Just for the record, Spitfire...

Spitfire can actually take fire...

Spit14: shot by: Niki, P47, P51, & 190



Seafire: shot by: B-17, auto ack, & manned ack:





Note: Have higher quality picture if need be

[GNucks]

Those are obviously shopped

You mean Aces Highed

Having a Russian pilot gives you immunity to damage

seriously, you know something. Spits tend to lose their wing after 3 20mm pings to the same spot especially when they are pulling high G-s.

I knew no one would believe me if I'd just say it so that's why I posted the pictures.

I'm going to go fly my Spit14 though base ack now 

[Karnak]

Of course it can.  So can the A6M2.

It just takes less damage than some other aircraft in its weight category, such as the Bf109.

A lot of people tend to think that in can take as much damage as a zero, in reality (as far as you can see) it can take a lot more.

haha i belive you    just looks like if one more .22 hit and the whole plane is falling apart
Btw zeeks are tough little rides until you can ping the fuel tank.

That's the only reason why I landed the seafire, had fuel and ammo but could not figure out why I'm still flying. On the spit14 however I landed when I was low on fuel and ammo and had 6 kills.

You have to try not to hit them, and that's incredibly hard.

I was just going to ask for another Spitfire or 190 thread.  Thank you.

[The Fugitive]

I'm just waiting for all the pictures of the spits twirling toward the ground missing a wing   

[icepac]

That looks a lot like a72 which was captured deep into rook territory last night which caused 15 vulchers to do nothing but fly up the runway, turn around, down the runway.....up the runway....down the runway.

Of course, I was able to spawn, instantly bail, and run to the edge of town on foot and garner 4 proxy kills as they tried to strafe me dead.

I see no such thing in those shots.  While I don't fly the A6M2 much, I have landed quite a few shot up A6M5s.  Spitfires seem to lose wings easier than A6M5s do, and the wings are about the same size.

Yeah but lilting up a zero is the same thing as taking it's wing off, you have to agree it's very easy to lit them up (especially if you use 30cas).
