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:-D

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

isnt it a stuka ju 87?

It isnt a stuka, There Wheel are in a Fixed position, this plane Wheels are up

yup... its not a Stuka

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

looks like a poorly painted stuka - no wheels.

two-seater
inverted gull wings
rear wing struts

poorly painted indeed... no undercarriage threw me off. lol nevermind then

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


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

They were developed to combat the German Unicorns, make it an easier match up :P
