You can try DCS world ( google it).

It is a flight simulation game where you can play both: modern planes and planes from the Second World War and the 1950s.

To test it, you can download a free map of the Black Sea area that includes the Russian plane SU-25 (cockpit unclikable) and the civilian P-51 (unarmed).

But you can buy various maps of the second world war ( Channel map, Normandy map Marianas Islands map) and German, American, English and Russian planes of that time ( P-47, P-51, Mosquito, B-109, Fw-190. I-16, Spitfire etc..).

It is very realistic and they are studiy planes.

You can play both in single payer and in servers

glad to witness a fellow virtual pilot here!

no there is no game can do a better simulations than IL2 series. But if you were enjoying the 777's IL2GB(BoS), i would advise you try the elder IL2-1946 and IL2-CloD; you see, the il2GB actually is a failed simulation, the only reason it get the IL2 title is because 1C (who holds the commercial IP) has no choise but to let 777 make use of it. comparing with the earlier games above, GB is hardly an simulation. It got terrible airdynamic model, a rather no-existing AI and unfinished and undeveloped game content and a high price. While the 1946 & CloD, were both developed by Maddox, keeps a wide and simulative and moddable frame.

if u already know about these and seeks for some other air-combat games i'd advise Microsoft's Combat Flight Simulator3 (and it's remastered fans' sell alone 'Wings over the Reich'), some earlier games like rowan's Battle of Britain2, Mig Alley; or the best F16 sim 'BMS'.... there should be more but i just cant remember for now

For single player il-2 1946 is by far the best. Awesome memories of scambling out of guadalcanal in a wildcat or dealing with waves of il-2 coming for your air base on the eastern front.


For tanks I suggest steel fury.
