I love to hunt bombers, offline and online. I learned to accept those uber snipers as another "feature" and I try to stay calm when another B-17 gunner kills the pilot of my interceptor during high head on attack (up to 1000 kmh relative speed). Try...stay...calm...
But what really annoys me is a lack of logic. ShVAK gunner freezing in open cockpit of MBR-2 (TB-3, etc.) looking through fogged glasses and aiming with primitive iron gunsight can be more precise than ball turret operator of B-17/B-24 or computer operator of B-29.
