You aren't going to see all tracers anyways, because they burn the barrel out, and didn't typically have the stopping power of HE or API.
tracers fly on a different trajectory to regular ammo which could be detrimental to a pilots aim if he expects all the rounds to fly on the same path as the tracers.

Wow.. That would suck if it's true in IL2.. This would mean that the bullets that we see won't be going the same way as all the other bullets. So we just guess where the bullets go?

You're looking at it all wrong, they're actually BONUS ROUNDS.


And, the only reason I hit anything

I doubt that is modelled in BoP, and even if it was the difference in trajectories would be very small.
