Already discussed on the SAS forum, where Sean2323 made the same suggestion at the same time. The link he gives is to a fantasy, though there was a single prototype K-7, which first flew in August 1933, but crashed due to structural failure later that year. Relevance to any combat ever likely to be featured in IL-2? Zero. If some modder wants to make one, fine, but hardly a priority....

Yes I agree. I mean I am all for 'would-be' aircraft mods, but considering that only one flew, i think that there are a lot more aircraft from the era still to cover that have more of a historical value (particularly in the war) *cough**cough* Defiant Wink

Everyone should include a 100 words why do they want the plane in the game.

Yup, in their own words, not lifted from the internet. And any use of the words 'awesome' or 'cool' leads to immediate deletion of the request. :wink:

Actually, I'd say they should have to provide a three-view drawing and at least three different photographs, too...

LOL out of all the ridiculous ideas in the world this wins No-1 prize Tongue .100 words why you want the plane will not change a modders mind; it will only spam the forum. You could write me 1000000 words on why you want a certain tracer effect, but unless I liked the idea before-hand it will not change my mind Wink

It would not give us more mods, but less requests and with "affordable" planes.

The Armed version looks like it wouldn't even take off.

Though some of the other pictures look rather real.

No, I viewed it in a way of people wasting their efforts because generally a modder will make a mod that they want to make or, if they don't have an idea of a mod, they will choose to ask the forum Wink
But who am I to say? feel free to stick to your 100 word limit if you wish. Tongue

Sean2323,

In all fairness, the Soviet air arm was fascinated with future possibilities in aviation, just like many countries were in the years leading to WW2.

For Open Forum, this would have been fine.


The replies upto this say it all, as far as a mod request for IL-2.


I am leaving this here as an example of what kinds of things not to request.


I'm sure that you will do well next time.
