Il-2 Sturmovik w/ Antishipping Cannons
One of my Warplanes - Russian Baltic Navy Merchant Attacker.
The Russian strategy of overwhelming numbers is well illustrated in the Ilyushin; a cheap, rugged aircraft produced in astronomical figures to aid the Red Army in the ground-attack role. This navy variant was a specialised design - Armed with NS-45 cannons, It hunted down blockade runner merchants in the Baltic Sea.

Could you make the cannons in a separate upload? I can't get the cannon off and it still work. Thanks!
Fantastic replica, runs like the real deal. It even shakes the plane when you fire the tank-busters (or in this case merchant-busters)
Around Vietnam era, it was a trainer so it should be easy
@ShiptyCo I'll look into it sometime. What kind of operations did it run?
May I request a Cessna L-19? I'm a dedicated follower and I LOVE your builds
thanks for the upvote!
@bskngshrk thanks man, thoughts on the cannons?
Love that nose. Another great build ;)
Engine was producing much less HP than it should be, for some reason the xml HP mod was reset to a thousand. No idea why. Thanks!@Bagas
