Lots of excitement around the IL-2 series right now as a 75% sale kicks in and a major announcement arrives tomorrow sometime. If you wanted to fill your hangar with some IL-2 content, now is a fantastic time to add some aircraft in!
The sale is on (or will be for Steam)
Here are all of the details from the post made by Jason Williams a couple of hours ago:

Yak-9 and Hurricane Collector Plane mention
Interesting note that the Hurricane and Yak-9 (and 9T) Collector Planes were mentioned in this post. They don’t currently appear on the webstore but I expect they will appear shortly (perhaps tomorrow).
At this point we still don’t know if the Yak-9 and Yak-9T will be sold as separate, independent aircraft, or if they will be sold together in a package. Depending on the features that each of them bring to the table, it could be enough to call them separate. Especially if the Yak-9 also gets the 9B, 9D or even 9DD modifications and the Yak-9T gets the Yak-9K (45mm cannon) modifications. Unknown if they will do that but I expect to know more tomorrow!

Is the announcement the sale? I ask as I thought ‘Flash Traffic’ was a reference to the Pacific Theatre (Midway water de-salinator message).
But it is the 26th now…

I don’t think it’s the sale. Stay tuned.

The new collector aircraft are available in pre-order.
I doubt that the sales are the Morse code announcement but I may be wrong…
