IL-2 v1 (combined into IL-2 1946) had a wide variety of planes, including a number of “speculative” ones … like Heinkel’s circular wing VTOLs and their guided AA missiles.

So yes, you can dogfight an Me262 in a Sopwith Camel._ a) I know b) if it is its own thing, that dogfight is not possible. FC only adds a few planes and maps. c) none of that negates the claim that IL-2 v3 is few planes (or tanks, for that matter) that are well modelled, rather than many planes that are rougher around the edges. I do not see them changing that model any time soon as it has served them well.
