Is it possible to use Theatre of War files?

I've never tried it so i don't know the definite answer. But the two games use the same engine and file formats so theoretically it would be possible to migrate objects from one to the other. Not just vehicles but buildings, trees, maps, human figures, planes, guns, sounds... I don't see a reason why it wouldn't be possible.

It would be very neat if it was possible because my impression is that with ToW they managed to stretch the capabilities of the Il-2 engine a bit further so incorporating their changes in the game would give us something between the current Il-2 and the SoW - which certainly would be a neat thing, especially with all the delays with the SoW development. Maybe that is the reason for Oleg refusing to implement many of the features requested and recommended by the community - the famous "it's impossible" line - which the modding community managed to unlock, the Il-2 engine is a bit dated but i feel there's quite a bit more to be squeezed out of it and we're just scrathing the surface here so maybe Oleg fears his new product won't look so spectacular in comparison if Il-2 has all those bells and whistles too.
