namhee2 Posted July 6, 2019 Posted July 6, 2019 I think that the Pe 8 or TB 3 have a stake in the game. Special the TB 3, because the airplane was very versatile. Not only as a bomber but also as a transporter. The TB 3 would compensate for the fun in the game more. 3
=GW=seaflanker819 Posted July 6, 2019 Posted July 6, 2019 I don't think it gonna be a realistic plan...
Chief_Mouser Posted July 6, 2019 Posted July 6, 2019 (edited) You'd better take up playing the original Il-2 series as you're never going to see those here. The Pe-8 was never used in that either; a complete white elephant although a beautiful model. The TB3, however, was a great dogfighter! Edit: just discovered that this is still up on YouTube - the only time a Pe-8 made sense! Edited July 6, 2019 by Red_Cat

Do you think he may well be on the Dalton highway heading north? As in, if he doesn't get cold feet after crossing the Yukon River, he will probably wind up with a dead horse™

And the name joke is fun, though I dont know whats the connection between the two sentence?

No, I'm from Scotland, it does look beautiful though in a remote and cold sort of way, not unlike where I grew up It may be a little on the cryptic side for an international English forum, I'll make an attempt to explain it to you in a PM as I can't get it into a spoiler for some reason. Oh this might help, it's what you get when you reach the end of the Dalton highway, heading north On 7/6/2019 at 8:23 AM, namhee2 said: I think that the Pe 8 or TB 3 have a stake in the game.

I prefer to see either before a B-17 or B-24 or a Lancaster, as we have the maps to use them. I really prefer the Pe-8 and TD did an excellent one for original IL-2 series, so references are most certainly available. Soviet side really lacks a transport aircraft and a bomber that can carry a decent bomb load, of say 2000kg or more. Edited July 7, 2019 by Pict 1 1
Enceladus828 Posted July 13, 2019 Posted July 13, 2019 The TB-3 was used in the Battle of Moscow, Stalingrad, Kursk, and Leningrad. 1
