-After a failed attempt to develop the IL-1, a "lightweight" fighter/ground attacker version of the [[IL-2]]. In 1944, the Ilyushin design bureau decided to repurposes the IL-1 into a "modernized" version of the "Sturmovik". As such, the '''Ilyushin IL-10''' is the result of the experience of the Ilyushin design bureau in an attempt to made a worthy successor of the famous [[IL-2M (1943)|IL-2M]] ground attack aircraft. In its initial form, the IL-10 is essentially a sleek, more aerodynamically efficient version of the IL-2, while retaining most of its main armaments. The IL-10 was tested against Sukhoi's [[Su-6 (Family)|Su-6]] in a contest for a replacement of the IL-2. While the Su-6 could carry more payload compared to the IL-10 (that has its payload reduced due to its lightweight design), the IL-10 offers greater overall agility and top speed, and as such were chosen as the winner of the competition. The initial serial production of the IL-10 saw combat during the last stage of the war in Europe, before being [[IL-10 (1946)|reoutfitted in 1946]] with improved armaments.

-Introduced in [[Update 1.41]]. The '''IL-10''' the IL-10 is essentially a reincarnation of IL-2M with various problems of its predecessor being ironed out (most notably its slow flight speed). This version of the IL-10 is the 1945 version, equipped with exactly the same armaments with the "Sturmovik", featuring two 23 mm VYa-23 cannons and two 7.62 mm ShKAS machine guns as its offensive armaments, while the gunner is equipped with a 12.7 mm Berezin machine gun. While much faster than its predecessor, the IL-10 is still noticeably slower than most fighters it would face at this BR. Fortunately, the IL-10 still retains manoeuability of the IL-2/M, which can be easily exploited in air combat if pilots know how to manage its limited energy.

-The IL-10 offers a much needed mobility improvement compared to IL-2. While the aircraft is still quite heavy and sluggish to turn at times, the IL-10 is able to reach its flat top speed quickly, and is capable of executing some turnfighting moves to caught an enemy off guard. Though you might need to be more careful since the IL-10 bleeds a considerable amount of energy while turning.
