COMBAT PILOT: NEW PACIFIC THEATRE FLIGHT SIM! 

Loved the pacific theatre ever since Aces over the Pacific in 1992 and of course Il2 Pacific fighters. They're the only sims with a wide range of aircraft and campaign modes so would be great to see a modern sim with those boxes ticked.

I'm really excited to see what comes of this new sim! The Pacific theater is so under represented, there is a lot of areas they can be the leader in quite easily.

So this ks where IL2 PTOW is going lol. I am happy for the news. Best of luck to Jason and the team!

When I was younger I researched the pacific theater quite a bit and wanted to buy Pacific Fighters when it came out… but my parents wouldn’t let me. I play War Thunder but would like to get into sims, very interested in this! Thanks for sharing

I still remember pacific strike, and I loved the fact you can talk to the cook, and other people on the ship, i hope the new game will have some characters :D

I cannot wait! I’ve been playing Il2 a lot lately, and can only imagine flying in the pacific. I still need to get into rise of flight though, as I’ve yet to try it

Realizing this was posted almost a year ago...the Newest Free Multiplayer Air Combat Simulators apps (yes mobile) are Fighter Wing 3.1 and Gunship 4 open beta. Cheers!!

Omgosh. I wish I hadn't seen this. Now I'm going to be pining for this sim for years.

YEEEEEEEEEEEEESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FINALLLLLLLLLLLY !!!!!!! OOOOOH BOY, dude i first learnt to land a plane in f6f-5 hellcat on an american flat top at around age 11 yrs old in bad weather i played pacific fighters for decades after on and off....i can't wait to see this in a modern engine, my father found a setting in config files for the A.I after changing it......i've still to this day not seen A.I as good as pacific fighters, i bullshit you not, i watched my father in the f6f-5 hellcat chasing a Zero at just above tree top level.....do you know what this mad lad Zero pilot did.....he tried to pull a the world war 2 equivalent of cobra maneuver, he pulled up so hard on stick and kicked the rudder in he went to sorta flat spin around the yaw axis for like two revolutions to dodge the incoming fire from my father hellcat and the A.I Zero pilot very.....so very nearly pulled it out of the quick spin he did but at last second couldn't and crashed into the tree.......my jaw frigging dropped, the A.I was capable of that and being varied enough in their skill level they could make mistakes.....don't think Il-2 great battles has that good of A.I, they better improve it.

Awesome news.

It would be nice if NOR got on this project, I am all in, I hope this will happen. Thanx. and good luck.

so excited

YAY!!

1:05 Wow, this really looks like a very good, well researched PTO flight simu- IS THAY AN AMAGI CLASS BATTLECRUISER ON THE TOP RIGHT?!

My beef with the current run of IL2 is that it feels slow, which is how the CFS series always felt to me and how I got into IL2 / Pacific Fighters / 1946. I'm really hoping that this is reproduced in a similar fashion as the early series. 1942 timeframe would allow for Guadalcanal, Aleutians, and Midway. Maybe even early Philippines, but if it to be Wildcats vs Zeroes then prolly not so much that one. I did love my P-40 though :-)

I hope they release it for pc and all the platforms.

👍👍👍

I want to pilot a Dauntless or Val dive bomber not fly a Zero or Wildcat. I hope the strike aircraft will be flyable, and not just the fighters.

Should have called it First Team

Can’t wait for this. Now that the IL2 devs are actively supporting Putin on social media I want nothing to do with those clowns.
