Two new maps for IL-2 Sturmovik 1946: TDH South Atlantic and Georgias Islands
TDH (Tierra de Halcones - Land of Hawks) is a 1:1 scale map of part of Argentine Patagonia, the Argentine Sea and the Falkland Islands. A new and extensive territory for offline and online missions and campaigns, although it has been created with the emphasis on online flight by human pilots.
1000 kilometers from west to east
806.4 kilometers from south to north
The TDH map is set in the period of the South Atlantic War, in the months of April, May and June 1982, and although it is built from the Argentine perspective, with the names of the cities and towns as we know them in Argentina, this map is for everyone to enjoy, regardless of flags. We now have new territories to do missions and campaigns, or simply to wander around there.

Introducing: Lock On Flaming Cliffs Series 1 & 2 Facebook Group
Yes, I know, Flaming Cliffs 1 and 2 are games that can be considered "obsolete" and everybody should be playing DCS or at least the most recent version of the series: Flaming Cliff 3/2024.
The thing is, part of The Jetfighter project's vision is to share my passion for flight simulation video games regardless the era in which the game was released.
DCS is a game that ask for a PC with a certain "power", something not many people has available at every moment. The Flaming Cliffs series is the closest in terms of experience that many people wanting to play DCS can have access to since it was developed by the same company that later on would release DCS, I would say Flaming Cliffs is the "father" of DCS.
I know for my experience working in this project that there is still many fans and many players interested in the old Flaming Cliffs video games, either because they don't have the hardware for DCS or just want to play a good combat flying simulator video game with decent graphics and realistic enough to make it fun but not as complex as DCS.

In order to have a place for all the players interested in the Flaming Cliffs a fan of this saga has created a Facebook group focused on the older version of the game: LockOn Flaming Cliffs and LockOn Flaming Cliffs 2, a group made by the fans for the fans of the FC saga.

I have been live streaming on Youtube, Twitch and sometimes even on TikTok for a while. The views and interactions from those platforms has been rather low. I know I'm not the greatest streamer but it's an activity that I would really like to get good at since I think it offers a better way to interact with the people interested in my material if any.
Today for the first time I received an email from Twitch giving me something called Your 2024 Twitch Streamer Recap. Giving me a report of my statistics during this year of streaming in the platform and suggesting me to share that information with my "viewers", so here it is:
The Jetfighter's Twitch Recap of 2024
I'm always open for feedback and suggestions, and I'm curious to know what you think about my content. Do you prefer to watch me on Twitch or catch my streams on YouTube? Which platform do you think would give me the best experience, and what features do you value most when it comes to watching streams? Your thoughts mean a lot to me, and this will help dictate which direction I take moving forward.
Thanks for your support so far, and I'm excited to hear what you think!
