I might be wrong but it appears to me that you can't wound or kill a gunner in a bomber. I have put my entire ammo into one position (usually the tail gun) and he just keeps firing at me. Apparently even the AI guns are better than me because they often wound me. (actually they probably are better but that's not the point) Can someone program the game so you can kill or wound gunners in bombers? I know that the average life of a tail gunner in the real war was only about 15 minutes of action.

All gun positions in bombers can get destroyed, as anybody flying bombers on a regular base can assure you.
However, if you are in a fighter attacking the bomber you might not see it, as in most cases the destroyed position can still be seen shooting along with the other guns.

Only if u break the actual gun which is dumb.

This is a long standing issue that HTC should address. Dead gunners still shoot tracers as seen on the front end of remote players even though they are dead on the bomber player's computer.
A different yet related issue is that gunners are pretty hard to kill though our impressions are skewed because of the above mentioned tracers issue. Gunners were almost completely exposed and could be hit by bullets/shrapnel fr all directions including bullets that hit the plane in a completely different location and traveled through it. Bullets seems to travel very nicely around the armor of planes and hit the pilots from all directions - it should be the same for bomber gunners.
