LT.c J.C.Myer wait's impatiently at readyness..............

http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/g366/WildBoar44/IL-2SturmovikBirdsOfPrey-2.png

Meanwhile, streaking in from south east Wilhelm Hofman 1/JG 26 is flying at tree top level in "Green 8"

http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/g366/WildBoar44/IL-2SturmovikBirdsOfPrey_7.png

Hofman releases his bomb's.....the carnage begins..................

LT.c Myer is rocked by an explosion close to the aircraft park.............

http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/g366/WildBoar44/IL-2SturmovikBirdsOfPrey_1-2.png

The surprise attack has caught the base napping....Fw190 "Jagdbomber's"
pound the base.....................

http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/g366/WildBoar44/IL-2SturmovikBirdsOfPrey_9-1.png

LT.c Myer is joined by LT A.Drew.....the hunt for the enemy begins........

http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/g366/WildBoar44/IL-2SturmovikBirdsOfPrey_14-1.png

LT.c Myer turns to port and is stunned to see four Fw190 top cover fighter's bearing down on him..............

http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/g366/WildBoar44/IL-2SturmovikBirdsOfPrey_15.png

LT.c Myer instinctly reverse's his turn, rolls over and is lucky to avoid the 2nd Fw190............

http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/g366/WildBoar44/IL-2SturmovikBirdsOfPrey_20-1-1.png

Myer spot's the 3rd Fw190 crossing his path.....split second reaction.....

http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/g366/WildBoar44/IL-2SturmovikBirdsOfPrey_25-1.png


Pulling hard back on the stick, Myer misses the deck by inches......

http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/g366/WildBoar44/IL-2SturmovikBirdsOfPrey_26-1.png

Myer guns his Mustang skyward.....the inexperienced LT Drew is on his own...

http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/g366/WildBoar44/IL-2SturmovikBirdsOfPrey_21-1.png

LT Drew wrestles with the controls to shake of his enemy.......

http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/g366/WildBoar44/IL-2SturmovikBirdsOfPrey_46-1.png

http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/g366/WildBoar44/IL-2SturmovikBirdsOfPrey_42-1-1.png

Hauptmann Siegfried rolls down behind LT Drew and takes his shot......

http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/g366/WildBoar44/IL-2SturmovikBirdsOfPrey_47-1.png

LT Drew's Mustang takes hit's and his engine begins to die........

http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/g366/WildBoar44/IL-2SturmovikBirdsOfPrey_48-1.png

Hauptmann Siegfried takes aim....presses the gun button...its all over....

http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/g366/WildBoar44/IL-2SturmovikBirdsOfPrey_49-1.png

LT.c Myer crazy with rage, screams down on Hauptmann Siegfried's Fw190....all guns blazing.......

http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/g366/WildBoar44/IL-2SturmovikBirdsOfPrey_35-1.png

Hauptamm Siegfried has no chance...his Fw190's tail brakes off...he does not bail out............

http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/g366/WildBoar44/IL-2SturmovikBirdsOfPrey_18-1.png

LT.c Myer select's his next target....a long range shot scripple's his enemy.....

http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/g366/WildBoar44/IL-2SturmovikBirdsOfPrey_28-1.png

http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/g366/WildBoar44/IL-2SturmovikBirdsOfPrey_19-1.png

Luck is not on his side this day.....Hauptmann Wagner is hit and his cockpit fills with smoke.......

http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/g366/WildBoar44/IL-2SturmovikBirdsOfPrey_30-1.png

His Fw190 shudder's and begins to stall..................

http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/g366/WildBoar44/IL-2SturmovikBirdsOfPrey_34-1.png

LT.c Myer pulls in behind Hauptmann Wagner........the Fw190 explode's......

Part two....




