Maybe a bit off topic, but I've always thought the explosions in Il-2 could be a little better. They seem very brief, like fire-crackers. The best explosions I've seen have been the ones in Strike Fighters, where it seems like a huge mass of dirt and smoke are thrown into the air, and are made more impressive by their duration as the debris slowly falls back to earth. Afterwards, smoke and dust obscures the target in a very realistic manner for most of the mission - it really looks clobbered.
