Underwater plane...

As said you really are a lucky SOB, everytime I try to take something on that's not a Zero and flies, destroyed engines, it's almost unholy the amount of accuracy these planes have against me.

Betty's doing weird things, had this happen quite a few times, they fly real low when making bomb run, and I mean low, after dopping their load the concussion from bombs puts them in a death spin, had one yesterday, while I was standing on the bridge to a cartwheel Kamakaze style, right in front of me and clipped the deck gun on my S-42 boat, what a Kool thing to see, Jap pilots must have been into my rum

Whenever I get bombed they always seem to hit me every time and they never kill themselves. Why do they miss you?

Also if it's not the bombs it's the plane itself that hits you when you shoot it down...

SD radar is cool. Once you run out of AA ammo you can easily avoid aircraft by going to periscope depth when you see them coming close on radar. :P

LOL!

Yeah those Betty pilots have been really hitting the sake! Everytime they attack they either kamikaze your sub or nose dive into their bomb blasts! I have never seen a Betty survive an attack run!

One time I saw two Bettys approaching so I naturally crashed dived. I got under the water before they attacked so their depth bombs exploded safely behind me. Then I hear renching metal, explosions, more metal and then explosions all around. I was thinking, WTF!! is going on out there!

Well I watch the replay and the crazy Japs had dropped their bombs where they saw me submerge, then fly directly into the water on the same trajectory as their bombs! Then the second Betty did the same thing and therefore rammed the first Betty that was bobing on the surface where it had crashed. Every time they touched it was rench, BOOM, rench, BOOM!

I nearly busted a gut laughing at the scene!
