close calls with those near collisions.
The stock AI seems to accord to the AI certain 'superpowers', such as ideal flight performance and fewer of the limitations impised on the player. The way tnose Zekes can keep up with a Hellcat is a good example. The AI engine overheat mod could be worthwhile to try out...
true, the AI is really good on the old IL-2.
thanks for comment. I have to fly the next mission, but many hours of "off camera" are being added funny
