in arcade it's not really a dogfight, since everyone is moving at close to mach 1, and you have to shoot at them from much farther away
This isn't really a weird thing, but I figured out recently that you can sink the ships off Dover in training. So I tested a bunch of different bomb-carrying planes at the task of sinking them. Turned out the He-111's 250kg bombs sink the destroyers with just one hit, even if it's a near miss. The Ju-88 usually needs all its 50kg wing bombs in addition to its 250kg bomb, and they have to hit direct. I didn't find any other 250kg bombs that sank them in only 1 hit, though I didn't test the other heavy bombers yet.
Also the 50-cal machine gun shots from the ships destroys I-16's and I-153's and Po-2's easily. Cannon fire from other planes hardly does anything to them, but one 50-cal hit from a destroyer will send them spinning into the sea.
And if you bomb the ships too close, it will say you crash into them even when you don't actually touch the ship.
