- In this Video we take a look on the differences between the G-4 and the G-6 of the Bf 109 series.
And I compare the stats of the G-6 against typical adversaries.

Ah the G-6, my favorite of the 109 series. I spent countless hours in the famous 'White 9' when I played Aces High.
This is almost enough to convince me to invest the small fortune required for IL-2 these days.
The AH G6 was great, loved it too. Great handling. But you needed a good gang of fellow "pilots" around you and fly it very clever. Funny thing is, that was more or less exactly what the "real" pilots said in early 43 when they got the G6. Disapointed about speed, but thrilled about the better handling. ;)
Fantastically explained as always. I very much look forward to those additional Bodenplatte aircraft from you. Looking forward to seeing them in action.
love your how to videos :)
Waiting for the G-14 MCN!
Waited for that almost 1yr. You made my day happier! Thank You
great vid. I concur whenever flying the G6 i'm always more reluctant to dive down from 3-5k to something on the deck as it doesn't really have a good quick exit strategy against it's contemporary opponents like the F4 does (G4 has the same problem) while with the FW 190 you can dive in with lots of speed but still have good nose authority to get guns on target, and then exit out with a lot of speed.
hey Sheriff, is there a comparison chart for all the aircraft? Just recently started playing IL2GB. Thx ,great vid as always.:)
yeah, according to Don Caldwell's JG26 unit histories by the time of Normandy (and the subsequent army support air war) the G6 had become terribly un-competitive compared to the Allied fighters of late 1943 to late 1944--the Spit9, P47 and P51.
It will be nice to add the mw-50 as a modification like the F mod for the La-5 in bodenplatte
Can you fit the underwing gondolas with a 3cm MK108 in each? On the western front,for a time, this version of the G6 was a very effective bomber killer. The American bomber crews called it The Jack Hammer
I doubt that the general bomber crew knew about specific sub versions of any plane. You had to be lucky that they could tell apart a Fw 190 from a 109.
We dont have 30mm gunpods in the game at all. The Fw 190 A-8 can be eqipped with two 30mm guns tho.
I know it's irrelevant to the content of the video, but which map is that? Sneaky preview of Bodenplatte? Or is that Moscow Spring or something? I don't think I've ever seen those snow remnants before.
Thats the prokhorovka map
@@SheriffsSimShack Ooooh, nice. Cheers for the reply!
So essentially the G-6 in the critical year of 1943 put the German pilots at a disadvantage performance wise against the best allied types, and by the time G-14s, G-6AS, K-4s arrived it was too late as the situation was just too overwhelming and the average pilot skills too diminished.
Well, the OKL basically said in 43: Stop this dogfighting bollocks! Get the Bombers!
Sometimes I cant believe how retarded the decisions of the OKL was
@@local1x true-it is easy in hindsight to say what the right decision was, but ultimately the plane was symbolic of the turning point in the airwar.
I never played IL-2, so I'm wondering: Are there any limitations to what plane you can fly online? As far as I know, you don't need to grind and unlock stuff like in Warthunder, but I imagine if you can just chose what you want to fly, everyone would always chose the most powerful plane for the faction. With other words, why would anyone fly a G-6, if you could also chose a G-14 or a K-4?
the planes are usually only available in historical context (to some extent)+
But server admins can decide which planes they allow. But usually a specfic timeframe is kept in mind.
@@SheriffsSimShack I see. Thanks for the explanation. Since the late Bf 109 models followed each other in relatively close succession and often were used alongside each other, it often will be hard to historically justify allowing one, but not the others, won't it?
What I mean is that the time window within which the G-6 was the "best" 109 was relatively small.
@@TrangleC the G-6 we have is an early one. and makes sense in mid 43. We have only planes from the eastern front of that timeframe. The G-14 followed in 44, so there is quite some time in between. K-4 was introduced at the end of 44, which makes them appear at OP Bodenplatte but not at Normandy or Market Garden to name examples.
@@SheriffsSimShack I see. Thanks.
May I use the opportunity to ask you another question regarding the game:
I'm just about to get into flight sims. I played Warthunder for a while years ago, but I'm more interested in something more realistic and immersive now, so I want to get started with IL-2 and DCS.
I got a decent mid-range joystick, but don't have a Track-IR yet and my monitor is relatively old and small. If I really want to enjoy flight sims and see some success, I will probably be forced to buy a better monitor and of course a Track-IR.
Since the Track-IR alone costs 200 Euros and I need a monitor too, that will cost me enough to where I could also afford a good VR set instead.
Would you say that in such a situation, it might make sense to just skip the Track-IR stage and go to VR instead? I heard that both IL-2 and DCS are VR compatible, but I can't judge or estimate how playable they are in VR.
@@TrangleC I cant hardly give any accurate advice here since it all depends what you really want from your game. First you dont have to buy TIR to have a good headtracking. THere is the delan clip and track hat which have the same functionalities as TIR but are cheaper. VR is surely a thing to keep an eye on but you need to have beefy hardware.
I think the late model G6s had the bumps removed with an internal redesign, so go back to G4 standard.
no, that never happened for the G-6. That happend for the G-10 and K-4 models.
The Bf 199 G-10, AS-enginees G-5s, G-6s and G-14s as well as the K-4 saw a refinement of the engine cowlings.

@@SheriffsSimShack and the command variants as well (AS+ ASy)
Bondeplatte Map and the planes left are getting launched tomorrow boys! Get your shit ready
bf-109 G6 = BFG6.
what should that tell us?
@@SheriffsSimShack it's a doom joke. BFG = big fcking gun :) = real good.
