Thats probably because of the name change. "IL2: Storm Of War - Battle Of Britain" is no more, hence the "removed from sales".

Preorder "IL2 Sturmovik: Cliffs Of Dover" and ull be right back on track.

Obviously I'm not going to find the actual one they are using in the game, but aside from the lack of wear/rust/dirt I think it's a pretty accurate depiction of a late 1930's tractor.

I have it on very good authority that most farmers take extremely good care of their tractors (addressing rust, painting regularly). So - it is probably just the dirt which is missing...
