My 110 Gunner

[Sven]

If I were to be a BF110 gunner in WW2, I would shoot all my ammo in the general direction of the incoming enemy, in a hope to either scare him off or get a lucky hit. In the game however, the gunner thinks he's immortal and even when I, the pilot, can see a bandit right on my six, my rear gunner should see him very clearly and shoot, even when the target is going too fast to track.

Why save ammo? There's enough ammo to hold out for a good while.
