.50's deserve a buff

It’s okay to project onto others, we understand.

young and slow. took an hour to get past your tears and respond with more cope huh?

No, I was actually busy playing blackjack with my friends.

seems like ChatGPT is being extra slow giving excuses today

Must be, anywho, let’s cut you short of being an average redditor, and let’s actually talk about how the .50’s don’t need a buff.

Oh, yeah, not to mention the fact that LaserDestroy agreed with my factual explanation, while you continue to shun me. Very mature.

“waaa don’t nerf 20mm waaaa!” “ur just uneducated!!!”

Yeah, very factual explanations.

.50 cal is gonna mess up a fighter jet, certainly not a peashooter. They are basically unarmored and have lots of fragile components. Stuff like A-10 and Su-25 will have more resistance to it, but they aren’t immune to it. Even helicopters like the hind will have trouble against .50 from a machine gun, it’s a very potent round. 20-30mm is used because in the short time-frames of having a firing window in jet combat, the maximum amount of damage must be inflicted upon the target.

  1. The 20mm is pretty accurate as is

  2. Yes, if you want to come complain about a subject that you aren’t willing to be open minded or learning about, you are not only uneducated on the subject, you are biting the hands that feed you knowledge on the subject

  3. Yes; the explanations were indeed factual, you can also source @Laserdestroy_1 to second that, again.

.50 caliber isn’t a peashooter, but when compared to 13.2mm, 20mm, and 30mm, it absolutely is.

The fire rate of the aircraft mounted .50 caliber (M3, the model which is mounted on aircraft) has a fire-rate of 1200-1300. The M61A1 Vulcan of the 20mm range, fires 6000 RPM. The M/75 AKAN on the JA viggens have 1350 RPM, and the Mauser 27mm on the JAS and Alpha jets have a fire rate of 1700 RPM. All of these, having a higher fire rate, also release larger rounds in a second. Notably, the M/75 is nearing the M61 is KG/S, just because it has 10 extra mm diameter and size.

lmao bro thinks 1 single 20mm destroy a bomber is accurate.
Som1 plays too much Germany

This video does a good job compiling research the British did.

It takes more than one 20mm shot to kill a bomber unless it’s a pilot KO. I’m not even a German main; I’m a Sweden main.

The 30mm “Grenade” launcher Mk.103 and 108 were designed for ground attack and bomber hunting, not air attack, but it’s still a large explosive mass, and actual mass, which means it can be effective.

look who didn’t watch the video

Sweden, oh gosh that’s even worse.
Also I guess I should have specific it takes 1 shot to destroy the tail/wing of a bomber, mb.

Yea, that’s what they said about the ATGM/Missiles too. Greeeeaaaaaaat for gameplay…

Glad you think that making it take dozens of HITS to take down a plane is great gameplay. I’d rather not have to fight desync even more to shoot down another plane. This would also make SPAA even worse in Ground, which is definitely needed. 0/10, would NOT recommend.

holy cope Text

Says the one who doesn’t like the current status quo. Waaaahhhh Daddy Gaijin, planes do soooo much damage in this video game, please make everything weak and tedious so I can feel better because “realism” is more gooder than enjoying the game.

lol som1’s been playing a lil too much Germany.
