The exhausts are shown exactly this way in this photo.
The caption is - "An early production Sunderland I".

Oleg! Seeing all these great shots of the Ju-87s and Bombers got me wondering...

What is view from the rear gunner and turrent positions going to be like? Will we get guns with more animation than IL-2? Seeing rounds in the gun and ammo belts move, shell casings flying everywhere?

I love being a gunner on a bomber and really looking forward to flying as a gunner online in Storm of War!

further to kestrel79's comment, if you're a gunner in a JU87 or JU88, will you be able to slide the gun around the canopy frame housing rather than just have it just fixed & aimed with the mouse?
At the moment you can seen the grab handle to swing the gun housing round, but can't.

Have you seen the bonus DVD added to Il-2 1946? It was shown there very well and clear that it is possible.
