Been there.

Did you know there are two sorts of gunpowder:
Fast burning(pistol and rilfe ammo) as well as slow burning(shotgun).

If you have the chance light both and compare them.

a hydrodynamic fuse was fitted so that the shell only exploded once it came into contact with liquid.
How's that supposed to work?

In reality the VC70 was probably more effective:

If SOW progresses like IL-2 that 108 will come along eventually and when it does that will be something to see..

These shots are amazing as usual. I really can't wait for this game. Now that I've watched "First Light" I'm literrally sitting on needles!

BTW, the font used on RAF planes is not correct for the era. Why don't you use this one?

( I know it's from 1941, but the font is the same)

Take a look at the damage on this Emil. I'm surprised he was able to ditch usually they don't do to well I've heard when damaged badly. That may be B.S. though

yes i loock the dammage of bullet in the airplane structure.
compare the human dimension and the size of the plane.
compare the size of the human hand and the size of the bullet hole in the shell of the airplane.
verify SoW images of Oleg Maddox if the bullet holes were the right size and correct.
the bullet hole in the photo should be large half hand.BELLE PHOTOS.
GOOD PHOTO
