Really don't agree with you here.

It has some very nice points BUT it is still very much an early beta. The FM is simple, you set up the revs push the throttle forward and trim and you can basically forget the rudders and do some very violent manuvers.

Damage model has no colision with trees just like COD and the collision model with the ground isn't fully developed. Last night I preformed a hard belly landing I bounced up the steap slopew of a hill and half the plane sank into the ground and then I proceeded to slide and tumble (Half submerged) down the hill.

Eventually I did explode, but the airfame that was left proceeded in a similar mannor downwards.

I now just shot 6 HVARS into a building and the building was still intact without even a column of smoke,

I recon that when finished it will at least be as good as DCS A-10, and I am happy with my pre order, but it has a long way to go!

I'm not sure how immersive it will be flying the Mustang in a modern era map?

In my opinion COD has nothing to worry about in the WWII combat Flight Sim stakes! The two sims are just too different for a direct comparrison in that regard.

Cheers!
