teh pirate Wrote:As for the Phantom I don't see how its flight would be much more difficult to calculate than any other jet in IL-2 unless IL-2 gets buggy at supersonic speeds, which I myself have not experienced yet after hitting almost 2000 km/h in several aircraft including the B29 (which tore itself apart, but whatever), the Bi-6 (which recovered nicely), and the C-47 (technically only 1,200 km/h but still).
One word and one number: Mach 1
Il-2 doesn't properly model some things. I'm a bit mystified as how you got those speeds (doesn't the Bi start pitching down uncontrollably?). Did you know that it is also possible to fly into space in Il-2? The flight model calculations break down above 10,000m or so.
