Secret Weapons

What is the chance for a little bit of project work to be done on getting some of the super secret project weapons put into the game?

 

Some  wonderweapons would be the absolute fun..

It won't happen in this series.

 

What I'd like as a compromise, perhaps as the last content released for the game, would be a series of collector planes that just barely missed seeing action in WWII. There are many planes that could fit the bill. For instance, I just happened to be reading about the P-51H, a refinement of the D. I normally don't care for the Mustang, but a lighter version with a more powerful engine would be fun to try out.

Lucasarts created a cult classic with "secret weapons of the luftwaffe". 

 

To do that with MODERN graphics and physics..... ooooh boy.  Dont forget, those engineers ended up getting captured by russians.... and created something called the MIG jet fighter from those ideas. 

 

Imagine,,,,,,, nazi protype mig jet attacking you in a p-40

It'll never happen but man I'd love to fly a 163 in this sim.

Well, we will see the V1 rocket in Normandy...  Wonders do occur.  ;)

Never say never. Jason himself commented on this not so long ago. I don’t recall if it was written here or during one of the online Q & A sessions. Whether it happens or not, who knows? For every person who finds it sacrilege, there’s another who find it interesting.

I think the best we can hope for is besides the V1 some static objects for its launch pad and sundries and maybe a static V2 rocket and launch site with its support vehicles for us to attack.;)

 

There really is no need for any of the rocket propelled aircraft that operated primarily way up high or the paper projects as in IL-2 1946, the 262 really fulfills all that is relevant for jet aircraft in this particular series due to the type of warfare it tries to replicate, that said, who knows what the future might bring.:drinks:

 

Take care and be safe.

 

Wishing you all the very best, Pete.:biggrin:

the original il2 1946 was allowed to have some of the "never actually used in real life but did in exist in prototype stage' like the Komet. Saw a cute short clip online of someone shooting at one with a mustang. 

 

But man those clouds sucks...

In my opinion this is not the purpose of this sim.  I would not like to fly on a secret jet, whose shape you just know.  This sim should only devote himself to simulating in the best possible way and not becoming an arcade.

If anyone could do justice to a homage of Secret Weapons, this team could.  I'd love to see it, but it remains to be seen if this type of project would even be feasible.  Some might love it.  Others, not so much.
