Only if you mount it on the nose of my Camel. 
Might be a little nose heavy, but I'll trim it.

Now I'm curious, is that a Russian soldier with capture Luft flexible mounted guns on the Eastern front or is that a German soldier with guns stripped out of about 6 bombers to deal with IL2, Hs129 and other VVS attacker low level harassment attacks? IL2 and Hs129 were used to harass German ground positions to good effect. Our M16 quad 50cal has more range and knock down power since range and kinetics matters with MG destruction ability against airplanes in our game. Even with volume of fire, all the rounds loose the same kinetic potential the farther they travel. It's why in the BoB scenarios the 8 - .303 are pretty useless past 300 like they were in real life during the BoB.

Pretty much useless against 1942+ planes ( Mg-42 did not service in numbers before 1943) they were too well armored.

German base defenses used surplus 20mm mg151 on mounts.

They got a number of kills against western allied planes trying to strafe the field.
