I've scored some kills, but it's more pray and spray than anything in my case with the 20mm. I like the 7.92mm machine guns though; they're much more effective than in the old Il-2, where they were basically useless.

The old Il2 Mg17's were effective until some decided to change something and they become less effective over the patchings it received.

Stuka's strafing trucks has become a chore in the later IL2 1946 versions compared to the earlier Mg17 versions.
