I used to run Forgotten Battles on my old Athlon 1.0 GHz, with Geforce 2 GTS with a whole 64MB of ram on the GPU (I remember that Sturmovik used to crash after a random time, and FB would crash reliably after two hours and some number of minutes (I never did time it exactly to find out what the number of minutes was)). I could play at 1600 x 1200 on that, since I had a pretty decent monitor.
I built that computer in 2000.
I built a new PC in 2005 for Pacific Fighters, it was an Athlon64 3000 (actual clock speed 1.8GHz) with DDR memory and a Radeon X800 pro, I don't think it was really needed for IL*2 after all, though other games certainly required it.
IL*2 1946 will run on anything half way modern, though you're probably better off with a graphics card that's a bit ahead of a Geforce 2 GTS.
