Yeah I get the whole realism thing and i know planes are a sub's worst nightmare when riding on the surface. In reality though a 20 mm gun would tear the hell out of any plane from that era. I mean, it's a plane, its not heavily armored otherwise it probably wouldn't take off.
It's just mystifying when you are shooting at a plane 3 to 4 hundred meters away while its nose diving on you and you can see the bullets impacting all over the cockpit and wings yet it doesn't take any damage
