AMERICAN LASER .50 CALS | 220 ROUNDS FIRED PER SECOND (War Thunder COMBO)

[@patrickjohnson5245]

Interestingly enough Phly, there was a gunship variant of the B-17 developed during the war. It was designed to support standard B17's with up to 30 machine guns. The creation of the P51 and Thunderbolt ended the program rather quickly.

I am proud to say that Seafire you shot down at 8:34 was me! This is the second video I made it to, I was in the intro for the M60 AMBT as well :) While everyone is putting in requests, I would love to see a combo video of the OF40 and F84G for Italy at 7.7. The OF40 gets an LR and the F84G gets a running start after reloading/repairing making it possible to do a bunch of bomb runs. P.S. Loving the combo videos, keep it up :)

[@marksman24444]

My strategy with big boy tanks like the one in the first clip is to take your time and place your shots right were the rotating gun connects to the rest of the vehicle. It doesn't do a whole lot of damage but it will spit some fragmentation into the crew and ammo supply if you're lucky. Just keep hitting it over and over generally the second shot will kill the drive/gunner

the B-17 was capped out due to weight restrictions and would've had to cut it's bomb load in half. there was old 13 that was refitted as a gunship recon aircraft that had a cannon mounted for the pilot to kill the Japanese tactic of head on avoiding all the gunners. and 17, .50 cals. they were a rag tag crew of crazies that were repeatedly disciplined for their actions and grounded on a regular basis and wouldn't have ever gotten a plane of their own if they hadn't stolen all the guns from the other planes and made their own out of the old 13, that no one wanted to fly. It had a history of coming back with very few crew before they got their hands on it.

The F82 is probably one of my favourite American aircraft alongside the first Shooting Star and the F104. The only thing I dislike about it is the repair cost, it is insane that it costs over 19k to repair, it is a very powerful aircraft, yet is hardly as OP in air rb as German mains love to complain about. The TA152 is completely capable of running rings around it and shredding it (along with most other single engine fighters if flown competently) once it reaches its altitude (something easily exploitable in ground rb), yet it costs over 3k less.

I fonly they had ever thought to take the 5 inch (76.2mm I believe) naval gun and put one in a plane with the VT shells, would have made a great bomber killer. Or light target killer. Closest is the PBJ-H with a 75mm cannon.
