Airships

I'm just curious if any of you have encountered any of those K Class blimps and taken it down with the deck gun or flak gun. I'd love to see the fireball that thing would make.

I beilve Jimbune posted a movie of one being shot down somewhere. Not much of a fireworks display though. They used Helium which did not explode in a fireball like Hydrogen.

Yep. Should be: gun makes hole; blimp deflates; blimp lands in water.

Mostly they stayed high enough that they couldn't be accurately aimed at, then they guided the destroyers in for the kill.

Sailor Steve is right.

Just wait til you see what else the airships in GWX do.