Five miles from base....LT Bob Brulle with his flight of P47D's is on a ground attack mission, he listens in on his R/T as the desperate situation unfolds......

http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/g366/WildBoar44/IL-2SturmovikBirdsOfPrey_50-1.png

LT Brulle orders his flight to ditch the bomb load.... defence of the base is paramount......

http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/g366/WildBoar44/IL-2SturmovikBirdsOfPrey_51-1.png

Running hard on the deck...a pair of Me109's are heading toward Auchon.....

http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/g366/WildBoar44/IL-2SturmovikBirdsOfPrey_52-1.png

Oberleutnant Lemke calls Hauptmann Voght on the R/T and directs him to pull up into the American flyer's overhead.....

http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/g366/WildBoar44/IL-2SturmovikBirdsOfPrey_53-1.png

LT Brulle aims between the pair of Me190's and splits them with a head on pass............

http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/g366/WildBoar44/IL-2SturmovikBirdsOfPrey_59-1.png

LT Brulle rolls his P47 over and closing at over 800mph passes Oberleutnant Lemke.....the two exchange clances...........

http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/g366/WildBoar44/IL-2SturmovikBirdsOfPrey_58-1.png

http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/g366/WildBoar44/IL-2SturmovikBirdsOfPrey_76-1-1.png

Relief..!! its LT Sparks hanging in his strap's....he managed to eject his canopy inverted and drop out of his crippled P47...........

http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/g366/WildBoar44/IL-2SturmovikBirdsOfPrey_61-2.png

Oberleutnant Lemke has pulled away.....Brulle gives chase and cripple's Lemke with a lucky shot.........

http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/g366/WildBoar44/IL-2SturmovikBirdsOfPrey_56-1.png

In the remaining 17 weeks of war, the Jagdwaffe struggled to recover from the 1 January operation enough to remain an effective force. In strategic terms, German historian Werner Girbig wrote, "Operation Bodenplatte amounted to a total defeat". The exhausted German units were no longer able to mount an effective defence of German air space during Operation Plunder and Operation Varsity, the Allied crossing of the Rhine River, or the overall Western Allied invasion of Germany. Subsequent operations were insignificant as a whole, and could not challenge Allied air supremacy. The only service in the Luftwaffe capable of profitable sorties was the night fighter force. In the last six weeks of the war, the Luftwaffe was to lose another 200 pilots killed. Werner Girbig wrote, "it was not until the autumn of 1944 that the German fighter forces set foot down the sacrificial path; and it was the controversial Operation Bodenplatte that dealt this force a mortal blow and sealed its fate. What happened from then on was no more than a dying flicker". (Wiki Quote)


“Never give in, never give in, never; never; never; never - in nothing, great or small, large or petty - never give in except to convictions of honor and good sense”....Winston Churchill... for all those pilots who fought for what they felt was right.

[CrashLanding]

Excellent work. Thank you kindly.

I didn't realize the P-47 was in the Xbox version. I need to get some flight time online so I can start unlocking some those I have left over before Birds of Steel comes out.

[WildBoar44]

P47D is only available as download on Playstation Store for PSN.........:(

Sure you can download it for Xboxer's to I think ?

It comes with a mission set and the ability to carry 2x1000lb and 1x500lb (I think ?)......or 10 rockets......best $10 I know.....:-P Great for (Arcade) CTA...
..... I would be hounded:mad: if I used bomb's against the people I fly with (Mainly Realistic)........

Mind you bud......it turns like a bus......takes a load of hits in Realistic to put it down.....but still good fun to fly......:cool:

[McQ59]

You're an artist WildBoar! Absolutely brilliant :-)

[Robotic Pope]

Thanks Wildboar. Your pictures tell the story beautifully, very well done :cool: .

[bobbysocks]

nice work!!! knowing those planes fly i know how long it took you to do that...

crashlanding the P47 and Ta 152 are a download that costs $10. you get 4 additional missions for the 47 and they come with all the weapons. neitehr of them fly tremendoulsy great but still worth having. the 47 is nice in strike and CTAs....especially if the crowd you are flying with allows bombing.
