Okay, I was looking at the new F-86 and MiG-15 mods, and I realised the Bae Hawk jet trainer used by the RAF Red Arrows display team has a fairly similar flight envelope, IE sub-Mach 1 top speed and no thrust vectoring or other features that might be beyond the scope of the Il2 engine in its current form. So, it seems possible to me at least that this plane could be made and introduced to this game, the only new feature that would need to be made would be the HUD, and since this is not a system used for air-to-air or air-to-ground combat, it could possibly be faked using a large partially clear, partially coloured texture of the kind used for gunsights, but linked to the pitch/roll indicator.

If anyone is interested then this does seem to be the kind of project that while it wouldn't really add anything to the WWII flightsim part of Il2, it would be a very interesting and different kind of aircraft to model, and one that a lot of people would enjoy.
