IL-2:Battle of Stalingrad. IL-2, The Flying Tank 

This is actually one if the best videos I've seen, honestly. Keep it up, and keep making more.

"Epic" doesn't do it justice. Great work! Both, on editing the video and the airfield raid. It is impressive how much havoc two IL-2s can wreak on a whole airfield.

Your atmospherics get better & better & in this vid one can all but smell the damp earth & the dawn ground mist in August. Also, I like the instant when the number two pilot kisses the river's face with his left wingend! I note these IL-2's are early birds, before "Uncle Joe" okayed resumed production of the plane with the gunner's position.

This and your Kanonenvogel were the first ever two videos that I've seen of Il-2 BoS. No better ad has ever been made, I originally thought these were some extremely well-made CGI short films, couldn't believe at the time that a game can look so great and have such good physics. It may feel a little old today, almost a decade later, but I finally got it. It still does hold up, either way, and it still looks good for today's standards. Tho heck, what am I talkin', even good old Il-2 1946 is still the best WW2 sim in some aspects to this day, it's kind of funny. But either way, thank you for your cinematic artwork, it's been a joy to watch.

Gotta love the sound of "landing" in the first seconds... As if someone threw a bag of tin cans in a dumpster. Or a knight in full armour, falling off his horse, Plus 18:57 , the look on his face: "So, I'm gonna now sit here, in the middle of a field, inside my cosy half of a plane. And the whole world can bugger off."

I love your videos Zetexy! That was so tight! At 23:00 when you were straffing it was like that scene in Black Hawk Down when the MH-6 Little Birds come in with their mini-guns in tandem and when the first one rolls away, the second immediately starts firing. Unstoppable man. I love it when a plan comes together.

AWESOME! Такое внимание к мелочам! Ни одного плохого кадра, все выверено! Браво!

Awesome footage with a nice wing splash. I Fly the IL2 in the ACG for the (Esk. 1) 233rd Fighter Aviation Regiment and love every minute of it

Очень круто,смотришь ролики чувствуешь себя на месте этого лётчика!Спасибо большое!!

I keep coming back to watch this. Outstanding.

VERY Good video editing - really enjoyed your cuts and view changes! It was like a short movie - keep up the good work!

Amazing video of IL-2: Battle of Stalingrad, with the Ilyushin IL-2 Sturmovik. I like the part where the tip of one of the IL-2 touches the river.

That was absolutely brilliant! Beautiful cutting and almost cinematic drama. Wonder how long it took to put this together. An absolute joy to watch. I've just been flying the Sturmovic for the first time and I think I like it. Character in spades!

Very nice, as usual. There is a lot of work here, both setting up the mission and editing. Both of which were done very well.

A classic which I come back to watch often. Well done.

Incredible videos, all of them keep up the great work!!

Если бы он зацепил воду крылом, то выравнивал бы уже на дне ))) Попробуйте прыгнуть с вышки пятиметровой и сразу почувствуете, какой твёрдой может быть вода. Вспомните, как прыгают плоские камешки по воде, а какая у них скорость?

Excellent CGI video of the IL2 Sturmovik! It's not generally known but a lot of Russian women pilots flew these in combat.

Читал, что в таких ситуёвинах лётчики приземлялись и забирали второго. Выбрасывали парашуты и улетали один у другого на коленях.

The most interresting weapon a Il 2 Sturmovik could carry was 100 little bombs of 1,5 kilo each. And when all released over a german tank some of them would hit the thin top armour and the turret hatch. And then Fritzie was not so happy with his job anylonger. Hah ho ho heh he hah hah.

you create actual historical movies about how these aircraft really operated. Please continue! gg

It got one weakness according to a German Ace, the cooler I think below the fusalage is weak. It is not armored. The rest are armored . Small caliber machine gun if fighter plane is not enough to penetrate the skin of the bomber. Besides it is too heavy that trying to manuever at low altitude causes it to crash. Maybe trying to prevent a German fighter to target its cooler intake, and its bomb slung underneath the wings it flies at low altitude.

Thank you very much for the GREAT Video....Nice pics, great recordings..... Thank you for the emotional little story lg Michael

Outstanding. Another superb video. Congratulations.

IL2 is improving nicely... very good immersion!

Даа уж!!! Посмотрел и подумал как же сложно было управление и вовсе воевать нашим солдатом в том во втором мировой войне. А ет игра всеволиш но и здесь как сложно шум гам ориентир по местности там с высока всё по-другому смотрится же. Вечная память нашим дедам.

Благодарю за труд!

Как красиво крылом воду зацепил! Супер видео, подписался!

Such a dope video of my favorite plane

Love your full-story style!

WOW Great action and flying!

7:20 Think I'll dip my wing! 15:40 Think I'll take the air! Devastating raid by the fastest tank I've ever seen! Sturmoviks rule.

Great video. Thanks for making and showing it.

Currently, in RUSSIA are building IL-2.for war movies , Air festivals, ..Also Lavochkin LA-5FN/7/9,Yakovlev YAK -7/9,Mig 3, Petlyakov Pe-2,Tupolev Tu-2,I-16 among others.Eternal that noble Ilyushin IL-2. Good skillful piloting By YANDEX.Translate

Excellent job. Well done. Bomb fuses a bit too long I think. Meant we missed some of the explosions, but great stuff.

The video is AMAZING. I love to make this plane on 1:48 escale; a lot of Historic stuff runs throught its wings and engine, and of course inide its cockpit.

