We need to remember that SOW is not IL2 (stock, modded or otherwise) and it would sad if we missed out on a historical portrail of air combat because they were labeled too 'Holywood'.

Cheers!
Nice video. This is PTO so it makes me wonder if fire like this is a Japanese non-sealing tank problem.

@ Skoshi Tiger

here is what I meant by initial outburst footage with aircraft going all the way to the ground ( or water in this case ) .
These two aircrafts are about the biggest black thick outburst I have seen from tons of WWII archive footage ,
it's rare to find as there is not much of such outburst recorded by gun cameras or by the cameraman on the ground .
These are pretty violent blasts but then again each thick smoke is running out in few seconds .

Here beginning @ 3:24

Now I'd really like to see these effects, where the fuel blows, then is all burned off so there is little trailing smoke 3:35
