Crash

Angus killed 2 x AAA, 2 x Trucks and the port wing and engine on a Me 410 (oooh flames)

Should be good but it might be turned 8pm before I get on as I am going to the zoo and a meal.

Seen this Colin? https://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/66068-kuban-autumn-nth-africa-desert-beta-upload-updated-version-to-7-11-06-2022/?do=findComment&comment=1226531

Fly with us soon, and you Arthur!

Hello Pilots, I know that there is a great deal of uncertainty for some of you as to the future of the IL-2 franchise. I will try to help ease some of that anxiety. First and foremost, as he mentioned in his video, Jason actually left 1CGS back in late summer. BON was released on time and all the Collector Planes, Vehicles and modules with preorders started will be completed and released. 1CGS is still producing hardcore flight sims and Jason's departure doesn't affect the development schedule in any way. Moreover, the development of the next project has already started as it was stated several times in Russian and English interview and podcast. More info on the next development cycle will be shared in our Dev Blogs, streams etc. And for those concerned about current events affecting anything, it does not. 1CGS is not affected by any sanctions. And there will be a stream event next week with the development team that should provide much more detail on the path forward. The exact date is still TBD based on production completion.

I can use my files. I havnt been able to get on my PC until now.

I will do some testing tomorrow. I have tested some and I will check which ones.

Just make sure you copy the folder correctly as there is another folder inside the extracted folder. If it is correctly installed the splash screen shows dessert pictures

Will do Colin

Still no news about Jason but..... 330 Dear Friends, The work continues. At the moment we're working on the schedule of the new project, new techs, compiling design documents for the new aircraft and other objects - and along with all that we're developing the six Collector Planes, some of which will be released before the end of this year and some in the beginning of the next one. One of them is the British fighter Supermarine Spitfire Mk.XIVe "Bubbletop". Unlike the Spitfire Mk.XIV already existing in the sim, this one has a bubble canopy without the dorsal fuselage spine. Many WWII fighters had such modification - the goal was the improved backward field of view. However, the dorsal spine wasn't there for nothing - it provided better aerodynamics via better airflow behind the canopy, reducing total drag of the aircraft. Nearly all pre-war aircraft designs had it because of a bit higher speed, but the actual war, as it usually does in human history, set the priorities differently. In the beginning of the war two Axis design bureaus tried a different canopy and rear fuselage design: there were Focke-Wulf Fw 190 designed by Kurt Tank and Mitsubishi A6M Zero designed by Jiro Horikoshi. They weren't the first fighters with bubble canopies and without a dorsal spine behind, but they were the fighters that were quite numerous and affected the air battles on either side of the Earth. The bubble canopy without the dorsal spine affected the aerodynamics negatively, but it gave the pilots much better view backwards - this was noted not only by them, but by their adversaries as well, since an air engagement was usually initiated by a sudden attack from a blind zone. Soviet engineers created bubble canopy modifications of the existing aircraft in the end of 1942 and in 1943 these models were produced on a massive scale. Their Western colleagues adopted it later and bubble canopy modifications began to emerge in 1944. Bubbletop Spitfire Mk.XIV appeared a year after the initial design, in April 1945. In Great Battles, Spitfire Mk.XIVe "bubbletop" will have two wing variations - with long (fighter) and short (photo recon) wingtips. As we always do, there will be other modifications included. Spitfire Mk.XIVe bubbletop will be released in the beginning of the next Spring, which is a bit symbolic, since, as we mentioned above, the real fighter appeared on the front during Spring 1945.

Angus got 1xAAA 1 x facilities

Angus is up for more P-38 FUN

They can't win by loosing more territory.

Thank you for all your hard work Colin

Med for me

Angus Young got 5xcannons and 2xAAA

9th good for me

Is it worth getting the mod now?

After my pilot frightened some squirrels I took this, then my pilot decided to frighten some rabbits. Shame that we didnt make it back

Will any mods need to be installed?

Quick question, do I need to install the beta?

Hi Fen, I will give that a go

To be honest I dont trust myself enough to give this a go. I do promise to fly more DCS soon. honest.
