The only reason the USAAF and USN stayed with 6 .50cals as the standard armament for fighters during WWII was that the changes introduced to the Hispano to "Americanise" it made it very unreliable and prone to jamming. When the Hispano became sufficiently reliable and available in sufficient quantities (this happened very late in the war) it replaced the .50cals on USN aircraft.
