I believe the Gaijin developers were part of Olegs problems during SOW's development. I know that the Gaijin developers borrowed IL-2's Flight Model with obviously Olegs blessing, but he did say that they didn't reciprocate when he asked them for info on Dover. Personally I think there were alot more issues later on, some of them I think were, some of Olegs crew leaving the SOW development and working for Gaijin. When playing WOP there were way too many similarities to the original IL-2 series. I would think that Oleg being a stickler for detail may have made him a bear to work for.
