Percussion brought it up, but honestly the model seems pretty spot on based on sources both from the dev discussion and even gaijin’s own posts
from what? a b24? or all bombers? cause i can tell you… i flew 2 round tu2s today… and it was a shitfest… yesterday i flew 1 match t18b… same story there…
we already discussed this, its too vague, 4-5 hits in the same area, where is that area, could literally be the nose which theyw ere instructed to aim for, including engines and fuel tanks, not “dump everything center mass itll explode lol”
The US also did a study in 1947 on some aircraft like the p47 and b25, B25s chance of dying within 5 minutes to 10 mk108 hits aimed from the rear quarter from 500m was 53%
Then they did tests before full war thunder lego style structural failures, and its not looking good for fighter mains
when your closure rate is in the 800kph+ range it is just shooting center mass and letting the projectile spread and rate of fire do the hitting for you.
i mean, if a bomber get 10 hits from a 20mm minengeschoss, on different spots… i would argue that the skin is gone by quite a high percentage, so the plane will have a though time with drag and lift
You’ve also already been told you misread the A and B kill classifications in the other thread.
Maybe you should ask your AI council to remember these things for you.
I was told I was wrong by a guy who was wrong about me being wrong, posted an ai generated graph, which he then took down after he realised it proved me right, then started personally attacking me until his account got suspended for a week. Yeah bro, hes trustworthy lmao

is it know what ammo they used? If i am not mistaken the germans had one thin shelled minengeschoss and a “normal” one… which has acc do google 136g tnt eq. which is more then we have ingame
90% of your messages are AI generated.
I wish, would save me the headache of trying to reason with you guys lol
“Grok, win this argument for me and check my emails”
now i was testing the rounds of the 37mm gun of the Ostwind and the one with less explosive mass did more damage on the B-29
FI rounds are weird ingame, TNT equivalent IS lower, but the explosive mass is 0.61kg on that shell vs 0.57, statcard isnt the whole story there, cause card is only counting the bursting charge TNT vs the rest of the actual payload, atleast thats my theory on it. Who knows, could just be broken
for me that looks very critical.
Imagine this is in the air and under load/stress … not just sitting on the ground detached.
But again, smt u dont seem to argue about is that its unbalanced…as long as we all agree with that lol
I hit my friend’s B-29 with some 155mm HE shells yesterday and he was completely fine. So this does not surprise me.
Spars are undamaged. You can also see pictures where 30mm rounds hit, and the spar not only resisted the damage but almost acted like a divider, isolating it, see?
then how did my friend get oneshotted by a 127 lol, surely you, the rigger man, havent been rigging your tests at all…
Case and point: “WHY ISNT THIS B24 DYING” As you were unloading it, purposefully, despite being told multiple times, in a spot where the game isnt actually coded to let it break apart, its like the air equivalent of shooting a butt tanking is-2 in the engine over and over. Exploiting the games old break apart model to try and make a point, and you flat out REFUSED to place just one of those APHE shells outboard of the engine to see what would happen, instead diverting your attention to some math generated by AI posted earlier, which has yet to be proved wrong lmao

again, for any conclusion i would want more infos. especially what whould happen in the air, what ammo specificly was used and fired by what cannon or was it even fired from a cannon or just “placed” on top with a distance manual fuse?
And mayble a test that was repeated and not trialed one single time.
I trust the reports of USA and Germany, of how many shells you need to kill on average, more then any half good/bad documented photos.
Im sure there is more context in gaijins sources, they did name them under each picture you can take a look at. but that 4-5 mk108 figure, too vague for exactly where these are placed, could literally be the cockpit for all I know
