This feature would add some more lead above the close airspace on a base. The field guns currently fire a slower rate than a 50cal. Add a rapid fire defensive gun capability increases the damage rate for attacking aircraft.

You want more defense of air fields? Acks already over powered. :confused:

I am with blu on this one depending on what base your attacking you will be Bleeped

While I disagree with the idea that the AA is overpowered, .50s aren't going to add much to it so why bother?
-
Since a wirbelwind can take 297 shots from the manned 37mm at 700 yards and drive away undamaged, I wonder how much more effective a manned twin .50s would do?
-
Turn auto ack into .50s, manned ack into 20mms along with the 37m.. :eek:

Not on the small airfields. But over all, fields have plenty of ack. For a small airfield, 2 ponys with 100 lbers and rox can get much of it all down in 2 passes.

What I would wish to see is EW and MW weaponry for, well, EW and MW bases, as well as EW/MW loadouts for ships. Ships early in the war were more loaded out to deal with other ships and not ac, and bases were using mostly rifle caliber guns for field defense if my information is correct.
As for adding .50 cal guns to LW bases, a doozy. Manned .50's I can say yes to, but auto .50's may replace a couple of guns. Of course, replace so that they would equal what is being replaced. It would depend on what type of .50 cal setup you intend to add.
What about manned 20mm's?

you're doing it wrong. obviously. I kill plenty of tanks with the 37mm's.. the only gun i use is the 37mm.
as to whether there's enough ack or not, there should be more.. vulchers should die.. however, i don't know wtf 50's are gonna do, add more 37's.

Tanks go down easy with a few shots at 500 yards but a wirbelwind doesn't.
At 500 yards or less......you are able to hit any part of the wirb that you want.....which I what I did when I made that observation.
Another tank killed him and not even an assist.

Put in real flack towers.

That's a great idea.

m16- 4 /50 cals :bolt:

Some manned .50s would fun. A few mounted on the tower or something.

Rockets can take out ack from beyond their range. So can the 75mm in the B25 and the BK5 in the 410.
If you fly in fast enough and make sure to constantly maneuver, especially egressing you can take out an awful lot of ack. Start with the little circular guns that fire in bursts.

I met two ponies on my own, co - alt at 15k two days ago.
Both rolled and dived to their ack where the proceeded to circle the centre of their field. I killed one before ack tore me up and the other moron got the kill. Met the same two guys 20 mins later, same deal although this time it was ship ack and I got one shotted by a 5 inch at ridiculous range.
You want to up field ack levels I say fine as long as guys flying through it over their own field get shredded as well
