IL2 Series Aircraft Skins

During the 1948 Israeli War of Independence, the newly formed Israeli Air Force, acquired a wide assortment of WW II surplus aircraft including P-51s, Spitfires, Mosquitos, B-17s and even Czech versions of the Bf-109 G6 under the designation of S-199. This is an approximation, of a 101 Squadron livery.
 
Unzip and Install in your Bf-109 G6-Late folder.

This is a Wildcat VI of the British Fleet Air Arm, No. 835 Sqdn., HMS Nairana, August 1944. Earlier versions of the Wildcat were designated "Martlets" by the British.

Bell P-39Q Airacobra, 4^ Stormo Caccia, ICAF
 
Skin resolution: 1024x1024
 
Unmarked included
 
 
Generic skins for P-39Q in service with Regia Aeronautica/Italian Co-Belligerant Air Force
between June 1944 and May 1945.
 
-----------Notes--------------------------------------
 
In June 1944 the Regia Aeronautica/ICAF received 149/170 P-39s from the storages of 15th Air Force.
The majority of them where P-39Q (mainly from blocks -15 and -20), with few P-39N (used for training),
and a single P-39M (the s/n 42-4741, P-39M-1-BE).
 
During three months of training, 11 accidents occurred and three pilots died.
One of them was Sergente Maggiore Teresio Martinoli, top-scoring ace of R.A. with 22 victories (he died on 25 August 1944).
 
The 4th Stormo Caccia was entirely re-equipped with the Airacobras and, from September '44 until April '45, was involved
in a very intensive tour of duty over North-Western Greece, Albania and Yugoslavia.
 
Under the colors of the newborn Aeronautica Militare, the Airacobra flew for the last time during 1951.

Tthis skin is made according to the historical pattern. With this plane flew Major Hermann von Graff in a training center in France in 1943. It also flew in combat operations against the allied bombers.
 
...As standard procedure, Luftwaffe commander Hermann Göring banned Graff from flying combat missions after the pilot had received the Knight's Cross with Diamonds. Early in 1943, Graff was assigned to France to head the Ergänzungs-Jagdgruppe Ost...
 
Installation is simple:

Skin historically, this aircraft was flown in May 1945 on the base of the Munich-Neubiberg.

This is the closest I could come to providing a Boomerang for Il-2 1946. In the 4.09 version that i use it is A.I. only. In 4.10 it should be flyable. Choose the Re-2000 as an Allied plain. This is ment to be flown with markings off.
 
The Boomerang was a homegrown fighter based in part on the US NA-33. It first flew in May 1942. It was a highly agile fighter, with a maximum speed of 305 mph.. Actual armament was 2 20mm cannon and 4 30 cal. machine guns and 500 lb bomb load. For the game of course you are limited to the Re-2000's load out.
 
Another approximation of the Boomerang is to choose the plain green Italian skin under the RAAF.
 
If you want to make any enhancements let me know and I can provide the Gimp xcf. file.

In 1944 the SBD-5s used in Marine Scout units in the Caribbean. This is my first skin, originally done in Gimp. 2.6.8. If you want to make any enhancements let me know and I could send you the original .xcf file
