The B-29 had the option to fire both manually and via the aid of the computer.

Also, I didn't see pyro shoot at a plane in the video he posted, just a target.

I'd say doubtful considering the LCGs are disabled in the MAs.  But who knows, I could be wrong.

Since they don't really model the K-14 range computing gunsight, I doubt that they will model the B-29 one. It was however one of the truly advanced Marvels of this plane. The Superfort was tough and deadly!

no B2 has ever crashed. the amount of computers on that thing pretty much keeps it in the air no matter what.
