While mods can be installed manually, it's easier to use a mod enabler. 

 

Install JSGME (or a similar) in your "Il-2 Sturmovik Battle of Moscow" folder. In the same place, you can create your MODS folder.

 

Extract any downloaded mods to the MODS folder and activate them with JSGME.exe. Make sure that the MODS ON option is enabled in the game.

so something like this

D:\SteamGames\steamapps\common\IL-2 Sturmovik Battle of Stalingrad\MODS?

Yes, that would be fine. However, it wouldn't do anything on its own; you need to use a mod enabler that will automatically put the files in the correct folders.

Mods folder is somewhere to store the mod

The jsgme  app then takes that mod and it's folder structure and inserts it into the games folder structure for you 

You could do this yourself but it's labour intensive to enable and disable them repeatedly as you will likely do
