When we were doing Arma2 missions in our squad one of the best was working a patrol down through enemy territory and lasing targets for one of us up in a Harrier. It was all on to keep him (and yourself) alive to complete the objective. The fact that the Harrier was 'light' in terms of realism didn't detract from the overall mission. As I see it 1C have the same in mind but the other way round.

That kind of gameplay is completely immersive and if 1C could combine their level of detail in air sims with ground support even if it wasn't as realistic as their aircraft they would have a real winner on their hands .
That's what I'm seeing with the IL-2 series when/if we get tanks/vehicles.
