Agreed I love how many obscure aircraft IL-2 1946 has. Seriously I've been a ww2 aviation nerd my whole life an I still learn of new concepts from this sim I've never seen before.
The Chinese Airforce used these pretty successfully in combat against the Japanese Army and were a handful for Ki27s to shoot down. Very manuverable and pretty fast for a biplane dive bomber. Unfortunately for them at that stage of the war they were facing superior numbers and all eventually lost.
I haven't played that Sim in years.....Looks like sas IL2 finally did a mod for the SBC. I can't quite place what cockpit they used for it. I've got the old 4.13.4m modded version, that is 5 years old.
@@joeshmoe9978 friggin naval aviation designations (SBD, SBC, SB2C, F4F, F4U, F6F, FM2, PBY, PBL, PBN etc.,) It's like hmm what part of the alphabet will we be flying into combat today?

Wow, that's the next best thing, since a color film doesn't exist, for seeing the Marines' Helldiver in action. 👍
I really love your videos, excellent job as always!
Beautiful old bird. Looks like a drag queen though, with all those flying wires weaving a basket around the forward view of the pit.
Thanks for the link, I gotz to get this one. Thumbs up video!

Thanks again, enjoyed that!
Why did they call this plane the helldiver?? There already was the the SBD Helldiver
SB2C Helldiver was designed after the SBC4 biplane Helldiver. SBD was the Dauntless. ✌️

@@holeshotshane5692 Tbh, the designations at that time were, as Falcon's Fighter Tales put it, were a f*cking mess prior to 1962.
