17 planes, hope one is a He-111 with varing armourments - ie add 20 mm cannons for less bomb load. I would also like to see a Hampden and a fairey Battle but will be happy that modders will be allowed to add such.

At least by mid 2010 i should have a NEW computer, whether it's a PC or not will be a turning point!
You said recently you want it released for the 70th Anniversary of the Battle of Britain. That would be in September 2010. Are you confident flight simmers around the world will be flying Storm of War: Battle of Britain in October 2010?
Oleg: Yes, it is our general plan. Maybe it will arrive earlier. I can't say right now the exact date. But by October 2010 (if not before) Storm of War: Battle of Britain should have many thousands of users.
Doug: At one point you commented that Storm of War: Battle of Britain was "60% completed". Considering the original scope has been expanded, would you be able to give us a percentage based on the new expanded project scope?
Oleg: The main content is ready now. 10% of the content — such as the ships and some of the ground objects on the airfields — are all that is left to be done. At the same time we are currently adding new 3D graphic effects and other features to the Storm of War series engine, and make the campaign, animate people, test and retest, etc. During the year we will spend time completing the Storm of War series engine and the first project, Storm of War: Battle of Britain. So to say that it is now 80% complete would be accurate.

The above does not say it will be released in 2010. Read the highlighted parts in context of what was said.

I think we always lose something in translations from Russian to English. I suggest anyone with thoughts or questions go back a carefully re-read the interview. Don't skim, read it carefully.
