IL-2 is heading to North Africa thanks to the series' latest expansion, Il-2 Sturmovik: Desert Wings: Tobruk, which was released today on Steam and via the 1C Store. It's running a 15% launch discount, although that's not actually that much considering the game is $69.99 USD / 64.99 EUR at full price. You also have to take into account that this is an add-on for Il-2 Sturmovik: Cliffs of Dover, so you'll need to make sure you own that as well.
In case you've forgotten what TOBRUK is about, here's an official blurb:
Experience what it was like to fly and fight during the Desert War in deadly Messerschmitts, sleek Macchis, rugged Kittyhawks and the legendary Spitfires. IL-2 Sturmovik: Desert Wings - Tobruk brings over 40 new flyable types and variants, more than 25 new tank, artillery and vehicle types added to the desert versions of the vehicles from the CLIFFS OF DOVER, as well as 15 new ships including British and Italian types which are historically accurate for the TOBRUK map.
