Beat the Nazis!!!

[Wimke]

Who cares....but red colour makes a good target for German 88. T34 was succes because of GREAT NUMBERS. It was not really a good tank. When the crew was not trained it was a nightmare in fire control. Visebilety was very bad, so Germans could take out hundreds of them....

Go to Overloon in the Netherlands and study it in a very good museum. But you also see how the war was won.....logistics and recover and repair facilities. Maintenance of engines and material is crucial. The Japs could not do it. The Germans were masters but had too little and too late...

Aufklärungspanzer Panther (was a project, no one was built)
ISU-152-1 (idea to increase the ISU-152 attack power, 1 built)

See the first page

sweet, thanks Radge!
here's a crazy thought that just entered my head - has anybody thought of trying to get a flamethrower tank to work in IL-2?

[The Radge]

That is a nice idea, before this we need somebody to make a gun-flamethrower

I already have a tanks to install it on - KV-8, OT-26...

Really, maybe somebody may create an weapon - flamethrower?

[SAS~Bombsaway]

Hi Radge. Your pack looks great but may I make a suggestion? Could you please add a link for your entire pack all in one? Updates can get confusing with so many things to find.

Thanks.

[The Radge]

I'm planning that in the v4.0, if you don't find it bad

Maybe it's not your favorite tank but it has 2 qualities that make the difference !
The frontal armor of the tank was not an heavy armor but his angle make it more efficient. It was not so easy to destroy a T 34 by a direct hit in his frontal armor.
Then the weight of the tank was not heavy. Some documents says it has the weight of a men/Cm3. During the winter, on the snow, it was a great advantage in comparaison to german tank.

And its wider tracks compared to those from german tanks also proved a decisive advantage when the russian roads melted with the first heavy rains.

I'm not entirely sure what this means as I've added all the extra information into the correct the files. Thank you for your time.

That mistake means you should install the 3.0 version, where I gave the technics.ini entry
