I regulary see pilots strafing and heavy damaging ships that should withstand the punishment of less calibre fire.
This should be short of impossible and should Imo, be changed. I agree that killing them small guns should be OK but that's it.

I dont think its the hard guns that are going down but the smaller guns like 20mms and 40mm, strafing a cruiser with a LA does yeild alot of explosions tho.

I believe the hard gun mounts are armored, I've had 75mm shells bounce off the cruiser's main guns. In fact, I don't think I've ever knocked out one of the main guns with a 75mm though I kill every other gun on the ships with just a couple of 75mm rounds.

killed a crusier with a b25H in one run just guns and it hadn't been touched before that

Cruisers had light weight armor plating. Carriers had almost no armor in the flight deck. Compare them to a battleship, which was meant to absorb a crap-ton of hits, and they're really pathetic. So, theoretically for what we have, it's quite possible. Especially with the B-25H. That 75mm was intended for use against ships when they put it in!
P.S. I do seem to recall talk about the turrets being hardened, so that sounds about right. Don't think you can strafe them down. Need an explosion to take them out.
