I am not offended sir, I am saying I knocked down some B-24's with 8" guns. I was just shooting at them and did not think I would hit them, but you know the old saying "even a blind hog finds an acorn once in a while". My complaint is people do it regularly. I can see I am over whelmed by opposition on the subject, so I yield.
That blind hog statement is very relevant to aircraft and artillery projectiles. During close air support, if artillery was also being used against a target(s), Forward Air Controllers had to coordinate with artillery batteries(Land or ship based) stopping artillery during bombing/strafing runs. No pilot/aircrew wants to share airspace, much less, have a mid-air collision with those practically invisible projectiles. Not an option concerning enemy projectiles though.
If you consider the sparse or non existent anti-air weapons on a tank when Concerning people doing it regularly, I don't blame them if they have the skill and opportunity.
As for anyone calling it 'gamey', consider that in war and combat,adaptions can be made to strategies,tactics, equipment,weapons, etc.. as are in game... It's an adaption to tanks defense and sometimes It's effective.
