No hostility...it's just that the whole HO vs. NO HO thing
has been "done", ad naseum.
It's a fact that they were used and also that they were
DANGEROUS to the pilot using the tactic.
It's also been reported that they were very LOW PERCENTAGE
shots, especially when used fighter vs fighter. That is something
that I DO NOT find in AH. It is FAR too easy to score a HO kill
in AH with little or no effort or risk.
I can't recall the number of times I've been killed in a B-26
by some weenie coming in headon while I continuosly lit
the sucker up with the forward firing guns on the B-26, but it's
been far too many.
Or have some weenie drive right through me as he comes
barreling down on the nose of my 26 and I have no chance
to avoid him...and I wind up dying in the resulting collision...
now THAT SUCKS, IMO...
So, to sum up my stance here...HO's in AH are WAY TOO
FREAKING EASY and need to be toned down...
( And forget the "it takes two to HO" B.S....it ain't so... )
