Everyone has his/her favorites...What's the point of a night hunter without night prey?

As far as I know, the plane is not included in the standard Microsoft package, but is an add-on, so you're holding Il-2 to a double standard. But yeah, there's a mod. Have fun.

That's also modded, but is a "Franken-plane" as far as I'm aware, assembled from bits and pieces of B-24s, B-25s, etc.

Still, we can't bemoan Il-2 for what it doesn't have. We should praise it for what it does have, which is far beyond what any other sim has offered.

IL-2 is of the nature that if a plane is to be implemented then it should at least be attempted to do it right. That hasn't held true in 100% of all cases but a solid effort has been given in many cases to get the aircraft right.

We need all of the elements of night time operations to really do it right. It looks like we have a beginning with some MOD and Team Daidalos efforts to bring us the Bf110G-4 with functioning radar. It needs a variety of targets and time...and if that can be done. Then I'm sure a He 219 could be a good follow on.

If I'm not mistaken the He 219 had a top speed over 400 mph correct? Impressive for such a well armed and larger in size aircraft.

Forgive my coyness but if I'm not mistaken it's more of the Wellingtonish, Hallifaxish, and Lancasterish

The latest version of the He-219 has its own 3d model and pilots cockpit. Still no R/O operator position, though.

UP's 219 is great, but a real cockpit will be fantastic: as well as a Do217 nightfighter version


PS: with Command and Control, playing nightfighters is an incredible experience IMHO.

Team Diablos was playing around with the BF110G4 Nightfighter ....

I hope it's still on the cards to be included.
