No original capture. Radio chatter is fake.

Fake.  Was for a BBC production if I recall.

There are quite a number of things that stand out, such as the radio chatter and the Spitfire's radiators as being wrong for the claimed time and place.

History channel CGI does not look like that.. nor does any other I've ever seen and I used to do 3D work. I call BS on this being CGI.. Also History channel shows various views of their reproductions not gun cam only footage.

If that is CGI then it made some news somewhere so if you guys call CGI.. well prove it. That quality of CGI environment would have made some news somewhere.

It says digitally remastered to color. Not CGI. As to the radio I have no clue on that part could very well be fake and added to the video as well as the sound.

lol I'd disagree with that.. This is a battle scene from the movie BoB. Not quite the same quality. :D

What Karnak said.  2x radiators on the spit means that video was not shot in 1941.
