Night fighter

[bf-110]

Yes,I remember there was some talk about they being implemented on 4.12...

So far we've got blind landing and navigation, changed night darkness, 4.12 will bring slanted weapons on the Ki-45 and bombers have been added in previous patches and more will be in 4.12...

Yep. I think that there's a very good reason why DT hasn't yet released airborne radar and planes like the Lancaster.

Turning IL2 into a game which can realistically handle strategic high-altitude night bombing operations on the Western Front from its origins as a simulator for tactical low level daylight attack missions on the Eastern Front is quite a stretch!

But, in 4.12 we get the Wellington and the Ki-45, which will allow realistic "wild sau" nightfighter operations for both the ETO and PTO.*

*Except of course, for the absence of ground-controlled intercept - but that can be faked.

I do believe Ian Boys released a mission for the Bf-110 in which FoW settings simulate the contact updates. It's very challenging and rewarding!
