The IL-8 is a bit of a odd aircraft that bridges the gap from the IL-2 to the IL-10. This aircraft is quite good in some respects and pretty awful in other respects. I hope you enjoy this video with Stick, Sturms, and myself attempting to dogfight, survive, and bomb targets.

If you could physically fight any historical figure, who would it be and why?
King George the III, merica
Teddy Roosevelt bc our battle would be legendary
saladin because crusades
Fokker.
Erich Hartmann, im a huge fan
That bomb had enough momentum to go into orbit when it hit your propeller
2:40 these trees are the ones they use on soviet tanks for the log armor
Stickboy's long lost cousins
Long lost lore
ground crew to stickboy " how much ordnance do you want
stick to ground crew "yes"
Iirc, the American A20 originally in Warthunder predates it, originally appearing in IL2: Birds of Prey on consoles back in 2009, and again in the game Birds of Steel in 2012 which was literally ProtoWarthunder right down to the (now also replaced) OG tech trees.
The infamous ‘you have a hole in your left wing’ and the test map ambient radio chatter can be traced back to IL2 as well!
I miss the aviation side chat podcast. That actually sparked my interest really hard in flying and now I’m a flight instructor. Pls bring it back some day Bo ❤
100%
the IL aircraft are very good at headons. I once got 4 kills with head ons in 30 sec
Soviet engineering strong. That chase at the 10 minute mark you hit the ground twice and a tree and still survived. Amazing.
Komodo Dragon Approach?!😂
The American tech tree used to have the Havoc model, it was my main when I was strictly playing air RB 5-10 years ago. I believe it was called the A20-G Havoc in game at that time
They have the A-20G-25 nowadays
9:40 Flying an aeroplane with one aileron and one elevator, both on the same side, must be exciting for the pilot...
Lol that bomb at the start just pinging XD
Finally someone flys the Russian A-20! Its a hidden gem that nobody noticed.
About the IL-8: flew it like 5 time ; hated it, just like any IL-2s, went back to fly the A-20 + P-47 combo in mixed battles (I'm better than to use a Pe-8) till 5.7 where I take the Tu-1+2 as CAS and has the Su-6 (AM-42) as backup.
I am okay with the P-400 Airacobra being in the American tree since that is where they originate.
However, I don't understand why it isn't also in the UK tree since we built them for Lend-Lease to the British.
It is true that the English were disappointed with the planes and had to be brought back into U.S. service but the fact remains that they were used for awhile by the Brits.
Exactly as the designer intended.
Great video Bo!
Love the A20 facts btw! Never realized that about the ingame model.
You really have a knack for putting damaged but airworthy planes in to the dirt
"Apparently they put all the amazing things and yours." I just spat my coffee.
I always enjoy your videos Bo!
I find it funny that they can't just swap the models between the trees. I guess there could be other differences between the two options, but it seems funny that the turret is the one thing not correct between the two A-20s. Always enjoy the bits of history - WT or actual - that sneaks into videos at times.
Keep up the good work, Bo & Co!
We're talking about a company that breaks gameplay features by changing sound design. I wouldn't trust them to do a model swap.
2:47 It's surprising how well this goes with Jose Pavli's Showdown from Project Wingman's OST ^^
Always enjoyed the IL-2 Sturmovik videos. Be nice to see Bo & Bismarck playing that again.
2:40 To think you'd made it out alive had you missed that one tree...
Great video, guys! Surviving in the Sturmovik is no easy task, but you guys did well!
thanks for the great video and keep up the great work.
Day #2 of asking Bo to play the Lancaster with the 12000 pound bomb since the video that he did before is no longer here
Hope everyone's having a good day!! Great video!! Love you guys!!
💜
nice video the il-8 was to replace the il-2 but as you can see in video it was less movable so not put in production. those they move to another the il-10 which did make production and introduction at very end of ww-2 and serve in Korea war to and 6,166 were built in 10-year production from 1944 to 54
14:56 Flying through volcanoes does look cool, but volcanic ash is catastrophic for the engines. (KLM Flight 867; luckily no casualties)
Great video
the return of the squirrels!
Weren't there penal units that IL gunners were drawn from? "You don't get a parachute, so you have extra incentive to not allow your plane to be shot down."
Another top video
Whens the next mud runner video gonna drop
This is the crew I wish I had.
Nice plane
If yall love it soo much do an AV20 episode?
Love yall BoCo
Nice fight, and at the beginning... just tall enough, lol.
Those 23mms are scary
*Begin Transmission*
Day 213. Anyone else get those vibes of the FAMOUS tank busters from World War II? You had Ju-87G3 Stukas with those 37mm underwing guns, you had the Il-2 Sturmoviks with the 20mm cannons, you had the Bell P-39 Airacobra with the 37mm nose cannon, and you had the Hawker Typhoon with the 40mm cannons. Man, how there was such a variety of tank busters in ground attack aircraft. You don’t see that now, at least not what I see. I’m just glad there was no ground attack on a T26E4 Super Pershing. 😅😅😅
*End Transmission*
Now you all just straighten up and fly right!
I feel like this is what the IL 2 used to be in the tech tree
6:40 Imagine getting First Strike in this thing
when you turn to much so your gunner cant fire back xD
Am I the only one who thinks Stick sounds just like Sheldon Cooper?
Ил-8 Штурмовик :)
I managed to get this so i might just go and play this after i have played it a little bit but not much i want a USA plane like it cus im A US ground main and just want the B29 for reasons
I keep wondering if I really need to bother with the top tier jets whenever I watch prop games. No silly lock-on and launch multiple IRMs within micro-seconds of each other. You actually have to rely on your skill in aiming instead of Gaijin’s random number generator. Would it be cool to fly an F-15 or F-18? Yup. But I don’t think it will be fun.
Where are those AI gunners when I play bombers?
imagine not viewing the video in less than 30 seconds.... couldent be me
Was that a 500 foot tall tree that the squiralls pulled your plane into or was I seeing that Alt reading wrong?
R u and the bois going to make another vid on scp 5k or ready or not?
U sould fly the mirage f1c -200
Classic Russian bias: armored bathtub cockpit, paper maché for the rest of the plane 😂
I wonder how this performs in GRB
It's control stiffening at high speed is worse than on the il-2. I've got premium il-2 "Avenger", and it performs much better when you pull it out from the dive. Yep, the il-8 is slightly faster, but it is still not fast enough to outrun fighters.
Good thing about it is that you are able to carry 2x500kg, ant these bombs hit hard, but if you can put the bombs precisely, you can do the same job with 2x250kg, and have 4 rockets if you go with il-2. So, in my opinion, the il-2 is better for cas in trb - it is much more responsive at high speed, and in terms of armament it is better, cos you can carry bombs and rockets at the same time.
Funny video and history lesson? Oh yeah🎉
hello my friend i see in movies nice but how?in gmes ? thnaks
Video 41 of asking Bo to please play the Bf 109 Z-1

Replies will continue until the algorithm makes them reach Bo.
