Digital Combat Simulator: Bf 109 K-4 Kurfürst Description

Digital Combat Simulator: Bf 109 K-4 Kurfürst is the next installment of a series of advanced flight simulators, developed since 2008 by the Russian Eagle Dynamics studio and integrated with a common free DCS: World interface. This time the creators took to the workshop a German fighter plane from the period of World War II Messerschmitt Bf 109, and specifically its last series K-4.

The aforementioned K-4 series - colloquially called Kurfürst (in German "voter") made its debut in the skies in autumn 1944 and was the last of the mass-produced versions of the Bf 109 fighter. Its characteristics were the more powerful Daimler-Benz engine, modified armament and several minor structural changes that enabled the machine to keep pace with the Allied fighters P-51D Mustang, Spitfire Mk. XIV and Hawker Tempest Mk. V.

Like its predecessors in the DCS: World series, the Bf 109 K-4 Kurfürst is characterised by its meticulously reproduced machine details, including the exterior design, armament, motor, communication systems and electronics. The creators managed to reproduce the characteristic elements of this rather difficult aircraft, such as limited visibility or the tendency to sink the wing when in contact with the ground. The 6-DOF cockpit, typical for the series, is fully interactive, in which we can control all airplane flight systems with the mouse. In order to faithfully reproduce the flight model and preserve the machine in various conditions, the creators have traditionally consulted with the greatest specialists in aviation.

In terms of binding, the title does not differ significantly from previous page views of the cycle, based on the same - albeit slightly modified engine. We can play as a standard in a series of single player missions, or in a multiplayer variant, where by joining forces with allied Focke-Wulfs Fw 190 D-9 we face allied fighters P-51 D Mustang.
