Historically the Soviets built a ton of IL-2s because they lost a ton, particularly in 1944-45. In the game you generally won't lose as many, so you end up with a substantial surplus while only being able to field a little over 3000.bighinvegas wrote: Thu Jun 23, 2022 8:52 pm Why do the Soviets produce huge amounts of equipment that have no units to use it? I ended the game with 14239 IL-2M3 ground attack aircraft and 18743 M-30-4 Heavy Rocket artillery in the pools. Neither had any units to use these numbers.
On the M-30-4, the Red Army first fielded the BM 13-16 132mm light rockets on the truck chassis that you are most familiar with. Later they fielded heavy 300mm rockets, many initially fired from crates on the ground. In the late war they did create some truck based ones. These '42 heavy battalions and brigades are buildable units. My guess is you did not build any.
