DCS 2.5 and Il-2 BAttle of Kuban Sochi

Flying over the same river near Sochi 75 years apart. Just comparing the 2 games that take place in the same region in different eras

Although both environments are rendered nicely and naturally - I do prefer the version of IL2 Great Battles.

The version of IL2 Great Battles is more polished. The river looks more natural, the mountains are top notch too. Nevertheless with the jet speeds you fly too fast that you cannot really enjoy the terrain. The planes in WW2 fly a lot slower so the increased detail really makes a difference. I think a true comparative video should include the free p51 from DCS and not the Mig 21 to be able to match the speeds of il2 planes.
