who let shane escape from the cage?

back to topic

a20 is not useless, if even me can shoot down 190 on it

not count hundreds of gv's killed by a20

bostons, kate, val are usable for many scenario, of course not for MA

hurrican is not used on SEA, and rarely on MA

I don't feel the need to measure my peepee every 30 seconds. It's there. It works fine. If others either fear it or desire it, they can make it known.

I found JB 73's vitural girl to be the most interesting thing I saw so far in this thread

don't think it's a need to measure as much as wag and bump it against others' faces for their reaction.

Ok, I take that A20 back, but Boston is still in my list

To do some damage on planes, there has to be something else as well than just a block of lead with low ROF.

I don't know whether 40mm rounds used by Hurri IID has explosives in them or not...
However it its any close to brits 2pdr logic, which didn't have any explosives in the AP rounds, it'd be rather ineffective against planes if no critical areas gets in the line of fire.

However its funny how hispano rounds at least used to be on regular basis capable to rip off pieces with 1-2 hits from planes... for their relatively low explosives load (and early spits with hispanos had only 'ball' rounds for the hispanos!)

In the SEA, F4U-1C and LA7. They never get in the set. I cant recall seeing the D11 much but admittedly, I have been out of the picture for a while.

In the MA, I guess all of them fill some sort of niche for "someone", but talot of the early war planes are just cut bait.

The one I'm in.

sure was, he ate it. how's it working for you? is that what the mask protects from?

Arlo · « **Reply #28 on:** December 09, 2003, 06:17:42 PM »

Wagged it in your face then he ate it?

Back away from the crackpipe, moot.
