when IL-2 series got that german gotha flyin wing plane, i noticed something about kinetic energy over range in game. i was flying really fast with gotha on dive, and some pilot sprayed .50cal bullets after me at long distance. sure, bullet speed was decreasing over distance, but it seemed that damage bullets make wasnt.
i was nearly as fast as those bullets nearly of their maxium modelled range, and 1 bullet did hit my upper wing section with speed difference about 15km/h.
it penetrated skin and my fuel tank, causin a leak.
in real, it would have made only little mark on the paintwork of the plane.
