      @5peciesunkn0wn Před rokem +1

      Sadly Rise of Flight doesn't have any italian planes to my knowledge. But I hope that Flying Circus (the IL-2 Great Battles engine version of this game) will include an even wider variety of planes.

      @@5peciesunkn0wn Unlikely. IL-2 v3 (Great Battles) has been focussing on a few flyable planes, though pretty representative in width.
      IL-2 v1 (combined into IL-2 1946) had a wide variety of planes, including a number of “speculative” ones … like Heinkel’s circular wing VTOLs and their guided AA missiles.

      a) I know
      b) if it is its own thing, that dogfight is not possible. FC only adds a few planes and maps.
      c) none of that negates the claim that IL-2 v3 is few planes (or tanks, for that matter) that are well modelled, rather than many planes that are rougher around the edges. I do not see them changing that model any time soon as it has served them well.

That first Hun is going to sink on landing! Excellent Cin and Demo. Timely video; As the British in HOI4, I'm going to visit the Kriegsmarine September '39 with a mixed force of Wellingtons and Sunderlands, because the Square heads won't come out to play. Hope nothing goes wrong. ;-)
