IIRC 2012/13 US was shipping NK foodies and imploring them to desist from their missiles & nuke testing when they promptly banged off a nuke https://edition.cnn.com/2012/02/29/world/asia/north-korea-nuclear-deal/ https://edition.cnn.com/2013/01/23/world/asia/north-korea-nuclear-test/ https://edition.cnn.com/2013/02/12/world/north-korea-nuclear-reax/

http://www.thespacereview.com/article/3756/1 Right after Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin landed on the Moon, the Soviet Union landed a spacecraft carrying a chimpanzee named Boris 504. The Soviet plan was to have Boris leave his spacecraft and walk on the Moon right after the American astronauts did, simultaneously mocking and stealing some of the publicity from the American achievement. But despite a successful landing, a malfunctioning hatch prevented Boris from leaving his spacecraft. He died on the Moon when his oxygen ran out, angrily banging a wrench against a faulty hatch. http://www.thespacereview.com/article/3751/1

Looking at the save file - a lot of units are tired / exhausted from sprinting around. FO and HQ in building are both exhausted and hiding which won't help accuracy.

Also the RAF could provide quick turn around photo reccie (for the next day) that could be fed to front line commanders - Possible for campaign games with a certain % of enemy disposition revealed at set up ? I know that can be done with normal scenarios with a variable setting.

It a shot from 2018 War and Peace show in sunny Kent - I was watching various wootube vids trying to catch a view a sculpture friend said he made of a life-sized crashed Hurricane for this year's show. (Couldn't find it but then they might have dug a hole, scattered some debris and got away with just that...)

I can find the quote above first used in 2016 here: https://www.gazeta.ru/science/2016/03/11_a_8115965.shtml and something similar in gist: 'In a confidential interview with the wartime correspondent Konstantin Simonov, the Soviet Marshal Georgy Zhukov is quoted as saying: "Today [1963] some say the Allies didn't really help us ... But listen, one cannot deny that the Americans shipped over to us material without which we could not have equipped our armies held in reserve or been able to continue the war." Albert L. Weeks The Other Side of Coexistence: An Analysis of Russian Foreign Policy, (New York, Pittman Publishing Corporation, 1974), p.94, quoted in Albert L. Weeks, Russia's Life-Saver: Lend-Lease Aid to the U.S.S.R. in World War II (New York: Lexington Books, 2010), 1' Do you know the provenance of your YouTube comments quote ?

Well done Steve / BF et al hopefully the contract will keep you all supplied with boys (& girls) toys!

Looks like the image was originally published at wargamer.com > https://www.wargamer.com/reviews/combat-mission-shock-force-2/ Unless BF are secretly working with MOD / Dstl.... might explain some of the delays.

The lens correction filter tool in photoshop should help sort out the distortions. Or puppet warp tool to straighten.

Like minefields, AA units can't be everywhere and was used to protect what was considered worth it or on known routes (as applicable for heavy & med bombers) When reading about Paradrops like D-Day and prior at Bruneval Raid they avoided flying overs major towns to avoid unnecessary losses as they had more concentrated AA. Airborne daytime drop losses to AA could be heavy as happened later in Holland and Operation Varsity. And heck Invasion of crete
