They turn in this video, play it in 720 and you can see. At 360 it's not so evident.

As far as people dying I'd imagine something similar to what we have now in IL2 for the pilots would be the best solution, that is when a person dies they just go limp - no blood or flying body parts or anything over the top just a basic "hey, you died".

The bodies, of course, would disappear after a short time. Or another work-around is to use the "run away" trick where the AI would always see you coming and they'd scatter, I think this would especially be cool for animals, I imagine buzzing a herd of sheep like a helicopter herder

in the same way submarines ejected oil and garbage to fool a depth charging surface boar, maybe the pilot sprayed some can of tomato juice on his cockpit glass

i'd prefer to have "gore", but can understand it might be a moral/ethical issue not to have it included for minors (and affecting game rating)

Maddox Games has to take into consideration that some countries are squeamish regarding gore in PC games (Germany is unfortunately one of the most squeamish ones ). That means gore could very likely lead to a detrimental age rating which would not only hamper marketing efforts but also sales. For example games with severe gore effects end up on an index list in Germany which means you can't do any kind of public ads for them, they can't be placed on the shelves and have to be sold "under the counter" (so to speak).

It may be some variant of a Morris C8, though the headlights look too high

In Il-2 this line doesn't work in the unmodified international version. The mere ability to enable such gore effects causes that "indexing" in Germany so BlueByte ordered Maddox Games to switch that line off in the international version and Ubisoft never changed that. And given that in my opinion that political correctness thing has grown a lot worse than ten years ago it's highly improbable that Oleg will do such a thing.
