Press Ministry Requests $17M for 1C's Patriotic Computer Game

[Viking]

When I found the article in The Moscow Times I thought it was a god idea to post it here as it mentioned the Il-2 simulation in positive terms. The part of” The goal of the project is to foster a sense of patriotism in children and shut out falsifications of history” I wrote of as slightly paranoid.

Now I’m 100% convinced that the posting was correct, not to say highly necessary, as some, most, of the posts here is a shocking proof of what is, and for a long time have been, going on in the world when it comes to biased “education” and twisting of historical facts.

Il-2 opened many eyes to the cold war veiled events that took place in the east during WW2. And I’m sure that the SoW will keep that fine legacy.

Mind you! I’m not ignorant of, or trying to cover up, the multitude of atrocities carried out by Russians and their leaders before, during, and after the war.
The truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth! That is what history is about.

Then and only then will we learn from it.

Keep posting and keep it civil.
