How lucky we are to have actual WWII vets here to tell us how it was back in the day!
Anyway I just dove the 45' D9 from 5000 meters at full throttle with MW50 on and hit 870km/hr. I leveled out above the ground and held a speed above 800km/hr for quite a distance. Once it slowed down to 800km/hr I pulled back on the stick as hard as I could to see what would happened and that did not present any problems either except for a bit of a blackout. The plane made a few noises but no parts actually came off.
Now of course I fly only the official version of IL2, so I can not comment on how any of the various hacks/mods various people and their wet dreams have dumped onto the community......
