I've never seen any complaint about the .50 cal. before, only about the .303.
The only problem with the 50s was the non API rounds.. the Mustang's 50s issue is not caused by the 50s but by the Mustang IMO.. If you run two QMs.. one with the P-40 and one with the Mustang.. especially the stock Ds.. any one.. you will find that you can do more damage with the P-40 from a sheer gunnery standpoint.. at least that s what I have found.. and that is primarily because the stock P-40 is a more stable platform than the stock P-51D.. It seems to me that often in the P-51 it is like trying to balance the plane on a pencil.. which makes for a less stable gun platform.

LOL.. I just saw that Kwiatek said the exact same thing...

As i said that just fixing error in Il2 P-51 FM data with lenght of plane from value "9.38" to RL data - "9.83" is enought for bring back stability of these plane and rise a lot of effectivness its 0,50 cal.

Oleg has the last word, as far as I'm concerned this is easy fix of something that looks like typo in parameters file.

Agreed but it will be interesting what the almighty has to say in the end aye?

If not then it really shows how much he actually cares about accuracy doesn't?
