Default Shooting air target with gun

Hi all,

A little bit earlier (think last week) I heard that people tried to shoot their own helicopter to see if the 76mm can shoot air target. I think the results were negative.
Did anybody tried with an air target other than their own helicopter.
Ever been successful?
Now if that doesn't work, hopefully that can be fix, because that gun (even though not that effective) is suposed to shoot air target.

Thanks

If you don't like the helo pilots you can allways resort to using the ciws.
Its quite effective. :rotfl:

Manual guns are much more fun. Did you know you can actually kill whales with those ?

You can kill whales without spending ammo, just use the sonar bulge in front of a frigate
