Although a turbine in IL-2 is a very different animal from a modern turbine. I suspect it is handled in a pretty realistic manner that increasing the throttle too rapidly can cause an engine fire, and the need for airspeed to provide sufficient cooling.
Taxiing, taking off, and trying to get to a decent altitude at a sufficient airspeed without overheating the engines can be a bit of a challenge. If you are too low and slow, with hot engines, you are really backed into a corner. In multiplayer maps, flying an Ar-234 is almost more about the challenge of operating the engines effectively than dealing with your opponents.
