So expect to drive a Matilda or a Panzer III eventually =)

That's correct, in the Luthier/Oleg SimHQ interview he mentionned that the game engine has been designed with this possibility in mind:
"Q. There's been speculation that the new engine might be used as a basis for other sim genres such as tanks, surface ships, and submarines. Is that still a possibility you envision could happen? Could a player driving a T-34 co-op with players flying an IL-2 in a combined armament battle?
A. Right now, the game engine potentially allows the player to control any object regardless of type. You could control a cloud or a building or a tree, i.e. literally anything. Of course, releasing this to the world requires some extra work, of actually making it interesting and realistic. But purely from the point of view of possibilities, the game engine has always been designed with a combined battlefield in mind."
Personally, I can't wait for the cloud simulation. I look forward to playing IL2:CloDo as a cumulo nimbus and pummeling Axis forces with hailstorms, lightning, and gale force winds
