From the last few days, July 43 and the greatest battle ever at Kursk.

From tonight's mayhem.
We escorted eight Ju87 "tankbusters".
And ran into these guys, of whom one made it home only to get caught on the ground!



I also bumped into this "ACE", and I reckon when his wing came off, I was close to 700 KMH.

Ivans flak was pretty accurate forcing one of our tankbusters,to land behind enemy lines.

From this weekend, where I find myself back on the Kuban peninsula.

Ivan is stepping up the pressure with more fighter bomber raids on our ports & airfields.


With losses on both sides.

This weekends fun.




If you have not flown IL-2 in a while, I highly recommend VP's modpack if you only want WWII content.

From the last few days, and our staggered retreat from the Kuban September 43 is going well.

This weekends fun, and we successfully retreated from the "Kuban".
Ivan paid a heavy price,but glad to say he did not sink one of our ships.

This weeks fun.

This last few days fun, and our days on the Crimea are running out.

From the last few days, and I find myself transferred to the Western front.
But not before getting a few more Russians.

Got sent to Berlin to test this baby.(date June 5th 1944)



Arriving a few days later in France and all hell has broken loose.



But managed to scrounge this new toy,unfortunately for me I broke the tail wheel on my first flight.

But quickly repaired.
