.50 cal?

[Kwiatek]

I usually use 175m convergence for 0,50cal and still it hasn't impact for hiting to target from six o clock (expecially Fw190 but 109 also). If i hit from some delfection is big difference but shoting from rear to fuselage is mostly wasting ammo. 0,50 cal should easly penetrate fusalage and plate armour with suche angle ( 90 deg=0 deg) and wounded or kill pilot.

I fly in HL as 303_Kwiatek and nick Kwiatos i use only in some forums.
I flew a lot P-47 before 4.XX patch when it had good firepower and accurate roll rate at high speed - it was real Fw190 and Bf109 killer these times. As i remember 1 pass 1 enemy shot down. Now i dont fly it too much. Im nervous with its curenlty moddeled roll rate and 0,50 cal effectivness. Now im rather taking P-51 with much more chance to hit target then in P47. Many players can hear you engine and break off before you have chance to shot so in P-51 you have more chance to aim target then with poor manouverbility P-47 even if it has 2 guns more. Before 4.XX Fw190 and 109 pilots have hard days but now they could just laught when P-51 or P-47 try to shot them.

Yes.. above all when your screen turns black or a single burst cut your controls.. if you are lucky you'll lose only 100Km/h of top speed... but all depends on pilot's accuracy.

Anyway everybody have the sound engine problem and 190 and late 109 aren't good to "have more chance to aim target" more than a P51.

Convergence of the 50's in the Mustang 250 yards or 228.6 m convergence.



Why use any less when historically 250 yards was more than acceptable in the field?
