Title: Jug Fuel tank vulnerablity
Post by: Pongo on February 19, 2001, 10:18:00 AM

I had nice sorties in the Jug 30 cut short twice yesterday by CV ack hits. Both hits triggered a type of damage that I have not seen in other planes. A flaming fuel tank hit. lots of smoke and flame, look at damage only one fuel tank hit. 10 seconds later...boom.
Is the Jug particularly vulnerable to this? was this a statistical anomoly?
Seems a pretty severe kind of ack ping.

ack will kill you either way...... 1 shot kills, 2 shot kills, or tank kills
