The bottom armor of the T-34/85 is 20 mm.
No way in hell that a ricochet penetrates that.

Let's not start this again, I tend to think of it like this, it could have happened once or twice that a tank got disabled by .50 cal fire by some random fluke, bullets hitting an external fuel tank, burning fuel entering the exhaust and destroying the engine or whatever, anyway, it's not outside the realm of possibility.
BUT, it is so unlikely that in the sim it should be impossible.

Now back on topic?

What's cooking is probably some new variants of aircraft that we already have, that would seem the most logical.
But I'm hoping for the Beau and the Do 17
