For me this would allow you to know if you have actually hit your strafing target and make the whole task somewhat more atmospheric (just like those gun cam footage videos that pop up from time to time, showing the parked burning bombers), it would also allow further strafing runs to be more focused.
Additionally once an object is burning, then like an AI aircraft it can eventually explode and thus be counted as destroyed.
As I spend most my time down in the weeds this kind of atmospheric addition would add greatly to the immersion factor for me.
