Until you figure out that it is randomly hitting in a box around the bad guy and if you are in the box, the probability of getting hit is the same for the good guy as it is for the bad guy? If anything, the guy trailing (good guy) has a better chance of getting hit if the window is adjusted for speed
I know how it works Ded. If you are trailing the fighter being targeted, yes you *might* get poofed. I don't see it very often. Otherwise your chances are darn near Zero.
In reality, the stuff wasn't even aimed at individual airplanes, but sent up in broad sheets at what they reckoned was. ALOT more indiscriminate than what we got.
