What I would like the most is the diesel variant of the Pe-8. Unreliable at high altitude or cold weather and no wonder considering the absurd low compression ratio of 13.5 to 1! Loss of a turbocharger would instantly stop the diesel cycle. Still, i'm a diesel junkie and it could be the only diesel engined plane in IL2. The sound of the engines would be comparable with every diesel V12. At least they were economical so missions in IL2 would require a very modest fuel load.

The Ash-82 versions are also nice. Too bad those versions had no gunners in the gondola's.

What I don't understand is the request for 4000 to 6000 USD in donations to finish the project.

Why? 1000USD per each cockpit model and 1000USD per external model doesn't sound too much, taking in account, that making one cockpit takes from 1 to 3 months of a full-time work. I guess, 1000USD/month is less, then minimal wage for USA, or EU. So what is so difficult to understand?

Oh, I just got it... You, actually, ask, why it is so cheap?

Plea for a Pe-8 with diesels (ignore the engine is from a Tiger):



What a beautiful music!!!

That's what I call heavenly sounds from hell

Edit: it seems the Tigers didn't use diesels but the T34 did.

Looking at the screens,it looked done.
Anyone know were I can find the SB and IL-4 development SS?
And what other planes are being worked "secretly"?

Guys, please forgive me but you are straying waay off topic! And, by the way, the Maybach that powered the Tiger was not a Diesel
