Ai planes are nearly unvulnerable


I tried unlimited ammo and all possible bullet types but that didnt changed much.

I set the ai planes to "rookie"

For shooting down a plane you always have to kill the pilot first.

I´ve tried to shoot on all different parts of the plane... the engine, the wings...




You cant shoot away the gear of the stuka!



Is it possible to increase vulnerability of the planes ??


Please help!!!

In the spits and hurricanes I use a mix of Incendiary DeWilde and armor piercing and have no problem shooting down planes.

Remember just because the plane doesn't disintegrate doesnt mean it isnt going down.

What convergence are you using, what distance are you firing from and what is your AoA? Stuka gear drops away if sufficiently damaged .

Learn how to shoot (convergance and distance). I have no problems at all.
I dont understand all ppl whining about problems that dont exist. There is a ARCADE mode for noobs. use it till you learn somthing.

Easy there bucko. Thats a bit harsh.
One might think you never had to learn to shoot like the rest of us.
Go easy on the guy...

@ Luckystrike - If you want to change your name from Luckystrike to TheHammer
in the quickest time possible, here are one or two hard earned tips.

1. Its not only about correct distance and correct convergence. They are important,
however there are a few more things you should try if you want to have increased effect.

2. Correct positioning is VERY important. It is near impossible to down a plane
when you are directly behind it, especially with rifle shot. The bullets just go
through the empty fuselage and loose too much energy before they can get
to the vulnerable bits.

So whenever you can try not to shoot from directly behind, try get into an
off-centre firing position, and if you can, off-centre above or off-centre below
the target. The more off-set your attack angle, the more effect you'll have.

3. Another VERY effective tactic is to try and shoot the bugger when he is in a hi G
maneuver, if you can get a burst on target when he is turning hard, even a tiny burst
can be deadly. His wings are under heavy load and stress so even a small force
can tear them off.

If you can couple these tactics with good distance discipline you'll be an ace in no time.

Have Fun.
