At the end of last week, IL-2 series producer Daniel Tuseyev and studio director Albert Zhiltsov took part in a studio podcast. What was planned as an informal conversation on various (and not necessarily game-related) topics turned into a long discussion of the series. Since the conversation was in Russian, we've prepared a summary of the most interesting parts of it. Unfortunately, it's not easy to summarize more than two hours of conversation without missing something interesting, which is why our Dev Blog today is so long.
Today we would like to tell you about a new aircraft that our artists have been working on for some time and engineers have recently started to create its FM. The Ta 152 is the last creation of the German aircraft designer Kurt Tank, which managed to take part in combat operations during the Second World War. This aircraft was the culmination of the evolution of the Fw 190 fighter and Germany's most advanced piston fighter. It was in development for a long time, several years, and appeared at the very end of the war.
