Well... personally, I wouldn't disrespect Admiral Yamamoto : he was well aware that attacking the US was not the best idea. But, as a military, he received an order, and had to comply with.

From A.I.  ;)

Oh, IL-2 B.A.T., simulator of the skies, With your steel wings and faithful engines, You take us back in time, through clouds and sun, To relive battles, to feel the heart.

In your vast, detailed, and true scenarios, Brave pilots, in flight, sincere, Face challenges, storms, and winds, With skill and honor, always present.

Your epic missions, rich in history, Tell of glory, struggle, and victory, Every plane, every sound, every detail cared for, Makes flying an art, a dream realized.

Thank you, IL-2 B.A.T., for every emotion, For every takeoff, for every mission, You are more than a game, you are a journey through time, A tribute to pilots, an eternal example.

It was my recent conversation after an unpleasant gym session this week. I hated that treadmill and—even more—the advice given by "experts."
Wheels, are you spying on me? Stop it!  o_O

Blame me and my AI for plagiarism, just don't sue us, please.
I asked her (because it's she) to rewrite your text in Kipling's style.
Here you are...
...
Oh, BAT, the king of war-torn skies,
With roaring wings, you rise, you rise!
Through clouds you cut, through time you glide,
And take us where the brave once died.

Your battles rage, both fierce and grand,
With pilots bold who take their stand.
Through storm and strife, through wind and fight,
They chase the dawn, they rule the night.

Each engine hums a tale of yore,
Of victors crowned, of long-lost war.
Each mission flies on history’s breath,
Through fire, through fate, through life and death.

So hail to BAT, proud bird of steel,
For every dive, for every wheel.
No game you are, but legend spun—
A tribute bright to those who’ve flown.

And because it was the weekend and I was in the mood...

We made one more version that should be sung, karaoke style, with the "Sailing" by Rod Stewart.

...

(Verse 1)
I am flying, I am soaring,
Through the echoes of the past.
Steel wings take me, skies are calling,
Through the clouds so high and vast.

(Verse 2)
I hear engines softly crying,
Like the ghosts of wars before.
Pilots fought there, never knowing,
If they'd rise to fly once more.

(Chorus)
Oh, BAT, you take me higher,
Through the winds and through the rain.
Every mission, every fire,
Brings their memory back again.

(Verse 3)
Not just gaming, not just dreaming,
It’s a journey through the sky.
Through the thunder, through the lightning,
Where the brave still live and fly.

(Outro – gentle fade)
I am flying, I am soaring,
Through the echoes of the past…

That's pathetic. With a good drink someone might even shed a tear. ;D

I tried to make a song of it. Pulled out the instrumental part from the "Sailing", then generated some voices for this text and tried to sync and merge with the instrumental. Results were too bad to share.  :-[
