SM.79 porked (or forgotten) damage model

[Fearfactor]

If you can get that top gunner, that bird is toast, easy meat on the table. I spent a bunch of time as a top gunner in the SM.79 against I-16 5 and 6 and there were plenty of times they shot down my bomber or others in my flight. Sometimes they go down fast too, not always slowly by crippling engines and wings. Sure, it's touger to down than many bombers but it ain't impossilble like you ( topic starter ) say it is.
