about the 50 belting change i say i dont really see a huge change

in my experience ur slightly better off against armored stuff and i thing it gets better penetration, but again not much if anything

im not 100% sure but i think the old belt modeled .50 HE shells, which if they even existed in large numbers were rarely if ever used in actual combat as a 12.7mm round just doesnt have enough space to make bothering with HE and all its fuzing/complexity just a waste of resources as the explosive would be marginally if any bit more effective. Now i think the belting must have added incendiarys as i do seem to ignite stuff a tad more, but again not much more, maybee less wings ripped off with the new belt, but still happens.

then again it may be just my experience being greater now as i seem to be able to maintain longer sustained fire on a target, but i will say the 50cals are a hell of a lot better then before i really gave them a chance, i still might not fear them in a fw190, but they defenetely are good when used right (and ofc i get lucky)...
