I don't see why not. This would be cool for in the AvA or other arenas that go into night-time.

or set how many tracers are placed in the ammo load. so you see more tracers near then end of the clip  or as the RAF did in Asia   have a tight spacing of tracer to make the enemy think you were running low  .

Also need to make 37mm rounds without tracers if you select the "no tracers" option. 
When flying the P-39, the cannon still fires tracers.  :headscratch:

Large hot projectile flying through the air.  Look at a tank round being fired in real life, that sucker glows just as bright as a tracer.
