The Hurricane does not deserve that level of disrespect.
Very few planes can outturn a J22. Bear in mind, it will primarily be facing Il-2s, Fw 190s, P-47s, and other heavy fighter bombers.
Sweden has very good CAP options. Sweden mains, just want to complain about everything.
Why in the world topic about US SPAA 6.7-7.0 are discussing Swedish low BR planes?
@Pangolin_Fan, this seems off topic, and you might need to stop.
Every nations are having SPAA gap, and if we bring ‘USE SPG with VT’ or ‘Spawn plane’
Things are not getting improved, and discussion will be go flatline.
Yes, spawning with plane can be one of solution, but having plan B isn’t awful idea.
If we plays ‘spawn plane’ card, with your theory
US also cannot get 6.7-7.0 SPAA because of ‘just spawn P-51H or F4U-4B’.
Do you really know how hard to pen a Sherman with aircraft guns?
They could get the M114 with a 20mm, It would be roughly on par with the other 20mm AA’s that sit around 6.0.

Perhaps, but that is hardly a factor when CAS can destroy a Skink with other ordnance, which a CAS plane almost always carries. So unless you’re flying a Yak-9K, you have other options. And I have absolutely zero sympathy for Yak-9K’s anyway, so that doesn’t matter to me.
The performance of the Skink’s guns is and always should be the primary balancing factor, and given the lackluster performance of the Polsten, the Skink is fine where it is.
The one ‘CAS’ (they strap a bomb to the 262 and suddenly it’s a strike aircraft, anyhow) the Skink is good against are German players in the 262 (apart from 50mm one, of course). They can be annoying when I’m in the Jabo. But yes, most other CAS will delete them (and I eat them in the Horton).
This much prefers open top SPAA…
Spawn M42, instead, thanks
If anything the Skink might be best going down to GAB 5.3 and GRB/GSB 5.0. The guns wouldn’t suddenly become overpowered or anything, but it would face planes that are easier to aim at, and it would also still be easily countered by most CAS.