Well... Guess you got to wait for Yuri to bring the tow truck...

When that wing hit the river I expected it to faceplant

During the Battle of Stalingrad, attack aircraft did not fly without escort fighters. Moreover, there was a strictest order on the criminal responsibility of a fighter pilot for shooting down an IL-2, if his actions to cover the attack aircraft were deemed erroneous, according to the current instructions. And yet, in the course of the Stalingrad battle single IL-2 practically did not fly. All air regiments of the 17th and 18th Air Armies were equipped with double ones.

Ha! Ha! Recipient of the "Hero of the Soviet Union", T. Kuznetsov, survived the crash of his Il-2 in 1942 when shot down returning from a reconnaissance mission. Kuznetsov escaped from the wreck and hid nearby. To his surprise, a German Bf 109 fighter landed near the crash site and the pilot began to investigate the wrecked Il-2, possibly to assist Kuznetsov, or to look for souvenirs. Thinking quickly, Kuznetsov ran to the German fighter and used it to fly home, barely avoiding being shot down by Soviet fighters in the process

hey dude good job on those videos they're awesome it's just like a movie too awesome bro good job

The graphics and details are awesome!!! And your cuts too ;) Like your channel, thumps up :)

Миллион лайков! Отправил в "Избранные".

Let me see, so I am watching a couple of planes strafing again and again an airfield... and I enjoy it!!!!

The Russians lost 16000 IL2s, almost the entire production run of a typical fighter, in the last two years of the war alone. This was a suicide mission. Surviving 5 missions was a feat. Surviving 10 qualified you as a Hero of the Soviet Union. They were so cheaply constructed the gunner didnt even have a seat to sit on, just a leather strap.

Класс,посмотрел и пошел сдувать пыль с джойстика.

It makes me happy they modeled the startup smoke and flame.

This simulador its better than cocaine

Great job. I really enjoyed watching it.

awesome video, great pilots!

Very Well done!!! was a thrill to watch!

This video is OUTSTANDING, SPECTACULAR, AWESOME - Great job --~o

Great video, really enjoyed it. Well done.

I like how the iL2 even has nice rims.

The bottom of the engine of an IL 2 is almost unarmoured. The top and side from the engine to the wing is hard to hit.

Very well edited! Great story. You have a new subscriber. Salute

Loved it .....more please

What a grim looking pilot.... Not one smile even after crash no change of expression.... Gangsta!

Exellent! Perfect!

Nice video... Just wanted to say I have shot down many IL-2's in my BF-109. Cheers!

The Death Circle is coming...

14.15 -трассы,рикошеты,представляю что гансы чувствовали!

excellent . the orange afternoon sunlight was superb . russian landscape was beautifully created . make more .

Yeah wow great video I was mesmerized

Best war movie ever

Next time, Kevlar should pray harder to the RNG gods. :) Another great vid!

Wonderful work! Thank you for it. Question: Are you the pilot on display in these vids?

>>---------------------------> NOTE TO SELF: In a two plane ground attack -- don't be the second plane.

un buen aterrizaje contra el suelo. a good landing on the ground. lo llenaron de corchos. he was filled with corks.

Impressive ! But we also see that we are not in 1941 and camerade ship has deteriorated further. In Rudel's day no emergency landed crew was left behind, no way ! not so today. That surviving IL-2 could have landed and take up the stranded pilot easily in that large cockpit. Also attacking the same airfield trice always from the same direction was probably less than great tactics, the more they almost got as much as they handed out. Those RS82 rockets must be filled with mini-nukes as the IL-2's 20 or 23 mm bullets easily rivalling a 88mm shell.

great ride thanks for the video

A pure beast!

Realy cool!

Скажи, пожалуйста, ты ролик в кампании записывал, или миссию специально под себя создавал? Какой уровень бота-ведомого выставлен? Заранее спасибо.

I loved it ! Thanks !

Awesome video - what are your settings and pc specs?

wow ..... fantastic !.....

Да супер пупер герой икс.👍

Они охренели,почему фонари открыты?.Я понимаю,игра,но парой на аэродром,без истребительного прикрытия,первый заход они еще сделают а,на втором они покойники.

8:22 "Hello, Hello!"

I sometimes think about having these old-timer WW2 war birds restored. Since I've just received most recent news about the quad copter unmanned drones. 🐦 🐦‍⬛ 😕 🤔 😪 😒 🐦

+ZETEXY CHANNEL ... actually your videos are a show ... I'm going to upgrade my PC and there I can play IL-2: Battle of Stalingrad. But meanwhile, I'm training in Rise of Flight. You can also play with various camera angles, which for me is spectacular. The immersion in the game is total. I have some videos on my channel, but nothing that compares to your work. But I think I'm learning .... Continue with your spectacular videos ..... a big hug.

That was great

Great flying tank...

Thank u verry much!

Вот это клип! Здорово!

Why you didn't take up your comrad?

Great shots!

You, Sir, are an artist, a genius, a storyteller, and a military aviation historian. I wish you could get a no-strings-attached GRANT, (even though there’s no such thing!) ... I’m liking, subscribing, and sharing. If you aren’t already passing this skill set on to some similarly gifted apprentice (s), you must do so right away.

I've heard many good words about IL-2 and It was cybersport as I remember

Love this!!!!

nice vid man love it

Very good!

Didn’t the Sturmovik have a rear-seat gunner?

Would love to see a sequel to this :)

Great job.👍🏻

very good

Really, really good! More!

Nice video
