Sounds more like you've let Silat get a hold of yer ride. At least on the P-38 they fly out and not in.

Right, so even when they're turned on they're still like 80% turned off anyway.

Well if they're turned on 20% that would be 1/5.

Ah that would make sence

...I think

But anyways! To get back to the 20mm all-tracer rounds, maybe it's because the 20mm fires less rounds and and a slower rate than a .50 or .303.
Making it visible where you shoot, it would make sence to all-tracer the rounds
