I'm disappointed to see the lancaster at the top of the GV killing list.

I'm disappointed to see the lancaster at the top of the GV killing list.
First, it's not a GV killing list, but a FLAK killing list. In a GV killing list the Lancaster would drop back to rank 6, far behind planes like the A-20, which has twice as many vehicle kills.
Second: The high relative number of Wirbelwind and Ostwind kills results from the way the Lancaster encounters them: By attacking bases (most notably vehicle bases) and towns. Flaks are inbound to flatten the vehicle hangars, half a dozen WW's roll out. The WW at the maproom getting killed by a Lancaster carpet bombing the town.
In AH, Lancasters are actually rarely hunting the battlefield for individual targets like tanks.

Thanks for clearing that up Snail.
I was expecting the P-47 and spit 16 to be near the top of the list. I think both are fantastic for killing vehicles, especially flaks.

Wirbles are easy to kill with a bomb. I do target tanks when friendly ground is there but it feels unethical when I do it.

But the most rage PMs come from killing wirbs with a K4
"What did you hit me with?" "I thought you were a K4"

My top 20 all-time killers of FLAKs...
Model Total Kills Ostwind/Wirbel
Ki-84 533 464/69
P-38G 106 28/78
F6F 96 30/66
TBM 82 15/67
Field Gun 71 24/47
B5N 66 22/42
Ju-87D 58 17/41
110-C 51 14/37
SBD 46 11/35
190F-8 45 8/37
P-38L 39 9/30
P-38J 34 8/26
P-39D 26 9/17
P-47-D40 25 10/15
Hurri IID 23 6/17
P-47-D25 22 9/13
190A-8 21 10/11
Ki-61 20 2/18
F4U-1D 16 4/12
P-40E 16 7/9
After that, there are 48 additional planes on the list. The much whined about Lancaster, comes in near the bottom with only 2 kills and the A-20 has 7.
Total kills are 799 Ostwinds and 901 Wirbelwinds. None were killed with a ground vehicle. :lol
The best single performance was in Tour 90, when the Ki-84 killed 85 Ostwinds for only 16 deaths - not too shabby in the days of LTAR. :uhoh
