Re: Il-2 pilots with 10 or more aerial kills

I recall reading an article on Hurricane IID, and as I recall there were several issues, this apart of performance, noticing that once RPs were fired an aircraft turned into a potent fighter, and thus no escort was required. Also, I believe it has been noted, that contrary to Africa no clear approaches were possible in Europe. Interestingly, some aircraft had been delivered to the SU, but saw no combat.
I am aware of no stats awarding ground targets to pilots.
