What is IL-2 Great Battles?
The new generation of IL-2 Sturmovik titles is developed by 1CGS and is a combat flight simulator of the World War II era and carries on the tradition created by the original IL-2 Sturmovik first released in 2001. Sturmovik recreates the aircraft, their use in the war and the environment they flew in. This latest product is a successor of the classic IL-2 Sturmovik that was a leader of the sim genre for more than 10 years. The new IL-2 is true to the ideas born by the first title with an accurate representation of aircraft and famous WWII battles.
#IL2
Although the Spitfire gets all of the glory. The Hawker Hurricane is the unsung hero of the Battle of Britain. During the struggle to maintain air superiority over the skies of Great Britain. Hurricanes took the brunt of the Luftwaffe’s strength until the Supermarine Spitfire came on the scene in sufficient numbers. About 1,715 Hawker Hurricanes were fielded during the Battle of Britain and they accounted for 60% of all Arial victories by the RAF during the pivotal battle.
Overall, the Hawker Hurricane turned out to be quite the workhorse for the allies. From the Cliffs of Dover to the Jungles of Burma. From the Deserts of north Africa to the Steppes of Russia. The Hawker Hurricane Proved to be an effective, durable and flexible platform that would see service in one form or another from the start of the Second World War until the end.

The Early British Heavy Lifter Praise the mighty plane.
If you do another il2 campaign it should be with this plane 🇬🇧
I want him to do that to
I agree
I agree :D DOOOOOOO ITTTTTTTTTTTTT Do It NOWAH
"Good hits in both engines".
Yeah, that second engine on the bf109 surprises many pilots :)
Stealth Zwilling. ;)
Woah man that music takes me back
IL2 Birds of Prey on the Xbox 360
Thank you for this. My Grandfather Saw them in India, North África and Burma. Sometimes its not about having the BEST aircraft .....its about having AN aircraft....
Them 109s sure like popping out their wheels
Wolfpack is a wheel ace. He's deadly vs. wheels.
Yeah, I guess the whole goal is to make the enemy "retire" from the battle.
Good stuff Mr Pack! I can feel a career skin coming on even as the video reaches it's end! Template still isn't out though so patience, patience...
Maybe Yuri will transfer :)
17:04 What a beautiful roll movement to regain advantage
Hahaa! Love the Birds of Prey music, brings back fun memories.
I thought it fit nicely. I wanted to use the theme from the movie "Battle of Britain" but decided against it for obvious reasons..
Always loved the Hurricane. The best Christmas present I ever got was a 1/24 scale Airfix kit as a kid, the box art was amazing.
That is awesome!
I love the little mirror on the canopy roof!
It is nice to have!
Imagine Wolfpack, Karaya and the JG4, Taff in Exile, Arianne Scharfi and Krupinski playing together as a squadron... _that_ would be a slaughter in the sky.
I'd like to see this as a campaign
Yes the adventures of Roderick St-John "Wolfie" Smythe..
Me too!
Looks GREAT ! Imagine how much more fun a Boulton Paul Defiant would be !
WP345 - gunner "Hunns in the sun !! .. Bank Port"
Pilot - "Right"
WP345 - "No, port - left"
Pilot - "Right, Left"
Hunn Pilot - "He means bank port - Left"
Pilot - "Ok"
Hunn pilot - Tatatatatatata !! .. BOOM! ... thank you..
Roger Roger. Over oveur. What's our vector Victor?
Dunno, keeping close to history a Defiant would be:
Gunner: “What’s that beneath us?”
Pilot: “Not su-...”
BANG SPIN CRASH DEAD
@@HydroSnips The only answer to that might be diving to tree-top level when enemy fighters spotted ?
One of my customers was in the RAF auxiliary..
She has flown most WWII aeroplanes.
She tells me that she rates the Hurricane over the merlin powered Spitfire.
It was only when the Spit got the Griffin engine it became good.
Just remember the Hurricane was based off of a biplane fighter that was later converted over to the monoplane formula for the Hurricane prototype for faster speed and climb rates, sort of like with the F4F Wildcat was based off of the preceding F3F flying barrel.
Just discovered this video that I missed somehow. Going to buy this plane right now. Gotta try those 303's!
This is most likely my favourite collector aircraft too, just for sheer versatility. .303 bullet hoses, cannons, anti-tank guns, bombs and rockets to choose from on one platform is just so much fun.
