So is it better or worse than IL10?

Nice plane, looking forward to it.

Only downside maybe, there are so many nations who need their tree fleshed out a bit, Russia isn’t really among them .

But 10 planes firing 30 Vulcans with 100 rounds every second each is no problem?

Irl it was worse but some of the reasons it was worse might no be reflected in game

I’ll take it, but in a future it would be nice to give a bp plane to China

Was the IL-8 really not able to carry rockets? - it seems like a very odd decision.

Shoulda been the Il-20 Gorbach. Har-har-har.

The most ugly and disgusting thing the Soviets have produced. We have to have it in the game.

What was the Rook’s competitor?

Il-102 ilyushin really fell off after ww2

Is that supposed to be a rear gunner or just an observer window at the back?

Rear gunner it had a dual 23mm turret

I would rather a grandfather of IL-102, the IL-40P

Play tu-2s for that experience

IL-8 is not a clone or C&P. Compared to IL-2, there are almost no matching vertices, and it seems that most of this 3D model was newly created.

Yes, if you read the post that you replied to, I mention that it’s a different airplane. The Il-8 is about 10% larger than the Il-2, hence my comment that it was put in the copy machine at 110%.
