Say a plane has four MGs. You set guns 1$3 to fire at the same time. And 2&4 fire at the same time. Problem solved. No?

thats what they did with for example the P-51 and the hurricane

But the Yak-9T was more intended to use its cannon at ground targets. It didnt need the 0 recoil to get a perfect burst at a turning plane.
It needed to be able to fire a few rounds in a tank, that it can do ..
But yeah, to kill a tank, you need a big round, thus giving a lot of recoil. But since it didnt need 0 recoil for its goal... why bother fixing it

Besides, the big cannon is in the nose, you cant really compensate for that.
A gun in the left wing can be compensated by a gun in the right wing, the cannon of the yak is in the middle, what were they supposed to do
what is the easy way to solve that?
