Hi Varra,
I do it a lot when flying 109 loaded with standard ammo and don't get so much Pk. In fact I have to actually target the cockpit to get a Pk what needs me to get really close. In a merge situation at that range and with angles I doubt this being intentional
As Doggle and others said the nbr of Pk seems to hve skyrocketed with the new ammo. I am not contesting other abilities.
I don't know how bullets hits in game regarding to target's aspect ratio but although wars kills a lot it might need a slight tuning here.
~S!
