What's so funny?  The IL-10 saw action at the tail end of the war.

ok put it in and perk the $#!& out of it

[KingRat]

I would be willing to use bomber perks to fly this.

Why would it need to be perked?  Do you know why planes are perked in the first place?

yeah for being too dominating. 4 23mm cannons, plus a 20mm in back. too much #&@%ing firepower

[OOZ662]

Being an extremely upgraded Il-2 (my main ride), I'd absolutely love this aircraft. I, too, would be willing to spend bomber perks on it.

The wartime Il-10s had two 23mm VYa cannons. The 4xNS-cannon setup is from post war period. Also, the production aircraft had the normal Berezin 12,7mm in the back.

Currently there much more important aircraft to be added to the VVS lineup.

Nevertheless, while not a priority of any sorts, it certainly would be a fun and interesting ride in the LWMAs.

     Gun size is not the be all and end all of air combat ya know, B-25H boy

I feel like we've had this conversation before don't forget the P51s too rino

[SmokinLoon]

Nah.  There are far many more aircraft that deserve attention than adding another IL-2 variant.

well b25h aint very maneuverable. that thing has nearly the firepower as my b25, and is much more maneuverable

[gyrene81]

Sure, as long as the engine problems and fires are modelled as well...99 produced by the end of 1944 and the entire first gen scrapped before the end of the war...there's a great war record...not.

If a Korean war era plane set comes in, then give it a go.

[Krusty]

And?

Being more manuverable than a B-25 is perkworthy, now?

You realize the P-47s have the same amount of 50cals but 25% more ammo per gun, and fly a lot faster, a lot higher, and turn a heckuva lot better, while carrying about the same load of ord (3k)?

OMGZBBQ! PERKZ TEH JUGZ!
