Dear friends, to commemorate 80 years since the Allied victory in Europe in World War II we at 1C Game Studios would like to give you a gift worthy of this date - not a picture, not a postcard, not even an airplane - but a whole game dedicated to one of the hardest-fought battles of this war, the heroic defense of the capital of the USSR and the subsequent counter-offensive of the Red Army.

IL-2 Sturmovik: Battle of Moscow is not just a flight sim, it is a living history:

• 8 aircraft with detailed cockpits: four fighters (I-16 Type 24, MiG-3 Series 24, Messerschmitts Bf 109 E-7 and Bf 109 F-2), IL-2 ground attack aircraft mod. 1941, heavy fighter-bomber Bf 110 E-2 and bombers Pe-2 series 35 and Junkers Ju-88 A-4
• Huge Moscow and Kalinin regions map as of 1941
• Pilot Career mode - join one of the real squadrons, advance in rank and receive awards
