The (Almost) Invicible Spit!

[CWMV]

I don't need help in shooting stuff down, has nothing to do with what I posted.
In old IL2, when you dropped a few 20mm shells on an enemy aircraft something would simply fall off, like a wing, which would pretty much kill the aircraft.
Now, if you don't hit it in a vital spot, your not going to get the kill. The wings don't just drop off anymore at the drop of a hat. A well placed burst will remove pieces sure, but not in the same way IL2 was.

EDIT: Since when is 200-300 meters a moderate distance? I thought that was WAY out there. I usually only open up at around 50 meters.
Here you have to have some gunnery skill, or at least more than in IL2.
