New Il-2 Sturmovik video:
I don't normally do ground attack. In fact, this is literally my first Il-2 Sturmovik gameplay video featuring a strike.
Having flown the P-47D effectively in a dogfight previously, I thought I'd give 'The Jug' a try in the strike role.
Fully loaded up, I attacked a German airbase in northern France.
In hindsight, I probably flew a little too low. Still, made for a pretty dramatic video!

New Il-2 Sturmovik video:
Flying the Republic P-47D Thunderbolt (AKA 'The Jug') against the Focke-Wulf Fw 190A-8 over France in 1944.
Have never really considered the P-47 much of a dogfighter (it is more well known for its toughness and ground attack capability). It did a very decent job against the dangerous Fw 190, here, though.
This is also my first video to feature my channel intro and some new elements at the end.
