Hi All,
Thank you for your informative replies. So does that mean that firing only two R4M rockets at a time, as portrayed in earlier versions of the Il-2 game, is historically inaccurate? I remember watching an interview with Adolf Galland, where he mentioned that the Me-262 pilots had to line up an enemy bomber and fire a salvo of rockets at that plane. However, was that the only way these rockets were used? If the full 24-rocket salvo is the only historically accurate mode of use for this weapon, then that's how it should be in the game. But if there were other ways of firing them, perhaps these could be modeled, too?
Regards,
RB
