Yes, but it's not quite the same. If the range is set too short, you might not set off a lot of the guns, even with repeated passes. If the range is set long enough to activate all of the guns, you will have them all open up on you on the first pass, which defeats the purpose.

In a well executed attack, it was sometimes possible to make the first pass before some (or even many) of the guns could be maned at all. Subsequent attacks, however, could be on the verge of suicidal.



I.D.
