Adding Nazi Flying Saucers, and other fantasy elements just makes no sense in a context of 'historical' modelling. If anyone could come up with actual evidence for such things, it would be another matter, but adding things because they would be 'cool' or 'awesome' would make IL-2 just a variation on every other shoot-em-up/RPG/whatever.

If you want Nazi Flying Saucers, provide evidence they existed...
Believe it or not, people actually ask for that stuff. Oleg accomodates them, because who can dispute the FM... since most didn't fly or fly much. LOL

Oleg is a good guy so we do have some strange requests that get filled.
