Exactly, because content is the problem with every single "replacement" for IL2 that is currently being developed, or was so.

CloD is still just about 109e vs. Spits and Hurries... Sadly stillborn and a dead end.

DCS WW2, well, maybe in 10 years they might have two or three maps and perhaps 4 aircraft flyable...

BoS, is on thin ice financially, is working against an almost impossible time constraint, and will have very limited plane sets and a single map, and will have to prove itself before I, and lots of others put our cash on the barrel head.

IL2/46 will be the WW2 air combat sim of choice for some time yet.

ElAuren's is right... Newer products have new and better engines from the get go and that is where the future will be but IL-2 1946 has enormous strength in the variety and depth of detail of content. It will take a successor years to get there.

I will say that I think IL-2 Battle of Stalingrad is the most likely in my mind to succeed. It's launching with 8-10 planes which is about what the original IL-2 Sturmovik launched with in 2001. Give it some time.

IL2 Sturmovik 1946 interface is almost perfect.
No need to do something different as the clickable panel and other real bullshit they did in Cliffs of Dover. Improve graphics would be enough. The same interface, the same variety of aircrafts and maps from IL2 1946 with better graphics would have a new game a great success.
IL2 1946 should be the basis for any other simulator that wants to succeed.
It's not because i'm accustomed to the controls or the interface. It's because it really is the best system. Here in Brazil we have a phrase for this, something like "should not make changes on the team that is winning".

I do not know if IL2 BOS will be a success. It may seem so at first because it is new, but it is limited. Only one map, only one scenario, only German and Soviet aircraft ... The CLOD is equal and it's boring. I have the CLOD and I refuse to play that crap. And who wants to fly P51 does what ? I like the variety of IL2 1946. I have HSFX and UP3 with DBW. If they can improve the graphics i'll fly the IL2 1946 by another 20 years. No other simulator outperforms the IL2 1946.

sorry my english again
