german attackers, top of tier 3, meaning if you didnt buy all the turd ju87's youve gotta go through them first!

ahhhh ffs!.......ju87's....i refuse

Is the ju87 with 37mm cannons any good? :)

it's awful. if i see one in game i make a bee line for it, attack from the side or above and a couple of 20 r 37mm rounds wipes them out.

its ok when you get a hit, but only holds 6 rounds per gun, so is out of ammo in about 3 secs

stop that boycey, it's not ok. not ok in the slightest!! Firebar from this point onwards forever and for always ignore anything boycey ever tells you!! :p

As rare as that is (bear in mind its only been taken out by me about 5 times) its amazingly satisfying to rip a yaks wing off at 20mph but hey I'm only about 5 games off my 75mm so what do I know :p
 
I have been lurking for a while, whilst I got the hang of my wings.

I would like to join the squadron.

used to thing 37mm did the job. It does if you get an accurate hit but not all the time. Since i got the 45MM cannons 1 hit would tear a plane to shreds. Cant wait for the 57mm Ki 102
 
Wherever you walk, you will hear people talk,
Of the men who go up in the air.
Of the dare-devil way, they go into the fray;
Facing death without turning a hair.

They'll raise a cheer and buy lots of beer,
For a pilot who's home on leave;
But they don't give a jigger
For a flight mech or rigger
With nothing but 'props on his sleeve.

They just say 'Nice day' and then turn away,
With never a mention or praise.
And the poor bloody erk who does all the work;
Just orders his own beer
And pays!

They've never been told of the hours in the cold
That he spends sealing Germany's fate.
How he works on a kite, till all hours of the night;
And then turns up next morning at eight.

He gets no rake-off for working till take off;
Or helping the aircrew prepare;
But whenever there's trouble, it's 'Quick at the double';
The man on the ground must be there.

Each flying crew could tell it to you;
They know what this man's really worth.
They know he's part of the RAF's heart,
Even though he stays close to earth.

He doesn't want glory, but please tell his story;
Spread a little of his fame around.
He's one of the few so give him his due;
Three cheers for the man on the ground.
 
You should see what other shenanigans we get upto esp when we've been drinking. :)

Heh, I've not had the pleasure yet ;)

Naaaa the russian flying tanks :D the mighty Yak 9K

From wikipedia:

Yak-9T modified with a 45 mm NS-45 cannon with 29 rounds and a distinctive muzzle brake to deal with the massive recoil. Firing the cannon at speeds below 350 km/h (220 mph) caused dramatic loss of control and tossed the pilot back and forth in the cockpit; however, accurate shooting was possible at higher speeds and in 2–3 round bursts. The recoil also caused numerous oil and coolant leaks. The heavy cannon installation degraded performance sufficiently to require fighter escort. Yak-9K saw only limited use due to unreliability of the NS-45

I would hope that even in arcade battles firing that cannon means your plane breaks apart :p
