I'm suddenly reminded of the P-47 rockets-only duel and the JU-88 50kg-ing a Lancaster formation out of midair...but I suppose those stretch the definition of "deflection shot" a bit much. :D

No, I don't have them any more. I wish I did. :cry (It wasn't me that accomplished them, either; I don't have those skillz :D)

Nice shot.  I did that in a 109G10 - mk108 90 degree snapshot 600-800 yds - oddly nuff also against a mustang and I cleared a buddy's tail.

There's "random luck" as in rockets on bombers, 50kg from Ju88, etc.... Then there's "deflection shot"

A deflection shot you aim, and intend to hit, NOT to be confused with "spraying roughly in front of the target with no possible way of verifying if I'll ever hit" -- the original post looks more like a lucky spray, but it is a cool screenshot.

Your reply failed.

I wasn't trolling. There's "spraying and praying" and then there's "I'm going to aim here, he'll fly into it" (i.e. deflection shooting).

The original post looks like spray and pray, especially in the nose down attitude in a 262 with a p51 corkscrewing into it below the 262 gunner's nose (out of sight).

Makes an interesting screenshot, no doubt (the downward angle, the P51, etc), but deflection? In my book that's more like lucky spraying.

because you're a crappy shot does not mean everyone else is  :aok
