I noticed this Boxshot was on some game sites but why isnt it on 1C's site?

Its not in the boxshot on the IL2 BoP page.

This has been floating round the web since June last year. It's the same art as on the in-game loading screen.

This is not Box Art.
It is poster art (btw, airplanes are actual screenshots).
Was used on some exhibitions.

It is stunning. So much detail in the models.

Can't wait to see how the real boxart looks.

Since very end of 2006.
"2007 (c)" there is just a mistake, this art was made and first appeared in 2008.

Thats very interesting.

With as much time spent making this game I expect this to be as just as good as the original.

Also, will damage modeling be the same?
If not, what differences can we see?

Phew.
THere is a long story.
Dmage is not the same, we have more detailed damage model, than in original.
And, BTW, that's only two and a half years of development - which is not average time for a completely new game in a new (for studio) genre.
