Reality or IL-2?

Without real life experiance of shooting bombers down, you cant really claim that.

In IL2 I mainly fly bombers and I would cvertinaly claim that they are too fragile. Especialy the A20.

Well it could actually be a case of BOTH in IL-2, easily explained by the fact that AI is perhaps a little too good at shooting in the game, both in terms of fighters and bomber gunners (fair criticism, I think).

hehe, you think the AI gunners are good?
you should a' been there when we did a 6 plane He111 formation with human gunners.

The AI gunners are only any good when people attack from the wrong angles.

If you take time to line up and attack from the high 1 or 11 o'clock, you will never take a bullet.

I see people all the time tryinmg to attach he111s or B25s from the 6, 9 and 3. Usualy at co-alt.

As german fighter I find bomber killing rather easy,

the ME109 is great in a dive and a couple of shots aimed at the wings righter between the engine and the fuselage and it snaps off like that, if done right the AI gunners dont even hit you.

Liked the footage in that video.

thought its a sad view knowing what was going on the inside of that bomber.
