I've seen 75mm rounds bounce of halftracks. An IIRC even or planes...

Not sure what I saw today. I fired a rocket at a tiger and either it bounced off (ricocheted 90 degrees) or someone in a tank fired at the same time and thats what I saw. Terrifying when you consider the possibility of killshooter from a ricochet.

I've seen RS-182 IL-2 rockets bounce off a Tiger.

Yes, it took a long time.

Pah, the Spit MK I rips through most planes if you get close enough

I killed Lephturn (P47D11) with a Spit V once using only the .303s. I saddled up on him after bleeding his E and thought "why not!" and ignored the cannon button. Took about 3 seconds of pouring shots into his plane before he went down. He was still hearing pings in the tower.
