Rule of the Me 262: Always keep the airspeed above 600km/h and don't do sharp turns because Mustangs and Thunderbolds are always trying to make a shortcut to you. Awsome flying. Keep a good work :))
Yeah man its so annoying when a pair of them form up behind you you need to keep fliying straight for a while until you can turn back to the bomber formation
Nice action, you're a artist! Please do more entire missions, the badly returns, wounded tripulations, fired engines, death on hard landings, war things. Tks Fishyy!
It’s amazing what 4 x 30mm cannons can do, pretty devastating…..good thing for the Allies that the 262 arrived too late to effectively alter the air war…
There's some funny "funnel?" in the nose of the Me 262 at the beginning of the attack,, and there's some kind of "blind" over the stern of the B 26 shortly afterwards?
How does attacking from above where contrails give the bombers a massed-fire target compare to attacking from below where the Me's camo might help it? Same slashing attacks but from below?
You cannot sneak up on AI gunners. In IL-2 it's better to have the highest possible closing speed. Real tactics involved coming in from below, to lower closings speeds in order to have time to fire, but that's not the best in IL-2.
An easy mistake a pilot can make is to control the fast plane with the center control column. When you do that, you'll induce drag and slow the plane fast, causing the overcontrol hence the wobble. Set the trim and control the pitch with your throttle and it will be easy peasy to control the plane at high speed..
@@Fishyyy The confetti appearance after disintegration of the bomber is what gives it that unrealistic feel. Bombers did not disintegrate like that. There's a famous up close clip of a B25 getting it's wing root hit directly by flak and it did not disintegrate into confetti like pieces. But 30mm MK108 shells will absolutely wreck bombers. There's lots of test footage of it. One of the clips shows a bomber cut in half by a single 30mm hit.
Still the best air combat sim ever made.

@madscientist 666 It was never meant to be a turnfighter..
Great camerawork and montage. Also good flying!

Love your IL-2 videos! Keep it up! :D
Thankfully the American 8th and 9th Air Force were infinitely smarter than IL-2's AI. I've enjoyed the game for years but the AI is laughable.
It reminds me one of the last combat missions flown by Adolf Galland in his JV 44 in April 1945. His last victories were B-26 Marauders.

10:40 Got that bomber shot down by flak?
The wave of japanese attacks until Midway are a nice content, do you agree? Heroic defenses, deadly attackers, nice unusual planes...

Fishyyy could you do a pby catalina mission with torpedo's?
Bet the Germans wished they had as much fuel as you had !!!.
Enjoyable none the less.
"...It is not just a game, it's an adventure !....[ I just love this clip..tho' I have 1946, but why I dont have the B26 in my menu...why? ]
The B-26 is a mod, it's not in the vanilla game. I stated the mods i used in the description.

Cool. I guess IL2 gives us the best idea of what the bomber crews must have experienced. Must have been very scary.
Could the gunners even track/lead the 262's?
Were b26 that flammable and prone to explosions?
Every plane under 30mm fire is flammable and prone to explosions.
Need Kommadore Schenck.
reminds me a lot of what JV44 did at the end of the war.
The names of Adolf Galland and Heinz Bar spring to mind.
Make please one video with Me 163 and another with He 162!
Curious as to how you keep your plane steady my Logitech 3D always wabbles
nelson blanquez any way you could show how you have your Logitech setup as well as the sensitivity?
oh i thought you were using a Logitech 3d extreme

real a/c dont go down that easily
Yes, they bloody do. Statistically you neeeded 3 Mk 108 hits for a heavy, not even a medium.

Any R4M options?
you can carry them and, depending on the game version, chose firing modes
Nice
Does Il-2 ‘46 take head tracking?
yeah
Very inaccurate but enjoyable.
I definitely need head tracking..
marauder : lmao is only another bf-109 e-4 boys
me 262 : .
Wish this was true back then. All the time.
what this 262 done it's waste of time and fuel
Are you stupid or something?
