bla bla update  Back in the day no il2 could fly around and kill 1/2 a dozen tanks and no matter how much mc gunning you do to them they r nvr downed. The il2 was most acceptable to damage from the bottom,exactly where we shoot them,but nothing happens.

"Back in the day" I don't think the Il2 used 37mm cannons.

They did so! The il-2 was the most produced aircraft in history with 36,000 produced and many of them were used for anti tank duty! If you are tired of them then    get good in a flak. or learn to fire your tank gun at a plane! i got 11 plane kills in a panzer in 1 sortie once because the guy kept upping an il-2 and firing on the deck welll into my turret range.

To be honest, real IL-2 didnt use 23 or 37 much vs armors, they used special antitank hollow bombs which was real bane for armors.

Back in the day, sure they could.  23mms are deadly enough to Panzers and lighter vehicles.  The Sherman is a bit more challenging, but also killable.  It is all about angle and auger avoidance.

The 37mm upgrade is quite acceptable IMO if for no other reason than as a counterbalance to the ease at which Wirbys (at least the ones I am not shooting from) can take down low flying attackers.
