Especially the girls in Germany and Russia are hot. Its a Nice series. When watching some of the vids I thought to myself I wish aces high had more international players. I know we have a couple especially thos Finland guys and some from loose duces squadron. I formally fly the F4U and it would be amazing to hear international vox from Germans and Russians not forget the Italians.

Watched first three episodes last night, enjoyed them immensely. The cutting between real and cgi was a bit jarring at first, but once u get over that little flaw it's a really good watch. Also, after living there for 4 years it was nice to hear the language again. (And see how much I still understood)

Was also good to see a bit more subdued version of the Russian WW2 effort for a change, instead of the usual desperation/propaganda/walking-mine-clearers that is more commonly portrayed.

Excellent so far, and incase anyone hasn't seen it, I also highly recommend the big-budget Russian film '9th Battalion' about the Russian-Afghan conflict. Its like the Russian version of Full Metal Jacket. As with this series, you can get it with subtitles on youtube.

The soviets built better aircraft than the russians.

Err... Loose-Deuce are interstellar, not international.

9th Battalion was "meh", would have been better if it wasn't a fictional version of the actual battle.

Probably the worst CGI I've ever seen. Much prefer the real thing (even if it is an Allison).

This series is entertaining, and the rusky field are pretty.

Were the Russian aircraft that really rough in fit and finish? They look like someone went to town on the seams with a stick and a tub of Bondo.

These are terrible mock ups. They look lame like the whole series. If you like to see some real planes you better have a look at movies filmed during WWII.
Something like "The sky of Moscow 1941"

Have you seen "The Beast" about the tank crew? I think it was made in 88, Stephen Baldwin was in it. I wasn't really a fan of 9th Battalion.

Nice video

Love to see MiG-3 it was one of the best early Russian interceptors (with its own limitations of course) and played key role in Moscow defense in early days

Yeah, I saw The Beast a long time ago in the theaters and enjoyed it.  Far better than 9th Battalion.
