I once saw a fight between a B25 and a Fw190. The B25 was quite low, but everytime the 190 attacked it would start manoeuvring like crazy, and with the turret mounted .50cals the B25 was getting hits on the 190 with every pass. After about 4-5 passes the B25 was pretty beat up, with one engine out and a lot of damage, but on the 5th pass the gunners finally managed to take out the 190, sending it down in flames. By this point the B25 was literally on the deck, and with one engine out it didn't have the power to climb back up or manoeuvre, and it almost seemed like a shame to knock it down with my 109G. Even here the guy put up a fight, firing the top turret at me as a came down, but he was out of effective range and didn't really stand a chance.
