Anyone have any historical information on the tracer load outs used by the 37mm on that Yak 9T?
Pretty specialized/niche info... so far coming up with nothing.

In Aces, we see a tracer for every round fired from the IL2; however, we don't see that on the Yak9T. I believe we should.

I have a secret about the Yak 9T tater.

According to HiTech you don't see each shot as a tracer in AH, though I disagree with him because I can shoot off individual rounds in a P-38J and each one is a tracer. Supposedly, its every 5th round in AH but as you've seen in the IL2 and what I've seen in the P-38, it doesn't seem that way.

I can personally attest to firing off one to two or three rounds in a 262 and sometimes not seeing a tracer at all.

Then you have the opposite side of the spectrum where buffs at d1500 above a field easily strafe down multiple ack positions with a billion bullets displayed streaming downward.

There are two perspectives to view an aircraft firing. From inside your own cockpit firing your guns, and then watching another plane fire theirs.

Hence my word "displayed" in the post above yours.

There used to be a bug in AH where a cannon would spurt out a few rounds at once when you tapped the trigger. I noticed it on the hurri2D's 40mm cannon, watching the ammo counter as I tapped the trigger. That could account for seeing a tracer every time you tap the trigger, but I thought that this bug had been fixed. What I'd like to know is, are tracer rounds more likely to start a fire in AH. Have the incendiary effects been modeled?
