I think you all have it wrong.............

I believe the Op wants people to get "half credit" in damage points from the CV itself.  Forget the guns, but rather dividing up the total damage value of the "ship destroyed."   

In which case, I say no.

Perhaps, but main tank guns weren't made for killing low level strafers either. 

Poor IL2's  :lol
Were Lancs meant to dive from 15K on CV's and C-47's meant to park on the country side? :)

Curious, when I talked to Roy at High tech he said there was no points given for ships destroyed. So if that's the case how can you say they are?  Even if they were given, it would be nice to see it come over the text that so and so sunk X amount of ships and the damage points shown. After someone has spent 30 min or more destroying a Carrier group, it would be nice to see there efforts posted don't you think? again just a suggestion.

Mind a question that is going to sound......  like everything else I say?

Did it ever occur to you that Skuzzy decided to pull your leg and wondered exactly what I'm wondering now, why the heck would you call them about something that you can easily find out yourself in game?  You get perks, and you get damage point values, and it isn't hard to find this out at all.

He wasn't.

The OP is talking about sinking CV's by ship gunfire.
everyone at some time has spent a long time shooting at a ship to finally sink it
And you don't get anything for that.
