new Il-2

[Pannono]

Il-2 Type 3M
37 mm NS-37 cannons instead of 23 mm VYa cannons
the 23mm are virtually useless against medium/heavy tanks in AH unless u hit em in tracks or in "special" spot all tanks have

[Iron_Cross]

1.)  If you can't hit with 23's ya ain't gonna hit with 37's

2.)  If you can't take out a tank with the 23's you are doing it wrong. 


Probably comes in on the deck, no wonder he can't take out a tank, or tracks them.

Best place to hit it the top of the turret, dive in at about a 45degee angle. Or you can come in low and hit them in the engine. All you really need if a few shot's on the turret to smoke it. Or if you come in at a steeper angle, shooting them in the turret will kill them.

Since I mention it in every Ju-87G thread I come across, I should probably mention it here too:

It would be great to have both the Ju-87G and IL-2M3 in the same update.

The NS-37 is simply the coolest gun evar (fact, not opinion)

i hit with the 23mms they are just not terribly effective against heavy armor like panzers and tigers

You can smoke the turret, track them and kill the engine all with the IL2... just come in at a higher angle and aim for the flat back side behind the turret.  You can do it.

It can surprise you, but 23mm in AH quite effective against all tanks while in RL it was "virtually useless against medium/heavy tanks"

Yeah, 50cals too. I love it when a tiger gets jeep owned.

I fly Bish but if you want you can fly with me some time. As long as Panzers and M4's are roaming around should be an easy 4 kills. I never carry ord in an IL-2 cause the guns take care of business.

I hit them easy with IL2...I can kill their turret, take a track, kill engine, and kil them all together...

I can kill panzers, Osti,  whirlybirds and the rest of the lesser armored GV's with the 23's. T-34's and Tigers are much harder for me but know people do kill them with the 23's. The rockets are usless for me, but again people do get kills with them.

Need an IL-10

No, we need PTABs for IL-2 first
