Comments about the gunners will be deleted. If you cannot make out the gunner's fire, go to the ophthalmologist. I know I did not highlight them firing, but it's still visible. They are set on the highest possible skill level, so they actually fire way more then they usually would. Most of my gunners were dead after Tony's first volleys, dead men don't shoot!

As for me, I was surprised with no (visible at least) impact on attacking aircraft. No need for irritation here, this is not mission author's "fault". FW 200 model always looked a bit weak in terms of damage model and gunner's accuracy - since the day it appeared in Il-2.

How about a clash between a Condor, and a Sunderland flying boat. Condor pilots called the Sunderland aircraft the flying porcupine, due to its heavy fire power !

The old and tested undercarriage-kill: does it every time, or in my case, at least 1 in 100 times;)

Everybody talking about the wheel-kill, but that first pass at the first Condor? Killing the pilot immediately, and that view from the ventral gunner who could do nothing, and that fireball tumble when it hit the water? Damm

Great video, shows deficiency in early British fighters. Even with 8 guns the .303 was just to light to be effective. Thankfully they started using 20mm cannon. I'm still wondering why the US never adopted this practice except in a few types (p38,and 39).

Seeing my favorite plane get killed by landing gear really upsets me, all those beautiful wide wing planes get slaughtered slowly by small tea drinker planes. It was like watching a baseball game and seeing your home team losing round after round.

Did the Luftwaffe ever attempt to use fighters of any kind to escort FW-200s during the early parts of WWII?

@thegreatdominion949

5 жыл бұрын

Why would they do that? Before the advent of the Hurricat, the likelihood of a Condor encountering an Allied fighter hundreds of miles out to sea or even near its own bases was practically negligible. As well, any fighters with the necessary range to escort a Fw200 for even a portion of its patrol would have been twin engine aircraft (most likely Ju 88s or Bf 110s) that would have been similarly vulnerable to single engine fighters such as the Sea Hurricane, so it wouldn't make any sense for the Luftwaffe to waste much needed aircraft on such duties.

@Fishyyy

The obvious problem with escorting a Condor is, that it has way longer range then anything else in the Luftwaffe. One of KG 40s groups, the unit which used the Condors, was equipped with Ju-88C-6s, though. "That month also saw an unfortunate accident befall KG 40’s new Zerstörer Staffel, equipped with the Ju 88C-6 (the unit would become V./KG 40 at the end of the year). Although ostensibly a nightfighter, the Ju 88C-6s supplied to the unit were to be used to perform armed reconnaissance and escort missions in daylight over the Bay of Biscay. It was hoped that the heavily armed C-6 could hold its own against Coastal Command fighters, as well as shoot down maritime patrol aircraft. The aeroplane’s effectiveness in the latter role was quickly proven on 15 July 1942 when Feldwebel Henny Passier shot down a Wellington of No 311 Sqn. However, in the process of getting used to operating in conjunction with the Fw 200, Hauptmann Karl-Hans Weymar collided with a Condor in his Ju 88C-6 during an air combat training mission on 22 July. Both the Condor, flown by Feldwebel Alfred Praschl of 9./KG 40, and Weymar’s aeroplane crashed near Bordeaux-Mérignac, killing all three in the Ju 88 and the eight-man Fw 200 crew." Goss, Chris.

Early in the war the convoys did not have fighter escort. In 1941 the british deployed CAM ships to counter Condors. These where merchant ships that could launch Hurricanes, but not retrieve them. So the Hurricanes attacked the Condors then were ditched by the pilot, and pilot rescued. In 1943 the british got proper escort carriers in form of US built Bouge and Indepence class escort carriers.

Hi Fishyy! First of all, thank you for your vids! They are fun, amazing and simply beautiful, since i love ww2 planes a lot! I'd like to join in but i'd have to purchase a more powerful machine than the one i now have. A little question: has the damage model/weapons effectiveness been revised in your install, or are you flying your missions with "realistic gunnery" off? In il-2 4.12.2 i do, since usually i have to score a 40% hits do down a bomber, i.e. 128 20mm shells to down a C-47, or nearly 900 (!) 7.7 bullets to despatch an He 111 (i did not, actually: that time he managed to make it home!), let alone that A.I. gunners need just a single hit to cripple my Spit...most challenging and fun but not very realistic, indeed! Anyway, thank you again for your works (some recent Hollywood productions are by far less realistic...)!

@Fishyyy

4 жыл бұрын

Hey, thank you for the positive feedback! No, we do not fly with realstic gunnery off, we pretty much fly on realistic. Shooting down a He-111 with 7.7 bullets should be hard. There is a reason why the Luftwaffe kept upgunning their interceptors. To be honest, if you struggle to bring down bombers with 20mm shells, it's probably your fault. From real world statistics, I concluded that many aircraft in IL-2 are brought down by way less punishment, then their real counterparts would be. We are actually working on a mod that increases the amount of punishment a bomber can take.
