agree, i fucking hate M247s lol.
im flying, trying to spot some enemys or find enemy spaa then suddenly my jet desintegrates to molecular level from nowhere
Please read the entire comment before replying. This is what I replied to:
They never did when I used them.
HE-VT on the York no longer arms on missiles…

This anti-aircraft gun urgently needs to understand the combat rating, it does not belong at 9.0. Considering that everything that has a radio fuse is at 10.0 +. Then I propose to give this anti-aircraft gun a subcaliber belt and raise the BR to 10.0. Where it will also be toxic, but at least early jet aircraft will not see it.
because it has extremely good proxy rounds, that’s the reasoning for it being 9.0
thats fun, it was the only US aa that could reliably intercept but I guess it cant now
totally a bug and not intentional
It’s fine. Stop crying about dying to SPAA while you fly CAS
have you ever played any of the 35mm oerlikons? sure theyre good but theyre not amazing against air targets. the m247 is absolute amazing
No counterarguments as usual, you’re a stupid tanker lol)) casual gameplay lover, because of such losers even our bombs turned into firecrackers)
What?
It’s even worse when someone uses CAS, but their winning rates are not even higher than those who only use tanks.
It doesn’t work like that. If M247 never used subcaliber round it wont get it regardless to anyone wishes.
not amazing against air targets? what? got a lot of kills (and deaths) with both the gepard 1a2 and the 8.3 one, and have used both at even toptier. The guns are infact really effective, idk what you mean.
Theyre definetly good but theyre not great, amyone paying attentio n is going to dodge everything its really easy to jink
But despite the m247 having no tracer it has extremely slow shell velocity, which makes it harder at longer distances. But i’m guessing the proxy makes all the difference, haven’t gotten that shell on mine yet
The good thing is it can start firing as early as 6km, at that range most jets in that br will still be flying straight and unaware of them being shot at, the bullets take 6-8 seconds to reach them though, you’b be surprised at how often you drop them at that range lol
1100m/s aint slow mate
It is slower compared to about 1440 m/s on the gepard
isn’t that the m/v of it’s APDS?
