Even then - not a chance. Same for any other BoB or Korea content in the IL-2.
So forget about it and move along.

From Wikipedia

The Franks G-suit
The first G-suits were developed by a team led by Wilbur R. Franks at the University of Toronto's Banting and Best Medical Institute in 1941. These devices used water filled bladders around the legs and two 'Mk.' versions (or Marks) were developed:

Franks Mark I suits were used by RAF Hurricane and Spitfire pilots;
Franks Mark II suits were used by the United States Army Air Force and Royal Canadian Air Force pilots. U.S. pilots tested them during 1944, but found the water system uncomfortable and were issued an air-inflatable designs known as Berger suits from September 1944.
[edit] The GPS series 'Berger' Gradient Pressure Suit
In the United States, physiologists Drs. Earl H. Wood, Edward Baldes, Charles Code and Edward Lambert also contributed to the study and development of G-suits in the 1940s.[7]

The researchers were part of a team assembled at the Mayo Clinic investigating the effects of high performance flight on military pilots, by studying physiological effects of flight and how to mitigate them.[7] They used a large centrifuge to whirl riders and observe their blood pressures at the head and heart levels with special instruments.[7] To prevent drops in blood pressure, the team designed an air bladder suit that inflated at the pilot’s calves, thighs and abdomen.[7]

Their efforts finally culminated with the release of the first US military design in late 1943: the GPS (Gradient Pressure Suit) type fighter pilot's G-1 G-suit.[8] The team subsequently worked on developing further, more advanced models in 1944 and beyond.[8]

Will there be G-suits in 4.10 or later ?

It would be nice to have some campaigns for these new planes, id better get busy, lol.

+1 Good idea about the campagnes, but I don't think they will make them because of SoW. I would like a Winter War campagne flying in a D.XXI

In fact we rather rely on players, namely mission- and campaign builders. We know there are lots out there and as this doesn't require any more equipment than the game itself, we think, its better to save our limited ressources for different topics.

Yes, I agree with this approach, from what I understand TD is a small specialty group for improving the core mechanics of the sim, and players are provided with the tools (i.e FMB, skins etc.) for making content. That being said I need to do some research before beginning to make a campaign.

Could this mean we could get a ki44 added in the future?
(he did alot of other amazing work too =o)

Two front war?While DT works on Europe he will focus at pacific?

Yes, and Bf 109B would be very nyce against olders I-16 and I-15 (Spanish Civil War)



Cheers!

That's what takes me longer than building the campaigns often... it's doing the research to make it an accurate and fun campaign.

The Emil entered service in mid 1939, but the Luftwaffe were still operating a mixture of C, D and E types during the invasion of Poland.



Would be nice to see the Jumo engined models and the early E subtypes (E-1 and E-3) incorporated into an official patch, but they would need their own cockpits first, since they are using the E-4's at the moment.

Hi TD folks

I just feel plain curious, since we haven´t seen any recent 4.10 updates I asume that RL must suddenly be very busy (Having worked on "volunteer" software development myself i have some insight into that, you usually have another job to put meat on the table and a family to tend to, as well as plenty other intrests one has in life like watching the World Cup).

My question is plainly how are things proceeding ?, is all Ok, did you get bitten by "Bugs outa hell" ? Is the team in good health ?

Kind Regards
