I sound rediculous because I want good and hard fiights between 2 opponents? And not fights like: “Oh… enemy… ok… lets point my nose for 0.01 seconds barley towards him and boom… I won… God… I´m the greatest pilot ever lived!!!”?
Yes, how rediculous.
.50 are just OP atm.
That is not a very good argument since you forget that most German aces used gun pods on their 109s.
It may not split the plane in half but the damage it can couse from one hit can render the planes unusable some times multi hit can down a fighter, and actually according to US military tests it appears that 20 to 25 direct hit from 20mm mg151 where enough to down a heavy bomber, and it took 3 to 5 hits from 30mm to down a bomber.
Effects of 30mm rounds on planes:
No you don’t German 30mm and 20mm Mineshells where self distruct the fuse was a time fuse and not impact the shells pen almost to 2/3 in side and then explodes inside the plane.
I suggest you watch these two vids
Bc if anything the only thing that really underperform is the 20mm and 30mm cannons
Mustang mk1 has 20mm, not .50cals.
So no… it’s 20mm that deserve a hughe nerf, not .50s
Flaps destroyed and the bent structure would cause a lot of drag on one side.
Here’s what appears to be a 30mm hit against a P-47:
The Pilot died in a crash-landing from what I’ve read. The hydraulics were destroyed, yaming the landing gear.
Not necessarely lethal damage but enough to take out the plane for some time.
In WT, you can not take two 20mm Mineshell hits without a wing breaking.
no
The plane in the picture is a spitfire not a P47
P47 is under “spoiler”. It even says P47 in the picture.
Don’t even need to know how to read, the big cowling and slotted flaps are a dead giveaway. The P-47 itself was probably THE toughest single engine fighter of WW2, and even it didn’t fare too well.
My fault
