@ChiChiWerx Well if you thought I was saying that then you were saying the same thing in vice-versa. You were basically saying that the P-51 won the war, and the Spitfire didn't do anything. lol
@ChiChiWerx Spitfires paved the way for air superiority over western Europe along with P-47 and P-38 strike missions over German outposts in France and Germany. Other than earlier A-C models of the P-51, which flew over France/Italy in escort missions, The P-51 really didn't see much until there was an open road straight to Berlin, so it is debatable to say that the P-51 was the plane that maintained the air superiority after the ground and air forces of joint-operations made way for allied aircraft straight into germany.
@F104Deathtrap I beg to differ, according to some information I fond the spit was very responsive, agile, and fairly easy to fly. Though, you have a point, the range of the P-51 allowed it to do more than the spitfires at the time could. Unlike spitfires, the P-51 could carry out ground attack missions almost as heavy as P-47s. However, the spit still carried out escort missions over germany, they still did CAS missions, and they modernized and improved a lot in the process, taking up many more roles than the P-51 could, and soon caught up to the P-51 post-war, some versions (Mk 23-24) even surpassing the P-51F. They have their ups and downs. As Awsomur said, they are completely different aircraft for completely different things. The P-51 was simply made to close the gap of escorting problems over europe and the pacific.
The only advantages the P-51 has over the spitfire are speed, range, and service ceiling. The spit flies better, is easier to build, easier to fly, and lighter. P-51 can't really do much compared to the spit
@F4f879 I don't actually have any examples of a wing gun with an accurate representation of a japanese .50 cal, but they are kind of like the italian .50s, they're low velocity, lets say bullet velocity in SP would be around 550-500. Since they are low velocity, they also have low damage. (around 25-45 damage per hit, and quite accurate (spread from 0.9-1.25) with about 6-8 rounds/sec. They use a bright red tracer color like fff0f5, ffe4e1, or ffffff (rgb codes for colors) You can put all of these in the xml codes. I'm currently on mobile so I don't have SP, but that's all the information that you need to make a realistic damage model for your guns.
You can use this information as a template for your gun and tell me how well it works, I'd love to see he result :)
Cool, I remember seeing you in MP with this.
+1nice
+1stop with the forum posts
+1please
They were great planes, but they were not the best in the world, either.

+1yes lol
smh
+1You forgot the Adidas stripes.
@ChiChiWerx Lol, spits did escort missions over europe many times over, but ok.
+1Also I might check out some of those books, they sound interesting.

+1I meant in terms of air superiority @ChiChiWerx
+1Not a fan of that call-sign but this plane is cool

+1will you make a mechanical rabbit in sp
+1Will you ever get around to making aircraft w/ cosmetic pieces (full-fuselage wings w/ full/partial inner cockpits, custom LGs, etc/)
What was your hardest build so far?
what is your social security number?

Nice, happy to see you here again :D
+1One question, though, do the .50s have accurate round velocity/damage? That would be pretty cool.
Nice
