The U-Flak configuration kicks their arse usually though, but only because (unrealistically) your skilled, specially qualified gunners, have laser sights for eyes...

Really? I am sure the Nordens were only good for hitting stationary targets...ie factories and the like. Pretty sure they did it by eye. They did indeed clsoe the gap though.
