Come on dude everyone knows that the "I win" aircraft of il2:1946 was not the 190 but the la-7 and also the spit mkIX 25 lb boost...

Did someone say the Battle of Britain lasted two weeks? From his use of the word 'gotten', I suspect that he is American.

If an aerial defence of the American coast against Japanese bombers and fighters had lasted for six months, I'm sure he would have been more interested.

Krupi old chap, I remember those days well. Infact my first few sorties in LA-7's resulted in me getting so over confident with its superior speed and handling characteristics that I actually rammed a few FW-190's & other assorted enemies, and made a complete idiot of myself.

The Spitfire IX 25lb was a great little aircraft until everyone on the red side start using them excessively.

My personal "I win" plane was the I-16

In my view, with all respect, your a stats-whore who has absolutely no interest in history & are only interested in your own self gratification, which means you prefer to take the highest performing aircraft available and take down as many aircraft as you can, with the least amount of skill possible.
I'm sure you loathed in the days of the under performing allied aircraft and are truly heartbroken that now you have to muster some skill to shake that pesky Hurricane from your tail. So now you spend your days fantasizing over flying your FW-190 and picking on those outclassed Soviet aircraft.

The neyt, who have read more between the lines than the lines itself Sorry, but I never said anything about dramatic scenes or a hard time. I also did not tell that I am historically uninterested stat flyer. I am nearly the only person who is barking not to get ANY global rankings, k/d ratio, etc. I hate such things. When you read carefully you know what I would like to see. In a time later, where good planes arise on every side, I would like to see the difference with kommandogeraet simulated to strengthen the focke. It was not overall superior alone about the characteristics, but it was feared because of the devices it had implemented later. And I just would like to see that really simulated and would like to see , how it influences the fights. And if you read the beginning, I just told, that IN MY VIEW, the scenario is boring for my taste. It simply isn't my favorite.

Again no insult necessary and reading between the lines is not your strength, I guess. Everything I said later is just to express, that I personally really find this scenario boring. A bit too much, but just read!
