Default IL-2 Cliffs of Dover Singleplayer Pack

IL-2 Cliffs of Dover Singleplayer Pack
(10th July through 30th August).
using TF 4.312

For you singleplayer enthusiasts out there.



Fly as a British Section Leader in a Flight in missions recreated based on this site: Battle of Britain Historical Society

36 missions, some with the creator's artistic freedom (lack of information countered with deployed Squadrons/Staffeln locations)

Number of inloved planes is cut in half (or even less) in general to keep performance for e-pilots with less computer power (as such each RAF Squadron is only 6 planes in two 3-plane sections).

During take off, twist you plane to check the plane in front of you and throttle up as the one in front of you takes off.
(On two column take off please ignore the 3rd plane of the Flight Leader Section ahead of you to your side as he will not take off until you're airborne)

Home Chain Radar implemented making Fighter Command to guide you to target via radio calls (direction, distance, altitude and grid every 1 minute) - no text pop-up's or similar.
(But try to keep up with your flight leader and his 3-plane section)

Mission Menu (TAB-4-1) allows you to call for nearest enemy or friendly contact or flight leader position.

I repeat, you need Team Fusion 4.312.

Download (2.7 MB 7zip) and unpack into '..\1C SoftClub\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover - MOD\missions\Single' or a subfolder in there

Did I mention you need the TF 4.312 patch?

and, don't get shot down as much as I did creating this.


Edit:
Found another interesting event at World War II Day-By-Day
Quote:
In a daytime raid, 10 Corpo Aereo Italiano Fiat BR.20M bombers attack Harwich, England, escorted from bases in Belgium by 42 Fiat CR.42 biplane fighters (other fighters including German Bf109s abandon their escort duties due to bad weather). RAF Hurricanes from 257, 46, and 17 Squadrons intercept them over the Thames Estuary, shooting down 3 BR.20Ms & 3 CR.42s and badly damaging 2 more BR.20Ms (no Hurricanes lost). Winston Churchill quips "They might have found better employment defending the fleet at Taranto."

Outside Battle Of Britain technically, but close enough
