You mean where the fighter sits in the dead six, nearly co-E, wings in plane with the target at 100m?

Exactly !!!

 

If you pay attention you will see those pony drivers were really noobs.  They parked behind bombers, they kept firing at very close range outside convergence settings and where any bomber movement will break the fighter pilot aiming. Some of them spent all their ammo scoring only a few hits.

 

This video is a real lesson in how you do not  attack bombers and I could not miss the rare oportunity to have fun showing that !! ?

 

The usual bomber mission nowadays is getting the entire crew shot dead by .50s or getting your plane blow up to pieces by enemy´s cannons on the first pass.

I got plenty of footage showing that but is bad for morale and the Devs always fix discrepancies in the damage model after sometime.

I agree with the inefficiency of the attack from the full rear (sometimes you can't do otherwise), but most of the time I come across bombers, unescorted (sometimes alone), which in my opinion , is one of the symptoms of too much efficiency of the machine gunners...

 

And at 1'20'', the p51 which arrives from below is destroyed by the gunner of the plane it is attacking...what a reflex! ?

Thanks!! I have a lot of practice on gunners seat.

 

When I am the flight leader I usually leave the aircraft in auto level and I jump to tailgunner.  It helps on shooting and better defensive tactics due to situacional awareness. 

 

Actually it is easier to hit fighters flying constant heading values on vertical maneuvers.

You mean where the fighter bomber sits dead 12 in front of 6x50' cal HMGs?
