Spud gun lovers

[Nemisis]

While it may be easier to aim, with paired cannons, you don't have to worry about the plane staggering on after surviving a spud. I mean, how are you going to land a plane without wings?

How is one going to land without a pilot, or an engine, or even its stabalizers? About the only thing thats going to limp away after a 37mm hit is an F6F, Il-2, or a P-47. Even the, its going to be a rare occurence.

I used to hit the CV hard with that B25H cannon 3 shots each and all but carrier were sunk.

Film please.

I like upping an il2 for base defense and HOing with the 37mm ripping wings off with one shot. I shot a f4 at 1k out and giggled like a little school girl when it went poof. 

you're only allowed to giggle like that when you're wearing your pink panties, and pink hi heels............

Never had much luck as far as air to ground goes, but love the big guns in the air. Even killed a set of lancs with the 25H's cannon at 2k. He was pissed that I never entered gun range  .

Oh you have to try sneaking out at tree level past the VH spawn and come in behind wirbles low in an IL-2 w/ big guns...Smokes 'EM! 

[Nemisis]

No, I have the approach, firing run, and exit down, but all I manage to do is track them, and every once in a blue moon, I turret them. I've pretty much given up flying the Il-2. I think the problem is my accuracy while at treetop height, while having a brief aiming oportunity so I don't nose into the ground.

Convergence 600? I get fairly regular kills. Of course it get killed when they figure it out, and start watching the tree tops instead of the clouds. 

[Nemisis]

Yeah, well 625 for me, but pretty much. And after a few runs at tree-top level, I get to 2-3k and dive in on them.

As I said, I have the approach, run, and exit down cold, but I can't hit anything.

No fighter limps away from a 37mm hit..   

IL-2 is the only single engine plane that can withstand a single 37mm hit except for a hit to the tail.

I've seen F6F's and 47's survive a 37mm hit. Not often, but it can happen.

I bet the jug did in war too.

I hit a Jug in the fuselage and she kept on flying..however..she did not survive the second one

See, see?! That's why the Hurricane works! Two 37mm rounds!

Actually 40mm rounds
