Please reconsider the damage required to kill radar and ords.
IMO, its just too easy, at least it would drive players to use the ground attack planes for this instead of the lone A8 or LA or some other cannon plane.
Make it harder to kill for cannon planes.

+1
eg. RAF radar installations were hard to kill IRL. the antennas were almost impossible to hit by strafing, and could be replaced the same day if damaged by bombs. the rest of the installation was in buried and hardened bunkers, requiring direct hits by a large bombs to take out.
-
Big +1 on this one.
How about ammo that cooks off every minute or so at the destroyed bunkers? Perhaps a 1000 pounder's worth just to keep the flak gunners from hiding under the smoke and flame right next to a busted bunker.
-
Yeah. :aok
-
+1, all but radar objects. A radar tower is not a reinforced object and would topple with a 250lb GP bomb, and as such should remain the same.
:salute

The OP was referring to a single plane killing one with a single guns pass. It shouldn't be gunned down so easily.
-
Yes....... He was.

The course of action could be to make bullet/cannon damage less affective against objects, but not make them tougher. Perhaps even making anything 7.92 or smaller equate to no damage against objects.

+ 1 MILLION Every damn fight I was involved with last (in the MA) night had a K4 or Lgay suicide the dar on 1 pass, seems to be the #1 priority of every other tard in the game

Why? It's called game balance. A 2 weeker can suicide into a radar tower and kill it and barely even hit it.
-
You know that isn't true....... The plane explosion does not cause damage........ err, if I'm following what you're saying.

So...
I should be able to fly over your house and strafe it with mg rounds and you house should be undamaged, right? (err, if I'm following what you're saying)

My house versus a reinforced bunker on a military base? You have nothing better to do this morning? (err..... If you're really that ________)

A K4 in attack mode.......... That is so silly. :uhoh

No, but thanks for your concern. :aok

You were discussing reinforced bunkers where, again? You just mentioned objects. We never had reinforced barracks or latrines in the Army.
It's a game concession, like many others.

That is something I agree with.
What a waste of taters...
-
Bunker was a poor choice of a word. Barracks, ord, radar & fuel..... Well maybe not fuel. :)
No, but thanks for your concern. :aok

Addition: I simply think it would make almost everybody happy if we made small caliber ammunition 0 damage for such buildings. Perhaps anything smaller than 12.7 so as not to include .50 cals?

I just meant he can spray his butt off and hit it 30-40 times, kill it, then end up dying because he can't pull up.
-
Valid point...... Oh I remember those good ole days.

Radar sheds are made of tin. So no to making them harder. Yes on the ords. No ords Bunker should be able to be gunned down unless through the door. Our puny rounds in most planes would not penetrate the concrete of a proper ammo storage Bunker.
-
we used a special kind of "tin" for our chain home transmitter and receiver blocks (sheds) - 4ft thick reinforced concrete:

these are the overground versions, many were in buried bunkers:
