What's TD?

IL2 has been the absolute best air combat simulator period .. for quite some time.. with and without TD.. modded or un modded.. it is the 1C factor in the sim that males it great in all of it's incarnations...

I'll be flying it for some time.. at least until the new series has P-51s in it..

There is nothing to compare at this time or I can forsee.
The new release(SOW?COD?)will take several years to catch up on war theatres.
Since there will be allowances in the code for map builders, and some other 3rd party work it will be faster to have new war theatres than IL2 for sure.
It will probably be quite awhile before carrier ops are included. That will of course be a requirement for any PTO or Korea.
The 8 vs 16 poly is a factor in graphics, but alot can still be done with IL2.
IL2 will be on my HDD for several more years I perceive.

The MED-IL-2, or Battle for Moscow IL-2 comes out.
Why on Earth would you have 10 versions of IL2 on your HD? At the most I could see two.. maybe 4 if you fly modded..
