The Sturmovik is very powerful against both infantry and light or medium tanks. Unfortunately, since it lacks Anti-Aircraft it's horrifically vulnerable to Messerschmidts. With the wealth of options that the Germans have to throw up against this expensive aircraft, I typically find that it rarely manages to work out. The Messerschmidt Ace effectively shuts it down.
