Is that Israeli B-17 the mod for DCS World? Doesn't say what sim this is.

Sweet shots, thx for sharing !
Did the Israeli Air Force actually fly those as late as 1956 ? And what were they primarily facing off ?

Does anyone know what was the last combat sortie for a B17? Any nation, not necessarily USAAF.

Cheers,
Slug

Yes, Israel used B-17 bombing Sinai (near Ras Nusrani) in 1956. Kadesh, fighting against Egiptian Armed Forces.

Beautiful shots. Are effects being added to the screenshot or is there a SweetFX type of shader you use in-game?

No effects. Retouch in bright/contrast and colour saturation. Only.

In some pics, zoom movement effect is added (wingtips from center of the image, for example).

Sorry my bad English.
