The CGI looks a bit spotty but I guess the studio had a somewhat limited budget since this is a Russian production. What bothered me the most was the Hollywood-inspired "Airforce One F-15" moment at the end of the trailer. C'mon man!! I laughed a bit when I saw it. :-)

With such a derth for fighter combat films, it's like I'll take almost anything.....but still I dunno man. An IL-2 taking out a 109? I guess anything is possible, right?

An IL-2 shooting down a BF-109 is one thing but the maneuver pulled by the pilot is total BS.
