PS With IL2 you can do a hard and PAINFUL (sorry for caps) maneuver that costs a lot of human energy AND be precise to make a superb deflection shot LOL
Pulling more than 20 kg with arms and being able to be precise with you feet for the deflection shot is definitely not realistic.
Sure we are Armchair pilot, but anything that will make it closer from the real thing is welcome as far as i'm concerned.
Stupid questions: how many times did you disengage a fight in IL2 or is it only a 190 jock option

Is it, according to you, realistic?
