Kampfgeschwader 4 (KG4) is an online squadron focusing on flying the He-111 in the IL-2 series.

KG4. A newly formed bomber focused squadron.

 

KG4 is a bomber focused squadron for the IL2 Sturmovik series of combat flight simulation games for the PC.

​

KG4 is named after the Luftwaffe unit that flew the He-111 in WW2, serving in the Eastern, Western and Middle East theatres. Although we are named after a German unit we do not consider ourselves to be a 'blue only' force.  As more aircraft types are developed in the IL-2 series we will be extending operations to include them but at present the He-111 offers the best simulation platform for us to fly.  

​

The main focus is flying co-op level bombing missions in the He-111but pilots are encouraged to fly other types too (variety keeps things interesting after all).   IL-2 offers a range of aircraft to fly and sometimes a low level transport flight or an energetic dog fight is what's needed to unwind after a days work!  However, the majority of KG4 online flights will be in the He-111.

​

The aim is to be mission focused and 'play the objective' in online servers such as Tactical Air War or Random Expert.  KG4 will always seek to fly in a professional manner but promises not to take itself too seriously, we want our pilots to fly in a relaxed adult environment.  This is supposed to be fun after all.

​

We realise that people also have a real life and family & work must come first.  To that end KG4 is not initially planning on having a regular squad night but rather to fly on the excellent servers such as TAW & RE as mentioned above.  Pilots are encouraged to fly together whenever possible.

​

Finally, in an adult environment the language can be bit colourful. Banter is encouraged but excessive swearing is not. After all, people do have children around.
