I do not know if 15mm AP ammo of the Friedrich nose gun can penetrate the cabin, but there`s always the underside radiator that can be damaged with normal MG calibre. The more complicated DM when compared to the old IL2 will also benefit the attacker here.

Anyways, virtual 109 pilots had enough time to learn to deal with them.
Yeah, lol, "the tank of the sky" IL-2. One short well placed burst of MG on that oil radiator and it's history, in IL-2 1946 at least. After a little practice one could single-handedly take out a whole squadron of those things. If they have the same weakness in BoM, no need to use any precious 15mm cannon ammo.
