how to blow up fuel storages?

[David198502]

hey guys.since the last patch,we are supposed to be able to shoot at the fuel storages to let them explode.but i tried that now many many times and nothing happens!
and im pretty sure i shot at the correct buildings.is everybody,except me,able to blow them up?

What aircraft are you flying?

It worked for me in a Hurricane. Just shot the cans and they went up spectacularly. Had to pull hard to evade the sheet of flame.

ah i forgot to say.i fly with the bf109E3b!
i circled around several times,with every approach i certainly shot 3 to 4seconds non stop bursts(for that experiment i took unlimited ammo) at them,.... but nothing.

what do the fuel containers look like? most of the airfield i have seen look deserted

Can someone post a screen of the containers?

i would but dont know how.
at airfields i didnt see them yet.
but in industrial areas there are round buildings like a fat column.
at least i think those are the fuel storages which are explodeable.

well i took now the hurri and it works without problem.its a really nice effect!!the explosions look awesome!but i recognized some weird reflections of the fires when at certain angle.but somebody else already mentioned that in another thread.so it works for me with the hurrie.but i wonder why it doesnt work with the bf???
