OK! did I just see right? (luftwaffe related)
 
I am 200 meters deep, trying to evade a destroyer right now.. I am 91% realism, the only thing I have is assistant W/O and event cam ( i like to see action )

In anycase as I was saying.. 200 meters deep, and the event cam comes on.. I think its only deoth charges, but it shows me the destroyer.. I hear flak guns going off and a plane just bombed the destroyer!!! Its dark so I couldn't make out the plane and it zoomed in on the bombs.. Whats the deal here?

AND WTF!!! I am going to the coast of America.. AND GUESS WHAT I SEE!! A contact, a plane going "SLOW"

Never heard of that, ok, lets wait a little.. ITS A DAMN! BLIMP!!! IS THIS A JOKE?? LOL I can't stop laughing.. I crash dived, but wondering.. CAN I SHOOT IT DOWN?

Is it an air ship?

You can shoot them down but, they can also attack you. The U.S. Navy used blimps/air ships in WWII for anti submarine patrols.

Yea I know they used them.. But didn't expect it in SH3.. Is it scripted like a plane? Or is the surface just as big as what I see? It should be EASY to shoot down.. NO?

They are very slow on a bumped down at Key West, but the settlement when I opened fire, and this was in mid-1942

that blimp would be a K-ship

the only ranged weapons are .50s, but they have depth charges.
get it down fast if you want to, because by now you have a whole squadron of planes heading right to you!

Cool, they have blimps in GWX :yeah:

Yep, it's a GWX thing. And near Europe luftwaffe planes attack Allied targets all the time. :sunny:

The K-Ships can be shot down but!
They used Helium in many bags inside the Main Airframe area,
Not Hydrogen as the Hindenburg did.
So they won't go 'BOOM'.
They are modeled to be hard to bring down for that reason.
They very well could damage you badly, if not sink you!

It's an Aircraft.
And what rule have we learned about Aircraft?
:hmmm:
DIVE!
:haha:

Also, if it takes out one of your enemies, I'd pay it some respect. Instead of thinking of gunning it down.
