Default Take a good look at the box art

Is it just me or does it seem like Spitfires are shooting down the IL-2 on the cover art? wtf? were there even any british squadrons stationed on the Eastern Front? lol oh well... awesome game, regardless

Look even closer, it's stuka, not an IL2. So the spits are on target.

Looks exactly like a Ju-87 to me. Looks like it's simply had its wheels blown off in the name of composition!

I personally shot the wheels and struts off that Stuka...


...and since when are IL 2s designed with a gull wing?
