there was not so many duels and dogfights. like 90% of shot down Pilots never noticed there was another Plane shooting at them. all MG will basically shoot straight ahead, and that should give a shotgun like Effect where you hit along the whole Plane and have high chances that some bullets find Vital PartsĪlso in Real. When you set the Convergence to very far. when sniping dont work, use "Salt Dispenser" Marksmanship, I read lot of War Diarys and 20mm HE would not damage a IL2 when shoot from below,the Airfield Protection Guns tried to secure lots of 20mm AP-T for that reason.īut from other Planes, when shot above and behind on the Wood/Alu Structures the Il2 should brake apart.Īnd for the 50 Cals. Originally posted by boris.glevrk:It is a problem that has been plaguing combat flight sims for ages. Otherwise good luck trying to shoot down a thing with the Ki-43 (2x 7.7mm-13mm MGs). In fact you should count yourself lucky this game doesn't have Pacific theater yet. Smaller caliber inefficiency has been a thing for years. You can also bet on the unlikely case of killing the pilot.
Only hits to control surfaces and tailplanes will actually register, and your best bet is to either disable its both elevators, both horizontal stablizers or the vertical stablizer. Now, we know Spit I can shoot down an 109E because it did happen, multiple times, in history.īut in that level it's next to impossible. In one of the tutorials you need to shoot down a Bf 109E with a Spitfire I. It makes 30 cals and 50 cals entirely useless, and 20/30mms nearly essential to make a difference in air combats.įor example, back in the days there was this game called Warbirds 2012. It is a problem that has been plaguing combat flight sims for ages.įor example, I don't believe a 20mm should fail to shoot down an IL-2 even after lining up a string of perfect hits along the entire main wing (constant hit marks, strings of flashes and smokes, no effect on flight performance).īasically, almost all combat flight sims have been exaggerating the effects of calibers.
