What's that biggest ship you sink with flak?

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

If he knows how to aim and how to shoot, he will be fine!:p

Lots of small merchents. Like costal merchents.

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.

Aim for the eels on their flanks.......

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......

Lol. What a theme

I know one man. On 100% realism patrol he sunk t2, t3 , c2 and c3 from FLAK guns lol

But status Kill in Action sucks....

a tug boat with my 20 mm flak gun during escape from succesfully raided Scapa Flow (my 2nd combat patrol)
that bastard tried to blind my crew, so that should learn him

I have no time to fart around with a fooking pea shooter. You got a better chance if Bernard dropped his pants and farted in there direction.

Biggest ship I sank with flak was a small passenger/cargo.

I was in IIA and didn't want to use a second torpedo, so used the flak gun to get the kill, was a sinch because the sea was like a millpond that day. Gorgeous weather.