I agree! I am having a blast with it!
I for one am glad you shown this aircraft off, I always preferred it over the Spit, as I believe its definitely more rugged
Whoever modelled that cockpit did a phenomenal job. It looks like a proper front line fighter; paint chipped, dust, grime, wear and tear etc. No factory-freshness, this is a workhorse :D
Beautifully modelled, a much underated, stable and versatile gun platform. Really liked your intro.
Such a great intro to summarize a great aircraft’s history. I had no idea the Soviets modified their hurricanes with ShVAK cannons. Awesome video as always
I just got me a hotas had this and dcs forever never played. But now I'm loving this plane. As well as the spitfire and p51 in dce
9:17 Jumping off a burning plane must be one of the scariest feeling
Considering they’ve just been introduced to Being IN a burning plane I think jumping out seems like a far better alternative lol
The second I heard the opening trumpet of that music I had IL2: Birds of Prey flashbacks, dammit now I'm nostalgic for what was war thunder on the PS3 before warthundr existed. xD
Haha
the Russians found that the coolant system of the Hurricane could not cope withthe extreme cold of Northern Russia so they modified them to have extra drain valves in the coolant pipes, as well as the means to quickly drain the oil from the engines. On operations, they found that when the aircraft landed for the night, they would drain both oil and coolant and then refill them with warmed oil and coolant before the next day's flying. They liked the radios,quality of the canopy, side hatch, wide undercarriage stance,tough steel tube airframeand over all ease of use of the aircraft.
I expect they liked the ease of repair too.
Yeah great fun plane for IL2. A fair bit on the slow side for mid war period but still robust and great in a turn fight. Oh yes - and the battle of Britain ones had ammo for a whole 16 seconds of firing time. Yes really. You're better off with the Shvaks - at least when you hit you do some decent damage.
The hurricane, beautiful.
Results may very... Your a good pilot in my books.
Been searching for a vid showing how to do any damage with these guns. Thanks!
I love the hurricane, it's so easy to fly, I find myself avoiding it these days because flying anything else after it feels like a struggle xD
Spitfire is a dancing assassin; Hurricane is a Mugger.
From White Chapel 🤣
Please, much more Hurricane, love your work and a series in this aircraft would be most enjoyable.
I'll watch anything with a Hurricane!
"Aim for the engine" *Distant sounds of shattering canopy glass*
A British carrier campaign would be cool
I agree!
I wish I could see what your controls and opentrack settings are. Looks so much smoother than mine.
Second
Great video. Your presentation of the canon equipped Hurricanes is really beneficial. No .303 mg's.
They are certainly not the best!
I have to admit, this is one of my favorites too! Wasn’t really looking forward too it either. Probably the most beginner-friendly planes in the BoX stable.
Excellent opening scene. I am just getting into the Hurricane it is a good plane to fly. Thumbs up.(709) For now i use in in CoD, and 1946.
The 109’s reputation for flimsy landing gear is well deserved.
Also those 12 .303s were lethal in war thunder. Like a swarm of angry wasps...
3:28 hey devs, Wolfpack needs a beer holder in his planes, thanks
I've really been enjoying flying the hurricane
Excited to see more. Run a campaign with her.
The brownings also not only had shear ammo count, they were picked as there was less than a 50% chance even one would jam expending all that ammo. There was no mechanism to clear a jam as the likelihood as so low. The downside, not great anti-bomber ammo.
Yeah, the most effective tactic for the Hurricane is get in close, put your nose on the target...then just hold down the trigger. Carefully aimed bursts don't do much because of the lack of punch, but you have 12 MGs with all the ammo in the world.
Hey Wolfpack, the Combat Box guys are doing a Battle of Britain plane-set for their mission this Friday, if you are interested. Early 109's covering bomber raids on coastal radar stations defended by Hurricanes and Spits.
That sounds awsome! I'll try to make it!
As always outstanding video
That intro was amazing!
Excellent flying Wolfpack!
Thanks!
Tuff little aircraft, once it got its metal wings and some much needed armour it could take a hell of a lot of damage I believe, the gun well put enough holes is something it bound to burst in to flames.
Great stuff man!
Thanks man!
Great video. I had a 'Structural failure, bail out!' message the other day, but when inspecting the damage there wasn't anything wrong. Must have broken some kind of oddball internal break that didn't actually affect the plane but marked it as a failure.
