First off the 40mm cannons rock. Second you are doing the wrong angle of attack. When attack heavily armored vehicals like the tiger, T34, Panzer, or Ostwind, you have to come diving down on them from above, where the only thing you see is the roof of the tank. Cut your throttle zoom in a close as you can and fire. This is how you disable or destroy a tank. Practice this offline on the tanks they have. Best to take off protect objects in your Arena Settings so you don't have to fly to enemy base then end up getting shot down.

 I've killed all above except the Tiger and the T-34.
 Perhaps you're not using the Hurri2D right.

I love the 40mm's. One ping on a A/C will do the job of a couple of 20mm's.
I used to fly the IID when we had FT.

I popped a Panzer in 10 rounds yesterday morning (5 trigger pulls). I hit him with 4 rounds; two through the top of the driver compartment and two through where the gunsight would be located in the turret. The guns are EXTREMELY lethal when used correctly. Moreso than an IL-2's guns.

And you can't kill the Pintle without killing the turret.

Yeah its easy to kill a panzer or tiger if you take clean shots, quick pops as you float down. You noobs need to go offline and practice this on the tanks in there. Yes I said you noodles.

In real life, the pilot used his .303s to help aim the 40mm. When the .303s were hitting near the target (just before convergence point) he would fire the 40mm.
