If you look at the aircraft models publicised already you will see that all of the fuel tanks are modelled and also critical engine components like cooling systems and oil reservoirs seem to be included.

It seems likely that these will be used in the damage models so that hits in specific locations will have the appropriate effects. I dont recall whether its been stated that fuel tanks would be individually selectable though. If they were then it would be good to model the variation in centre of gravity as a result of fuel usage. This would give more motivation to manage fuel correctly.

Will we be able to make screenshots like this photo? It's river Thames and London.

The same goes for cargo...

Ah, beautiful Leigh on Sea.

Oleg, I have good question for you :D .......Will a pilot gain more airtime if he manage his engine well, and flying at lower RPM????...( I'm thinking the 109 here, and it's limited fuel)

I believed it is already integrated in IL2, isn'it?

? not sure.....I seem to use the same amount time wise, no matter the throttle setting

Question for Oleg:

Will we see a decent amount of ships of the RN and Kriegsmarine in BoB?

Yep, you are correct....I did a few test, really can gain alot of airtime 8)

Oleg love the game.

Will the ability to make runway and taxi way for us mission builders be included in BoB.
