Attacking a bomber from, the rear was always dangerous and the interwar RAF philosophies that recommended this form of attack, (It the pilots duty to press on the attack until he a) destroys his target; b) expends his ammunition; c) receives enough damaged that he can’t attack any longer) lasted only long enough for the fighter pilots to actually try it in a shooting war!

I’m not an expert but try a diving, slashing attack from outside the arch of fire from the tail gunner and try not turning back on to your target until you’ve exited the immediate danger area and put your self in a proper position to attack again.

Also you might appreciate the gunner’s skills a bit better if you fly a few missions in bombers and take over control of the guns. Even a mug like me can get an occasional kill from the tail guns if the attacker is not using the correct tactics!

Cheers!
