During the war, 36,183 units of the Il-2 were produced. To Il-2 pilots, the aircraft was simply the diminutive “Ilyusha“. Il-2 pilots also often attacked close formations of Junkers Ju 87s, as the mm ( in) machine guns of the Ju 87 Stukas were ineffective against the heavily armoured Shturmoviks. In the winter of 1941–1942, Il-2s were used against Luftwaffe transport aircraft, and became the most dangerous opponent of the Junkers Ju 52/3m. Other successful units were those in 1942–1943 operating near Stalingrad. Their targets were not only Ju 52s but also Heinkel He 111 and Focke-Wulf Fw 200 Condor bombers, delivering supplies to the besieged German troops.
