Like I said before
yea but they use two 50 cals on most aircraft not something like 6 or 8 50 cals like the americans did

And I never said otherwise.
Just that one Italian .50cal is not worse than one US .50cal.
Even though they historically they should, since US .50cals are faster and heavier.
No space magic can make smaller bullets be more deadly, unless it’s WT.
they are pound for pound superior to the Italian, fun fact if everyone disagrees with you, you’re probably wrong
Fw 190 D-9 too can dive, and it’s also a good BnZ’er unlike more BnZ U.S. planes.
Yaks lose engine power at high alts. Even if they outclimb you in the initial climb, you outrun em so you can just buy more climbing time.
Yeah P-47 isn’t very straightforward to play, and the only players that do know how to play it are usually grinding minor nations.
If I was a stat padding tryhard like you I would.
Massive skill issue.
More like they show everyone how bad at the game they are.

looking at your stats i will not say anything but yea its looking bad for you with this argument
Bruh, you’re really fun to talk to.
All you do is insist you are correct. That’s it.
Unless you provide prove, or at least argue using actual game logic, your arguments are completely irrelevant.
If I could swap four US .50cals for four Italian .50cals, I would get the same amount of kills as before.
Two Berezin are already just as good as 4 US .50cals. Get rid of the RoF and the ballistics, you’re just left with higher damage of explosive rounds, making up for the better ballistics of US .50cals.

no the berezins are way better but they just deal way too much dmg for some reason

By the combined power of API with the added spiciness of high velocity explosive bullets.
Also having 1/3 higher RoF.
yea idk why but i like the berezins more than the also very stupid shVAK 20mm it just feels like the berezin deals more dmg and has better range

how do I have a skill issue if I’m better than you? are you skill disabled lmao

you’re literally just posting the cherry picked protection analysis lol, my experience is more than yours fyi, you’re overselling the he and you’re literally just plain incorrect about the damage. berzins are the most op 12.7s in the game, common knowledge, the he usually isn’t what kills though it’s the fire caused by it, same with Italian 12.7s but they’re way harder to hit the aircraft with due to terrible velocity and lower rof, I’m open to a 1v1 if you want to test battle damage lol
Wait, what, you’re seriously saying that after you got kicked by Lein?

It’s not cherry picked when .50cal AP is always going to deal less damage to structure than explosive bullets.
The damage done is basically identical to Berezin HE bullets.
You even get the same 50% explosive bullets.
The ballistics are worse but that doesn’t make them unusable.
They are basically identical to LMG rounds.
Both US and Italian .50cal are basically the worst .50cals, since they both are outperformed in varies forms by others.
Only the MG 131 is worse because it has simply abysmal ballistic performance.
Also API hardly sets any fires anymore, so you either kill with structural damage or pilot snipes anyway.
It’s literally a trade-off between ballistics and damage potential.
no, just no
uhmmm no US 50cals are very good
the mg131 is very good if you know how to aim
“ohhh noooo my guns arent a flamethrower anymore soooo sad D:”
no? berezin and US 50 cals are superior on most ways
1 Like
so half my ammo load is nearly useless gotcha, very useful, and my131s are superior if slightly, while having similar terrible velocity they actually do damage when they hit, and have a way better rof (maybe that’s what’s doing the damage though)
Claiming American 12.7s are worse is a bridge too far
Again I’m talking about single guns, not that having 6-8 .50cals are bad.
You know that your feelings doesn’t mean anything.
How can you even compare the damage?
One has superior ballistics and RoF so of course the Berezin is better.
That doesn’t mean the HE bullets somehow are more destructive.
Tell that to the guy who thinks a Italian .50cal is worse than the US .50cal.
There’s literally no worse gun than the MG 131 when it comes to ballistics.
They are slow and slow down very fast so they drop like stones after just 200m.
Whats your freaking problem of taking every fact that I say and then turning it into me whining about something.
I literally just stated a fact.
Why do you bring the Berezin into the discussion?
US .50cals do one thing better than Italian .50cals and that is being faster.
No explosive bullets and no sever RoF advantage means that Breda-SAFATs are going to put out more damage per shot.
And since they don’t depend on kinetic energy, you are going to hit much harder at range.
And if you want to talk about the ballistics.
I have some wisdom for you:
I never said they are worse. I said they are basically equal.
You get more hits but deal less damage. So overall they are the same.
Literally all explosive bullets in the game deal the same damage, regardless of filler.
Just how there’s practically no difference with 20mm or larger explosive shells.
The main difference is that .50cal explosive bullets are far less reliable because they spawn fewer fragments and sometimes they will deal zero damage on impact because all the fragments spawn in the opposite direction.
… yea i wonder why i talked about the berezin
yea but maybe that the one berezin on the Yak-9 shreds enemy planes while the italian 50cals deal near to no dmg even on biplanes
