The aircraft part of the battle is Battle of the Dnieper.

It was one of the largest battles of WWII.

Most of the top aces in history fought in this one:  Hartmann, Barkhorn, Rall, Kittel, Krupinski, Nowotny, Kozhedub, Pokryshkin, Gulayev, Rechkalov and more.

109's, 190's, La-5's, Yaks, P-39's, Il-2's, Tu-2's, and Ju 88's will fight to the last for the fate of the Eastern Front.

the tank element of this scenario should be epic.  2 tanks fairly evenly matched without the uber ones. 

The action should keep everyone involved in ALL 3 hours because once your 3 aircraft lives are done you can up un-limited tank sorties so the intensity should increase as we get to the end of the frame.   The scoring of the tank battle does not impact at all on the overall objectives so it is purely for fun and who kills the most wins bragging rights.
