Out of nowhere!

Looks like it could be a ton of fun, though a bit out of place (even in the WW2 stable).

Is anyone thinking of picking it up?

For anyone checking the boards right now, they're flying it live: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5VUrF7AfVBc

I will pick it up, probably this week.

How will the FM of the Rata compare with BoX's Rata? How do the FMs of other planes they may have in common compare?

Same FM at the MiG-15, the thing is annoying as hell in BoX.

I'm definitely going to pick it up.  Should be really a lot of fun in the air.

Can someone please stop me from buying this cartoon aircraft? I know I am never really going to fly it, still I always loved the I-16 just for its looks.

Not me

The general feedback on this is surprisingly positive, especially for a new developer (at least in DCS). Seems like they did their job, made no noise about it and actually released the module in a finished state. This is the way it should be done.

Next month’s gaming budget will be on this and the -190A-8

I bought the I-16 and the Fw 190A-8.  I'm weak.
