I want to fly P-80's, ME-262's, GO229s, Shindens & Kikkas against B29's. IL2 1946 looks like this is possible.
What do I need to do this? do I need to by the original IL2 and then the 1946 expansion? Where do I buy them?
What kind of hardware do I need to play?
Thanks!!

Aces of the Pacific and Aces Over Europe were my last sims before I got on the IL-2 bandwagon too
IL-2 is a fantastic sim. It will take a bit of getting used to compared to those old classics but it's absolutely superb. No Kikka or Shinden in the normal game but I believe the are with some mod packages. Still the list of aircraft is immense including many of the types available in those old games.
As others have said... IL-2 1946 is the one to get plus the patches since then. Ignore any that call themselves "IL-2 Complete Edition" as they aren't really complete.
