Il-2 needs to be balanced

On more than one occassion playing as a german pilot in the battle of moscow I’ve tailed an Il-2 Soviet plane and emptied all my ammunition (with a 70% hit rate roughly) and the plane wasn’t even smoking or seem damaged. Everytime it just does a loop and kills me. To this day the only way I’ve managed to kill the plane was with the Premium BF-109 class and it was by crashing myself into the plane. I understand that historically it was a beefy plane and known as the “flying tank”, but its essentially unstoppable.

In fact, the IL 2 does not need to be touched,and all the planes are not shot down,it looks like a bug or buff of planes.

I have IL 2 drops constantly, from one sneeze, it is not clear your complaint…

And you forget that the Junkers at level 7 already has a bomb load almost like the SB M,although the SB M is the last Soviet attack aircraft

Well how about this, The IL2 has 20 mm cannons and machine guns, more than one time i’ve fired my guns dry on german planes, with 20 mm cannons! and the still keep flying around, might make a last bomb drop and then finally go down. Damage models need to be tweaked a bit for all aircraft imho, but i’ve gotta say most people cant fly and shoot. you cant rely on the lead indicator, it bugs out half of the time and I still shoot down pilots.

Before we talk about single planes that are too strong or too weak, lets discuss about flight model in general.