Huh that is indeed odd. I have not encountered that one yet.
@@Wolfpack345 It was odd for sure. Took a AAA round somewhere around the middle of the 109, then get that message. Flew it home a bit gingerly though just to be safe.
Nice shootin' Tex!!!
I have to say it is my new Favourite Fighter right now .
you know, those .303's are really a *hot* topic of debate:
many say they were inadequate for Air-to-Air, I say they're *fire* if you aim just right.
I'm not sorry
Definitely need to do a Battle of Britain campaign!!!
Please make a British hurricane campaign series.
Getting vertigo with all those spins!!😂
Great work mate
I would love to see a battle of great britain campaign in this plane or maybe a spitfire at some point, would be very entertaining.
I want to do a Spitfire campaign when Battle of Normandy comes out. I may do one sooner though.
9:19 Just look at those holes, clearly you peppered him pretty well. BTW, what's with those 109's wheels?
They are falling off like crazy. Someone is not tightening the bolts enough.
Yes the sturdy Hurricane.
14:40 both engines? Way better punch with the cannons and the 12,7 mm guns: buckshot vs. birdshot.
Collect Me 109 wheels. 100 wheels: win a weekend on the T 34. 50 wheels: a whole week T 34 and so on.
All in all it´s looking very promising with the Hurry. Please go on.
Wolf,you can fly for the RCAF anytime...give us a call.Van. BC.Cudos.
Bobbin? Check.
Lights? Check.
AA right below you? Check...
Lol...
I have noticed more enemy fires with this aircraft as well. I think its due to the High fire rate ....many BBs hitting , and each hit in the right section of the enemy plane that's a small chance for a fire.
50 2% die rolls well your going to make one of them. :)
I wonder if it's also partially because De Wilde incendiary 7.7mm ammunition is modeled, it was known for being roughly 2x as effective as the equivalent German 7.92mm incendiary ammo in starting fires
I do like the hurricane, What are your thoughts about a hurricane LP. Or a Interceptor of a different make.
Glad to see the game recognizing the often ignored Hurricane
The true workhorse of the Battle of Britain
Like it? Hellfire I love it. I know what I'm flying when my new pc gets here
Nice reversal
Such a pleasure to see you fly, good gunnery. Awesome content. Since you play what I play, pretty much, I’ve added you on steam.
Fly the friendly skies.
Have you consedered a 1946 (Steam) campaign?
It may look like a sad Basset hound but she can fly and fight when your pilot her correct
Haha that is a great description.
Iv never seen so many wheels blown off lol
Plus send game info so I can get involved
You gotta give the 40mm a go, with HE shells. You get 15 shots (30 rounds, 2 guns). But one hit will kill. I've actually gone well in MP averaging 4-6 kills a flight with it - nobody expects to get one tapped like that.
Not necessarily for a video (unless you really enjoy it too), but just give it a quick fly. The muzzle velocity is surprisingly high.
Haha I'll have to try it out. I never thought to use them in an air to air role.
Hey Wolfpack, Id love to see you play some DCS campaigns. FC3 planes are not that hard to get into and have somewhat simplified controls.
The problem with DCS is the track recorder. It is tedious to get all of the cool external shots I get in IL-2. I do want to make more Hornet videos though.
@@Wolfpack345 Just wanted to say to you that your channel was my best find of 2020. Keep up the nice work. Greetings from Brazil !
... attacking someone from behind is not war combat engagement, is more of hit and run
💪👀🤳
Never played a flying game so i don't know what to look for, but to be fair this looks very awesome & i would certainly give it a try.
Right my main question to you wolfpack365 is are you likely to start a new patrol in SH3 ? i do hope you are & if you do would you consider the electric u boat ? myself i have never played with the type XXI but i am on course to doing so, admittedly i have long way to go as i am currently patrolling in 1942.
Anyway i can only hope that you might consider starting a new patrol in SH3.
Keep up the great work wolfpack as it has been super enjoyable.
Shoots at a BF109 - Good radiator leaks from both engines. Me - Wait a minute I had no clue BF109 has two engines. 14:25
Missed that one...
@@Wolfpack345 Its Ok it made me open wikipedia and confirm my knowledge 😁
Was that your stall warning when you were over Stal-ingrad ? Love those 20mm 's.
When you bring the throttle down it buzzes. I believe it is a landing gear warning. Other aircraft like the Spitfire have this feature.
