Default What's that biggest ship you sink with flak?

Just sink a Coastal Tanker (997 tons, unarmed of course) with flak alone. What's the biggest ship you got with only flak?

Why? They are too dangerous to fight with, too fast to aimed at, and too small to worth the effort.

Small merchants. If I could've taken my late-war IXB flak to 'em, I would've sunk a lot bigger ships (twin fast 38s, two twin fast 20s).

I was testing something the other day and, as usual, started out from Kiel. After I was satisfied with the test I got bored, and instead of just quitting I opened up on my Raumboot escort with my Type II's 20mm. He twisted and turned and zig-zagged, but he never fired back, and then down he went.

Yay me, I'm wild and dangerous where unsuspecting friendlies are concerned.

Sunderland flying boat.

I only use flak to shoot the guns off of lightly armed merchants when I surface next to them for the deck gun kill. Lots of fun, like that scene from Raiders of the Lost Ark......
