multiplayer unlocks

[Intheboondocks]

has anyone thought of the possibility of unlocking in training? I can't get broadband where I live and would be angry if I can't unlock online planes

I would be upset too.

I can confirm that you unlock the Spitfire mk XIV in multiplayer. I know a guy that flies it against my beautiful La-7 all the time. He said he unlocked it by getting a hundred kills with the Spitfire Mk IX. He's not 100 percent sure though.

Spitfire Mk XIV or Mk XVI? XIV has a Griffon engine, XVI still has a Merlin like the IX but has a bubble canopy and clipped wingtips.

Since I know that there this Spit unlockable, I spent 3h playing with the IX, and god I'm really a shitty pilot with this one, I unlocked nothing

I just unlocked weapons for the Po by winning a 'Capture Airfield' game using the Ju. I got one kill and captured the airfield.

If anyone else can post there details of how they unlocked stuff, we might see a pattern

Ah well, I can still fly the Spitfire XIV in Il2 1946

like I suspected, I started using the spitfire II, and IX and at about 50 kills from playing simulation and realistic I unlocked the following (this is online matches only):

*Spitfire mk XVI (clipped wings)
*Spitfire mk XVI - 2 x 7.7mm Browning machine guns, 2 x 20mm Hispano mk I cannons, 2 x 250 lb bombs

Yeah... I wish ALL planes could be unlocked without needing to play multiplayer. They should all be unlocked by playing in campaign, single missions and training. It's just not fair for people that don't have their console online...
