I think I know the film footage you mean. I saw WWII footage once of an advancing tank being blown into the air and flipped - though I suspect it happened because it ran over a very large mine.

T.

hopin also that explosions happening in air, like cannon fire on plane, happens much faster than in il-2 now.

those slow puffs doesnt seem like real explosions, at all. animation is too slow, way too slow.

even firecrackers make faster flash than these in game :)

maybe dev team should check few explosion vids, ill add one for example.

even on slow motion you dont see the flash of explosion, only the end result which is black smoke.

as we know, explosives burn several kilometres per second. in il-2, it feels like 10m per second.
