Salute

Modern Jet fighters have moveable gatling guns, usually about 30mm caliber, which are aimed by computer so the pilot does not have to point the aircraft directly at the target. He just locks onto it with the radar, and guns fire at the appropriate moment. The range for the weapons are also much higher than anything you'd run into in WWII.

Takes all the human error out of the equation... and all the skill.
