I'd never take a IID away from an anti-GV  field-support role, but i've never used it. maybe i should. I always use the Yak9T for the no-ord, gv porker situations.

Very fun watching the turret come off a tiger (even better when you look at your ammo counter when you pull out from the kill and see  Can [ 1 ]  )

I would like to see a film of that. I have never seen an Yak9-T succesfully attacking a tiger. Oh, I have seen it getting the credit  for the kill, but the real work was done by friendly GVs. And in my opinion a 37mm HE round should not hurt a Tiger anyway...

I have used the IID messing about in the DA a2a... you can pull of some amazing long range shots.  I tapped fire from over 1k not expecting to hit and... BAM!

It really is a lot of fun.  So fun in fact that i might try it a2a in the MA :)

Same here, film please. The only damage HE should do is de-track or take out the the commander's position gun.

Other than that you might as well lob pingpong balls at it.

Yep they won't insta-kill a tiger.

The 110C is one of the best german turnfighters in AH. Two in a team can bring nice suprises to a SpitV or other mid war planes. In 1940 its realy good. I prefer it over the 109E, cause the better ammoload and MUCH better E-management. But you need to use 25% or 50% fuel.

Otherwise i dont see the G6 very often. Without the 30mm the G2 is the logical choise.

Greetings,

Too bad we don't have a realistic Bf110 for the BoB.
