Maybe i didn't make myself completely clear, so i'll try to explain a bit more.

1st scenario: Do the Grumman royalties refer to products we pay for? As in, if a developer makes a 3d model and "sells" it (in an expansion or other paid-for product), the developer's profits legally "justify" Grumman's royalty fees?
I don't think it is a case of royalties. They are not the issue. They own the rights to the likeness of their aircraft. They don't want anyone to use their property. They don't listen to any arguments by modeller's because there is no financial (corporate) need for them to do so (relative to the size of the company).

Having said that, what is the incentive for them to aid a foreign company at a potential cost to domestic ones (Little Soft ware brothers etc.)

I have never heard any talk of fees.

And I found something interesting,althought NOT OFFICIAL about radars.Hope TD watch this video.Can anyone confirm if those stuff are historically correct
The plane is accurate, the panel is accurate - the instrument itself, not so much.

Radar was a lot more primitive back then. See the Bf-110 video to get an idea. The one in the Me-262 also shows the image you would get from a rotating beacon, not a fixed set of "whiskers".

Yeah that would be cool but it was rare. You can't have a nightfighters in the sim without the Mosquito NF, probably the most feared one of all. As I see it there is so much involved in the putting NF in Il2, but even if it only works online I would love it.

-The AI as it is now can see perfectly in the dark, which negates most of the point of nightfighters. The "new dark" from DT should help with human vs human though.
-Lack of british bombers, and effects like exhaust glow and aircraft mounted searchlights.
-The various radars, jammers and other systems unique to each aircraft, and the need for 2 crew to operate the thing, or at least an intelligent AI copilot.
