Hello. I've come across this site, maybe someone of you already knows it:
http://www.hawkertempest.se/index.htm
Tempest enthusiasts will surely appreciate it, as it provides exhaustive all-around info on this warbird: technical data, historical photos/videos/documents, all theatres of operations, known pilots, as well as hints about modeling and bibliography (and a mention to IL-2, of course! )
I've been particularly impressed by the "victories" section: not only is every single air kill scored by a Tempest recorded, most of them also provide the actual combat report! In some cases, there's even a reference to German report about thet event!
Worth a look IMO.
Bye!
