b25h

[warphoenix]

does any one have an idea about what to do with the b 25h's HE gun( or cannon)?

[Strip]

In a word....kill!

There isn't a plane or vehicle that cannot be killed in one shot by the 75mm gun.

It can takeout three hangers in combination with the 3,000 lbs of ordnance.

You can de-ack a large field alone and still have enough to vulch.

You can snipe bombers from 1.0 to 2.0 out if you happen to get in position behind them.

Its one bad ride if you have clear skies!

what the bloody hell do you think you do with it?    

play tiddlywinks?  marvel at the size of the round NO!  

You can kill any fighter plane with one hit!!  preferably if they are stupid enough to attack you head on put it in their skull...

You can bust most tanks with it.  You can kill Vehicle hangars with what 9 rounds?   2 maybe 3 passes???  

Ord down under CV attack?   can kill the cruiser fairly easy the CV will die too with enough suicidal attacks.   no-one is in the 5 inch...

De-ack?   you can snipe ack guns from 3k away as if it is a flying tank.  You can even VULCH people!!  1 round KABLOOM!!!

I can go on with things you can do with this gun but I think you should by now get the idea.....

and yea what strip said  also   i should read the rest of the thread before going off on one

GhostH's gunsight is a must have for the 25H

Also don't be afraid to dogfight with the B25H.  You'll be very surprised how well you can do, use stalls to increase your roll-rate, and take any deflection shot with the 50cals you think you have a chance at.  I often try to cut inside my opponent's turn (using the vertical if possible/necessary), and then pulling off a deflection shot.  If you get your 50cals on target, you've got a very good chance at taking off his wing.

P.S. Causing overshoots is quite effective with this plane!

All you people with those fancy-smancy sights are just dweebs!
Been using a simple ol sight, looks like:  - -              Default sight is all screwy, had to change.
I learned it on the default sight, never got little "ranges" that would only throw me off...I've almost memorized where ranges are for my speed/angle/alt.  So in short, those sights aren't needed, just need to practice...well you need to either way.

I like it when people try and dogfight their B-25H's, easy kill for me.

I don't think it matters what they do, they have a very short life span around me.

B25 is my ride of choice when ord is dead and GVs are IB w/no air cover...can get more kills out of 1 run than I can an IL2.

As for the OP's question...you just look at the 75mm.





No, really.

[Saxman]

I still wish we had the 6-7 AP rounds the B-25H actually carried in its ordinance load.

Oh, the WHINES of the tankers when they get poppoed from 3k out.

Yeah, I seem to recall being highly frustrated by you in the past

Luckily, many people don't fight like you, and think 'Oooh look there, B-25 - I want! easy kill!!!1'  and promptly get all ham-fisted and waste half their ammo and speed on me.  That's when I try an overshoot.

The B-25H is the only plane I'll do it in, I will try and force a head on engagement so the other guy can feel the full force of 8x .50 cals and a 75mm cannon.  It's amazing how quickly a B-25H will make the other guy's plane disintergrate on a head on attack.
