I noticed that in IL-2 were missing important something: floating mines.
I noticed too that a collision with two ship sank this two ships in an explosion. We can so create a "ship" who has the 3d model of a floating mine like this: I think it's a good idea, no? Thanks

Hi, Solana Bogan


I feel that a lot of people would like to see this in IL-2. It has been discussed for years, but I don't know why I have not seen it.

Seems a simple idea. Probably not though. But I don't see why it couldnt be done.

If made, these need to be droppable from mine-laying aircraft. Also, their damage effect would have to be modelled, like torpedoes; at the moment every kind of ship will sink when in collision with anything at all.

I've simultated "mines" in missiions by placinf an invisible test-runway4 in the path of ships. When they hit the runway the ship is sunk.

i use downed us pilot 1 as contact mines ,the runway thing blocks and sinks all ships in taskforce ,the (pilot) mine will let some ships through and sink others depending on density of mine field ,thing is you need to set ship to sleep as it travels through minefield otherwise the ships will blow pilots out of the water,

tried using c47 to drop cargo as mines but they sink . if some one could make floatable cargo or make a floatable bomb that could be dropped , 6 to 8 aircraft could make a nice minefield,

Know thats not a band idea