WW2 fighters only stall warning was the natural buffet felt when you stall an aeroplane.
Type XXI Silent Hunter series?
12x .303 = Death By a Thousand Cuts
That is for sure!
I've had trouble IDing between 109s from Hurricanes when doing career missions just because the wings look too similar. Any tips on differentiating the two from a distance?
I think the main giveaway for the Hurricane is the hump and the nose! It will just take some practice.
I had a question, is the Hurricane part of any module or is it strictly a collector plane? i was under the impression if i bought Normandy it would come with it, not sure why i thought this, been playing every version of this game since it came out in the early 2000s, guess i was hopping for a one time 80 dollar hit,lol, thank you for your time.
The Hurricane is not part of Battle of Normandy. Battle of Normandy is coming with 10 aircraft. P-51B/C, P-47D “Razorback”, Typhoon Mk.Ib, Mosquito F.B. Mk.VI, Bf 109 G-6 “Late”, Fw 190 A-6, Ju 88 C-6a and Me 410.
Battle of Normandy is still in early access so I would recommend Battle of Bodenplatte if you want western aircraft which is feature complete. The Hawker Hurricane is in fact only a collectors aircraft.
I would wait a few days though. I guarantee you there will be a sale soon. Most IL-2 products go on sale from 50% -75% off. $80 can get you quite a lot during a sale :)
@@Wolfpack345 thank you much for the reply,i already have both,Normandy and Boddenplatte.
I bought Normandy but i hadn't taken a look at it, i just realized why i thought that the Hurricane would be in it, Normandy+very close to England+Spitfire+naturally Hurricane since they go hand in hand but i guess not,lol, oh well that Mosquito and the 410 that are on the way will more than offset any love i might have for the Hurri , ill just buy it later on clearance, thanks again for that quick reply and have a good holiday!!
Would you be able to do a Battle of Britain tribute?
i.e Hawker Hurrican with eight .303 Brownings engaging D017's , He 111, Me 110's and 109 E3's, please
Possibly!
Saw some gameplay on steam (POGGS)
Impressive
Watching this, and seeing you fly the hurricane smoothly makes me wonder whether the IL2 dover game has the same flight model as what you're playing. I bought the battle of britain game because it was cheaper, but I can barely take off and when I'm in the air the plane wants to roll right all the time, despite me not changing anything from when I spawned into the cockpit
Do you trim the plane? Every plane rolls or drags to one side because of the propelor turning
@@Ray-lf1eo trim the plane? Do you mean add rudder trim one way or the other?
Having heard the Merlin engine several times I think the sound in game needs work. Still, looking forward to you doing a campaign in it.
The Hurricane's Merlin definitely doesn't sound the same as that of the Spitfire, I've seen and heard both aircraft up close numerous times in air shows and I must say it sounds pretty accurate. They probably recorded the sound of a real one, there are still quite a few airworthy examples.
"Actually Wolfpack" (Using Jingle's voice) the .303 machine gun used by the British was a Vickers Limited not a Browning which was the USA's
Unless I'm missing your reference to something, the .303 in the Hurricane was a Browning chambered in .303, not a Vickers Limited which were phased out end of WW1.
They were infact Browning 303 machine guns.
Brownings manufactured under license
Do you plan a campaign series with the russian payload ? It looks really nice and punchy !
THey could add gratis the Battle of Britain to the IL2 next gen...
Welcome to pea shooting simulator 2020 Wolf
Hi Wolfpack345,
So I just got Il-2, and I was just wondering what everything you can do in it is. I really like your channel, and I think you go about things very professionally, so I was just wondering what everything you can do is.
I feel that may be a rather long reply old bean. I would recommend just playing and finding out for yourself. That's where the fun lies
Battle of Britain campaign?
What’s the difference between a 109 vs 190 when ID during flight?
Shape of the wings and the fuselage - the 190's body is shaped like a wedge due to the radial at the front, and the wings are more angular.
ᴠɪᴅᴇᴏ: *GREAT!*
ᴀɪʀᴄʀᴀғᴛ ʟᴇᴛᴛᴇʀ ᴅᴇsɪɢɴᴀᴛɪᴏɴ: *UNFORTUNATE!*
wheel collector!
Never know when you will need them
Man I watch your videos and I would love it if you did a Russian or British campaign with this please
