Here are some Screen Shots of the Campaign, which can be both Single Player, and Co-Op. Wink Wink, say no more.... lol!
P-51A's flying close air support for the Chindits. Even in Monsoon Season as they did.
D-Day, Operation Thursday! 1st Air Commando Troop Transports carrying the Chindits in to harms way! The Question mark was the unofficial squadron insignia of the C-47 Commando pilots, as they had no idea what there mission was going to be right until the last moment.
Release!
Gliders swooping into Broadway, note the Pathfinder lights, and the campfires below.
Welcome to Broadway! Once the first Chindits made it to Broadway they were able to make it ready for a/c landings within 24 hours.
In these two photos you can see a Commando C-47 Barely clearing the tree tops before setting down on Broadway.
Watching the Skies above are the P-51A Commandos
And watching the ground for the Chindits...
ALLOW ME TO INTRODUCE IMPHAL MAIN THE COOLEST AIRBASE ON IL2
Here you can see the storage and Maintinence Area.
Here you can see the dirt Aircraft Ramps, and parking places.
The Crushed Gravel all weather runway
Headquarters
During the Campaign you will have to pass up your slot with the P-51A's and get stuck in a B-25 J and then H Mitchel bomber. (this can be changed with a click of a button if you wish to stay with the P-51s)
Even though you do fly a few missions in a B-25J you will switch to the B-25H. The Real 1st Air Commando's had B-25H models with the 75mm Cannon in the nose, the Chindits loved this becasue they would report in a nest of opposition, and a B-25 could put one or two of those shells into a building there in Burma and the building would disapear.
However, the Norden Bombsight will get the job of close air support done when used right....
Not to Mention that, the B-25J had 5 Pilot Controled front Firing .50's, along with all ofyour turrents....
