About This Content The La-5 (Series 8) was the fastest Soviet fighter plane during Battle of Stalingrad.In the game, you can fly La-5 series 8 in Career mode during Battle of Stalingrad and Battle of Kuban timeframes, in multiplayer and in Quick Mission Builder.The La-5 was the next step in the Lavochkin fighters’ evolution, which later evolved into the La-7, one of the best Soviet fighters of WWII. Its foundation was the already obsolete Lagg-3 fighter. Lavochkin designers simply cut off the nose of the Lagg-3 which housed a liquid-cooled V-style engine and replaced it with a much bigger air-cooled radial engine. This allowed the Lavochkin factory to build new fighters using existing airframes during early production runs.Soviet fighter ace Ivan Kozhedub, who holds the record for the highest number of confirmed air combat victories of any Soviet or Allied pilot (effectively the Allied Ace of Aces), began his career in a La-5. His first engagement ended with an emergency landing, but he made up for this unfortunate start afterwards with sixty-four (64) victories.Armament: 2 x 20mm ShVAK guns with 170 rounds per gun and a rate of fire of 800 rounds per minute.Length: 8.672 m (28.45 ft.)Wingspan: 9.8 m (32.15 ft.)Wing surface: 17.51 sq. m (57.44 sq. ft.)ModificationsLate M-82F engine modification with unlimited boosted mode durationSpecial ammo load (AP or HE rounds only instead of a mix of both)Flat windscreen for better visibility (2 kg / 4.4 lbs. weight increase, 2 kph / 1.2 mph speed loss)Fixed loop radio compass RPK-10 for navigation with radio beacons (10 kg / 22 lbs. weight increase)2 x FAB-50sv (50 kg / 110 lbs.)

To set boost mode it is necessary to push the boost knob and increase manifold pressure to 1140 mm Hg.Engine has a two-stage mechanical supercharger which must be manually switched at 3500m altitude.Engine mixture control is automatic when the mixture lever is set to maximum. It is possible to manually lean the mixture by moving the mixture control to less than maximum. This also reduces fuel consumption during flight.Engine RPM has an automatic governor and it is maintained at the required RPM corresponding to the governor control lever position. The governor automatically controls the propeller pitch to maintain the required RPM.Oil radiator, air cooling intake and outlet shutters are manually controlled.Air cooling intake shutters should always be open. They should only be closed when there is a possibility of engine overcooling, for example in a dive with idle throttle.Airplane has trimmers for all flight-controls: pitch, roll and yaw.Airplane has automatic wing slats. They deploy when the high angle of attack increases which makes pre-stall softer.Landing flaps have a hydraulic actuator and they can be extended to any angle up to 60°.Airplane tail wheel rotates freely and does not have a lock. For this reason, it is necessary to confidently and accurately operate the rudder pedals during the takeoff and landing.Airplane has differential pneumatic wheel brakes with the shared control lever. This means that if the brake lever is held and the rudder pedal the opposite wheel brake is gradually released causing the plane to swing to one side or the other.Airplane has a fuel gauge which shows total remaining fuel.Cockpit canopy has a weak lock when in the opened position, for this reason, the canopy may spontaneously close in a deep dive. Also, it is impossible to open or close canopy at high speed due to strong airflow. The canopy has no emergency release, so bail out requires the speed drop before it.The control system for the bomb rack only allows to drop bombs one by one. 1075eedd30 Title: IL-2 Sturmovik: La-5 Series 8 Collector PlaneGenre: SimulationDeveloper:1C Game StudiosPublisher:1C Game Studios IL-2 Sturmovik: La-5 Series 8 Collector Plane Download For Mobile il-2 sturmovik la-5 series 8 collector plane Should not be purchased with the idea that this is the best performer of the VVS planes. It is, however, a nice change from the standard set and a fun if somewhat quirky plane.
