IL-2 Great Battles | Junkers JU87 Stuka | Bridge Dive Bombing Attack!

[@dr.michaelr.foreman2170]

Evidently, in real life, the JU87 flew at 3k feet and had its auto contact altimeter set at 1,500 feet. In addition, it was ordered in the beginning the Junkers all had to have sirens. They were turned on continuously. This drove the pilots crazy. So they demanded they have control of the sirens. This resulted in the pilot being able to turn the sirens on and off. Also, when aiming, you should have the nose just ahead of the target or fall short (as you did) because you had the nose behind the target.

A Stuka career would definitely be interesting might be a short career. Don't believe I've ever seen a number career series.

[@mauertal]

That simpel rules, Rudel teaches to avoid danger by fighters.........fly at lowest level, and close together as possibel, continuously defense movements of every single plane (flip the wings, up/down)

[@arthurcrego8297]

Great plane, loved hearing the sirens.

[@thebollock9427]

As a kid i always thought all planes made that noise when they dive. Just shows how you can't learn anything true from watching Hollywood movies. It wasn't until I got into reading history that I learnt it was a siren on the stuka that gave them the ideas.

[@metaphyzikal1]

People mock Stukas, and if you were in a Spitfire, maybe they were kinda easy meat, but if you were at the short end of them on the ground, you might've had a different opinion. I met an old Dutch man many years ago, who had witnessed first hand how terrifying a Stuka attack was. He told me they peed their pants... he was just a child at the time (1940). In those early times of the war they used their Air Sirens I believe, to add to the fright.

[@BretHiggins]

Could be a shorter career but it’s my favorite so far with the he111 just behind it. Great stuff as always, mate!

[@tomsbasement4884]

Remind the ground crew "rechts ist eng, links ist locker" on those lugnuts

[@brianpercival1829]

Attacking across a bridge? Try going along the direction of the bridge as it increases your chance of hitting it greatly.

[@conmcgrath7502]

Don't you be picking on 'our Taff'! (you know he is a sensitive soul). First mission and a classic 'smooth' landing, what's not to love? Pax dude.

Textbook Jingles landing, bravo!

Lol @ that T-34 near the bridge. 🤣

I play Il 1946 alot of fun!! The new one might now work on my computer. Il 2 and JU87 on paper i the same class of planes but in realy they are totaly differnt things. One is like flying tank and another like flying ninja. They are used in totaly diufferent ways.

[@Pyxis10]

I'd love to see a stuka career.

[@stuartvickers982]

gotta be my favorite, who doesn't love the siren

[@retmarut4499]

Some kind of dive bomber would be definitively cool. Doesn't necessarily have to be the StuKa but any dive bomber would be nice.

[@jamesrussell7760]

The Stuka was an absolute terror in the Polish campaign, but then they only faced biplane opposition. Those Soviet Yaks are an entirely different proposition. Could be interesting! Still looking for a mosquito, hint, hint!

[@TheDolphinator8]

Yes, please do a Stuka career, and become the next Hans Ulrich Rudel

[@Razarb]

I was hoping you would bring some Junkers gameplay for us, as always an amazing video! Want to buy IL-2 Great battles after seeing your videos, but too expensive T_T so can just wait for a moment when there's a huge discount or smth...

[@ivanafterfive]

If you have Steam they have sales on this game every so often. I got the base game BOS for $7.99 and Moscow and Kuban add ons for about $12.50 each.

My Grandfather was a stuka pilot 🤙🤙🤙

[@conmcgrath7502]

Outstanding performance! Loved that you 'had a go' at the fighters. You need to have a word with the ground-crew; looks like they've been over-inflating the tires again (the bastards are taking bets how many bounces per landing). You know, that whole bombing 'thing' kinda reminds me of a MOSQUITO? Can't think why I should mention Mosquito, cough, ahem, excuse me there, I think I caught a MOSQUITO in my throat there. You know what I suggest you might fly soon? Yes, that's right, you guessed it (you have 'the gift'...), the Gloster Gladiator! Now , that would be interesting, almost as interesting as flying a MOSQUITO? (I have no idea how that just 'popped into my head). Pax dude, no weekend is complete without a Taff mission. .

[@thebollock9427]

😂😂👍

[@michalrozik7869]

So far the stuka is my favourite career

[@maxkennedy8075]

If you do a Stuka campaign use the 37mm tankbuster cannons

[@marktaylor4674]

nice one again... So far Im kind of leaning to the HE 111 It is my favourite German bomber, but also interesting to see how far such an outdated design will go in a campaign.

[@42astrutsen]

Nice plane to play a carrer in. :)

[@MouldedSalad]

Wheelie good landing! 😃

[@KyleCowden]

Did you do that landing on porpoise?

[@thebollock9427]

Or for a really really short career..... The Fairey Battle! Every time they went out a maximum of 2 came back, more often 1 or none.

[@TopSecretVid]

Is it bad that I laughed when those bombs blew up..😂😂

[@peterwilson444]

Just started watching these vids as I find it easier to watch someone else fly then me try to do it and fail miserably 😪 Can do the WW1 aircraft but these WW2 are tricky suckers.

[@asheer9114]

I'm not sure how much truth is in those claims, but I read once that when Allied Intelligence learned first informations about Stuka's design they were absolutely sure that plane with such wings configuration will NEVER work...

[@graustreifbrombeerkralle1078]

The video description still says MC 202 ;)

[@TaffinExile]

Corrected thx

[@panzerabwerkanone]

It's a pontoon bridge. Maybe you should have tried a torpedo.

[@Zinmar]

Are you using the old disk version or the latest available online?

[@odifyltsaeb8846]

Does this thing has a tail wheel lock? You had it unlocked on landing, contributing a bit to the loss of the wheel.

[@halcon1017]

That's what I call a Jingles landing.

[@OutboundFlight87]

I vote for the stuka, does il2 have the stuka with the underwing cannons?

[@Tuulos]

Yes, it's an available modification.

Just a heads up Taff. Seems like KZbin has labeled your channel children's content. Might get into some hassle with all the war content unless you change the video settings in the studio

[@Pyxis10]

Why would they do that?

@@Pyxis10 maybe because we're all so nice and it's just simulations? No gore or suspicious titles...

@@Pyxis10 Because if the video is flagged as children's content and he so much as swears or inflicts death on something the algorithm may auto ban the video and put a strike on the channel.
