Popping turrets and outright killing is 2 different things.

I personaly started flying the Spit 16 and the Seafire over the weekend and I have flown them ever since.

outright kill them yes you can make a panzer blow up with a yak. i might have film on it not sure tho will look.

I like the K4 just for the guns. It's v satisfying to see that big pop fireball hit someone. Obv same goes for 37mm yak but you can actually see out of that one so it's not as satisfying. Blind german ftw! Otherwise Ki84 is a lot of fun... it's always a battle of OH will I turn too hard or will I compress! Finecky bstard to turn on the edge

As a matter of fact I'll up the tank at a remote spot and let you try.

And you do it well.

after it first came out I remember several sorties where nothing was taking damage.  After hitting an M3 six times with that 40mm and the M3 not even smoking I decided to bag it.   I haven't flown it since.

I didn't believe it until I saw / did it for myself.  The first two links include kills of a panzer with the Yak's 37mm gun, followed immediately by me smacking the ground.  This is in the DA, but I don't think the MA settings are any different.  Note that unlike the 75mm from the B-25, this took multiple hits.

(BTW, it is OK to laugh at my awful gunnery, poor angle of attack and general sucky flying ability.  I will just claim that it is because I never fly Yaks, and see if you buy it. )

We started to try to the 37mm against a T-34.  I didn't do any appreciable damage, but a few of the hit sprites looked promising.  I can't tell if they are armor hits or track hits, you can judge for yourself.  Unfortunately I didn't have any time to try multiple sorties.

My squaddies had film of their own.  Rifle used a flat vs. rear attack and eventually got a kill as well.  I've asked him to send me the film, and will post it when he does so.

That can still happen with m3s.. 40mm AP bouncing just like Tiger 88mm AP

That being said, the most important change since introduction of the Hurri D was fixing the firing sequence. The 40mm guns used to fire one at a time, resulting in horrible yaw movements. They do fire together now, so you can actually fire more than one shot without losing your aim.

hey target if you practice a little bit with that yak you will kill that pazer with 3-4 hits off that main gun.


on the T-34 you did get a lot of track hits but you did on your first pass throw 2 rounds into the engine. on the last pass you did put some into the turret. you biggest problem in the T-34 one is you had no controll over your shooting you where all over the place. i am in the DA everyday if you would like to perfect that. bro thanks for posting some films on this.
