The missions automatically have A-E-Hartmann's skin -Ju87G-2 "T6 + AD" Hauptmann HU Rudel, Kommandore III./SG 2, Koursk August 1943-  selected for the player (CAUTION:  skin has swastika!  If you do not want that then choose a different skin).

This Rudel skin found here:  https://www.mediafire.com/file/p5b8eaal90qe9ny/Ju87D3_Rudel.zip/file

or here: 

 

Kursk Kanonen (Kursk Cannons) is a 10-mission single player scripted campaign in which the Player will fly the Ju 87G on the PROKHOROVKA map.  Missions are from July 5-9, 1943.  The time period is during the Battle of Kursk as the German Army heads toward Oboyan and Prokhorovka and finishes just before the clash at Prokhorovka.  Inspiration for the missions are from actual battles.

 

*Notes:  

*You MUST HAVE the PROKHOROVKA MAP from TANK CREW and, of course, the Ju 87D-3 from Battle of Stalingrad.

*A mission is successful when the player destroys a target (usually 1 tank will trigger success).  If target objectives are completed then it is not necessary to make a landing.

*All missions start in the air as "Airstart" which allows for quick action.

*Mission descriptions are in English-only, sorry.

*Books cited:  Black Cross Red Star vol.5 by Bergstrom; The Battle of Kursk by Glantz; Demolishing the Myth by Zamulin.

*Some of these missions are revamped old single-player missions and hopefully will not slow down your computer as much.

Enjoy!--created by CzechTexan

THANK YOU 

You're welcome!  And, thank YOU for the skin because I was searching all over for this one.

 

*By the way, everyone, this July 2024 is the 81st anniversary of the Kursk battle.

Good morning ,

You're welcome, thank you for using my skins . I can make them without the prohibited marking if necessary.

I don't have Tank Crew and don't especially want to buy it - so, a question for the developers:  could it be made possible to just buy the Prokhorovka map (or other maps) on it's own rather than the whole title?  The maps could be sold separately just like collector planes?

Ya, my screenshots in the Screenshot forum got hidden!  They said I was showing the "prohibited marking".  Actually, I only showed half of the marking...how is that worse from when others show it with just a dot in the middle of it?

 

Anyhow, I think others, including myself, would like to have a non-prohibited-marking skin.  If you do make it, I'll include a link in the first post.

Hi CT,

I have been really enjoying this campaign and getting through each mission without too much trouble, so far. That has changed at mission 9 "The Critical Cornerstone". I have tried about 6 times now, and despite making three kills myself and the majority of the Soviet tanks destroyed I always get a failed Mission message. I see a continuous stream of "Objective Achieved" messages, and have even waited for all the AI aircraft to land (The escorts never seem to want to!). What am I missing?

Sorry, I made errors again!  

I found that I had added a 2 instead of a 1 in the Logic's Axis Counter and I think that was the problem.  I also corrected the last mission which had the same problem.  

You can probably just replace the last two missions with the missions in this new V1.1 download:

Just tried it, nice. But it seems them 37 guns cannot kill tanks?

It is difficult but it is possible because I have done it.

You might want to try this MOD by Kraut1 which weakens the durability of tank engines when hit...

In mission #3 you must destroy at least one Churchill tank to get mission accomplished.   If a Churchill tank is destroyed but you cannot move forward to mission #4 then I do not know what would cause that problem.
