I just reinstalled CFS3, and was playing the Destroying Destroyers mission in which a flight of Ju-88 attacks a convoy. In the middle of the mission, we were attacked by a flight of fighters. One of them, a P-47, happened to find himself in front of my plane, chasing one of my wingmen, and just for the heck of it I fired a shell at him - and blew his plane to bits. Is it normal in this game to shoot down fighters with Ju-88 bombers, or did I just get really, really lucky? I saw a spitfire tumble into the sea, too, so perhaps the other bombers, too, did some anti-fighter fighting?

By the way, I really like the Ju-88. She's damned agile for a bomber and is really almost more of a very heavy fighter-bomber than a level bomber, especially with that forward-firing cannon. She reminds me of the Skipray Blastboat from the Star Wars universe.
