DISCLAIMER, please read before commenting: This is not supposed to be an accurate representation of reality. That's why the video title begins with: "IL-2 1946:". I'm showing off the game, not history.
@@wirelessone2986 Actually, not accurate. ZG 1, 26 and 76 had a mixed record. Even in 1943, the pre-LR escort era. The NJG were inhibited by inadequate training and tactics too - they never should have been used in day defence their specialisation was the night war.
Messerschmitt worked for BFW at the time, so it is code named as Bf-110. Heinkel, Blohm & Voss, Fokker-Wulf etc. owned their own companies, and the ussr named planes after designers, hence the confusion. The Germans were right, planes were designed by large teams of skilled engineers, it is wrong to just brush them off
Luftwaffe pilot Heinz Wolfgang Schnaufer had 122 kills in the night fighter role in a Me-110, hell, there was even a day fighter Ace, his name was Wolfgang (??) as well. Crazier stuff has happened. Great video, thanks for allowing us to watch these!
The Zerstorer-- while flawed-- was probably one of the most interesting propeller-drivenaircraft of WWII. It had variants that were highly armed, and the rear gunner's sighting technology was very advanced.
Untrimmed rudder was spliting myu attention from video and the fact I couldnt trim it was annoying XD But video was great as usual, definitely makes me want to make some proper intercepting sorties.
Crazy that the BF-110 was outclassed in the fighter role in 1940, but it was an excellent bomber interceptor throughout the war - unless the bombers had escort. Gotta hand it to the aircrew on both sides - I'm surprised the planes could even get off the ground against the weight from all them brass balls.
@@timonsolus Who had better? Why did a country the size of an average American state hold off the world for almost 6 years? Germans had 1950s tech against everyone else's 1930s tech.
Minong Maniac : No. Germany’s advantage in 1939-42 was because of better strategy and tactics rather than superior equipment. The more advanced German equipment only appeared in 1943 and 1944, when Germany had already lost the war on the strategic level, and her armies were in retreat. German wonder weapons like Tiger II tanks and Me 262 jet fighters weren’t produced in enough numbers to prevent defeat. And besides, the Tiger II was too heavy for its engine and transmission, resulting in frequent breakdowns, and the Me 262’s engines had extremely slow throttle response, were unreliable and prone to flameouts, and had an operational life of only 25 hours before having to be replaced. The Soviets and Americans made better tank engines (IS-2, M26), and the British made better jet engines (Gloster Meteor). The only remaining German advantage by 1945 was better guns for both tanks and aircraft.
@@timonsolus Germany loss is because it took on too much. One too many fronts. Simple as that. 1 less front and Germany would have wasted us. If they would have just beat England instead of fighting massive battles in Russia... I would be writing this message from Mars right now. How could that be? It would be made possible by German tech, only it would be built by the people who designed it. Instead we have colluded German tech where we can't get back to the moon because the great guys who designed it and built it are gone, to Asgard.
Minong Maniac : Germany couldn’t defeat the UK because the Royal Navy was twice the size of the German navy and the Italian navy put together. Meaning that even if the Germans had managed to land an invasion force in England, they wouldn’t have been able to keep it supplied with sufficient ammunition, fuel and equipment. Eventually it would have been forced to surrender, just like the Axis force in Tunisia was in May 1943.

Before the P51 was flying escort Germany zestorers tore up B17 and B24's.Looks accurate to me
@@wirelessone2986 Not with P38 and P47s flying escort. When this happened it was the 110s that were slaughtered.

The BF-110 would've made one hell of an anti-ship aircraft. Torpedoes, armor piercing bombs, 30mm cannons, oh my!
my dad flew many missions over the Mediterranean, as escorts to Crete and as combat squads. They flew out of Palermo, Sicily.

It was a difficult life for Me-110 pilots back then...thanks for posting. So realistic!!!
LooxGood sorry but Bf, not Me. It's wrong naming.
If I may ask - what mod do I need to download to have this particular type of game play? I just repurchased 1946 after seeing your video.
Thank you!
Check the description for links to the mods.
Unless, you were a night interceptor, then you were godly.

Lower left corner of frame
quite the coincidence, lol
Wonderful play

Oops, I meant the ME-410!
The Bf-110 was outstanding as a fighter bomber on the Russian front and as a Night fighter
@@wirelessone2986 as a low flight bomber, yes
As a fighter, no
@@airshark2764 Fighter-bomber is a common term for ground attack aircraft
@@wirelessone2986 what i meant is that it was outstanding in its bomber role but terrible in dogfights lol, though its better than Pe-2 by a long shot

Das Modell hab ich auch noch .Ein sehr gutes Deutsches Flugzeug. 🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪
Ja geil. Die hab ich auch als Modell
ich auch
Germans had the coolest looking aircraft!!
Damned escort again !
38:33 When you play to war thunder and see the repair cost XD

Real fighters don't need a rear gunner (P-38).
The BF-110 night interceptor was insane. Shooting bombers from below that thing was godly.
@@alastair9446 It was also an excellent fighter bomber on the Russian front
My favorite heavy fighter.
Love Them Mustang's!
Same plane
Amazing,keep up the great work
Crabby would be so proud of that landing;{)
Have you ever noticed that the exit full screen button looks like the luftwaffe?
Yes I have and it’s wierd
Never noticed before, but now I'll never see it the same way again.
Do some commentary, just talk some stuff even it about washing up or movie reviews. So banter is always good
5 bombers for a Bf-110 ...fair :-)
yeah i saw ur profile pic and nearly smashed my screen
haha the fly on the thunbnail is pretty good.
Bf-110 is proof that pigs can fly.
Никогда не лезьте лобовым против 110! 110 был слишком тяжелым, как дневной охотник.
Vďaka. pochopil som.
The Jerries had the best equipment.
No they didn't.

can you tell me what else do i need to download?, is necessary original game or not?
Yes
no match for fighters, too slow and clumsy, but a good weapon platform
Эх графончику бы ей,чуток. А так, прикольно.
Крутые полеты
Speak 'Murican!
You run like Ben Affleck
ルフトヴアッフエはへなちょこか⁉️たかだかコンソリに手間取って。
uuu
Very little action
It's a simulation and not a theme park ride.
That’s why german cities got destroyed lol
