Happy American Independence Day!

Happy American Independence Day!

Happy Fourth of July from the IL-2 Series team!

Today, the United States celebrates Independence Day and marks 250 years since the signing of the Declaration of Independence — an important milestone in American history.

We want to send our warmest wishes to our American community: players, creators, virtual pilots, historians, aviation enthusiasts, and everyone who has been part of the IL-2 Series over the years.

Your passion for aviation history, flight simulation, and the stories behind the aircraft continues to inspire us. We are grateful to have so many pilots from the United States sharing the skies with us, bringing their experience, feedback, and enthusiasm to our community.

Have a great Independence Day, enjoy the celebrations, and see you in the skies!

The Beginning of the War in Korea: June 25, 1950

On June 25, 1950, a complex and controversial war began on the Korean Peninsula—a conflict that would become one of the most significant of the 20th century.

Over three years of hostilities, the front line swept back and forth across the entire peninsula, ultimately settling near the very line where the war began, leaving the country divided into two nearly equal parts.

The conflict was unique in nature: it brought together the cutting-edge technology and expertise of the era's most powerful nations, pitting different generations of aircraft—and contrasting approaches to aerial combat—against one another in the skies over Korea. While jet aviation firmly established itself as a formidable new force, piston-engine aircraft continued to play a vital role. It was a clash not only of ideologies but of entire eras.

The Korean War is often referred to as the "Forgotten War," partly because it lacked a clear-cut victor. We believe it is crucial to keep the events of this period alive in our collective memory and to ensure that as many people as possible learn about this complex time. That is why we chose this chapter of our shared history for the "Korea" installment of IL-2 Series. Though less widely known than many other conflicts, it is a fascinating and vital part of history that must be remembered.
