[QUOTE=vanjast;1838059]In reality the Swordfish was harder to down than the then modern bombers because of one simple fact.... it was made of fabric and the AAA shells passed right through it without exploding. The Bismark had this horrible experience.. and was torpedoed.

Of course it the shell hit something solid that would possibly down any aircraft.

I agree in real life-however my experience in the game has been they are the easist to shoot down.
I had real bad encounter with a Kingfisher, anything like it or bigger is an instant crash dive.
