FYI
The actual IL-2 was shit. Ineffective. The Stuka, and P-38 were much more feared ground attack aircraft

In first 2 years only. Later Il-2 was much more formidable, it even had PTAB bomblets: hundreds of charge-shaped projectiles in 1943!! And, yes, they are modelled in the simulation with some fidelity (like everything else in the air).
BTW Stuka is a dog compared to il-2 1943, so is HS-129 but I like the latter nethertheless, it is a scrappy fun little plane with vertical exhaust stacks like in a locomotive (HS-129 was built by Henschell which was primarily manufacturing trains).
Anyway, I highly recommend il-2 sturmovik simulation, it recreates WW2 aerial warfare very convincingly.
