    I can imagine that could happen if 20mm hits ammoload in 190's wing...

    Still, from experience of last night sorties i'am got strong feeling that 190 is not so durable as it should be (comparing to 109). But i may be wrong.

    P.S. Forgive my (possibly) bad english. I'am not native speaker.

    Сегодня на поньке засадил в 190 228х0.50!
    Правда, к концу он летел только с одним руддером, а когда у меня оставалось 2% аммо, у него наконец-то отвалился хстаб. [​IMG]

    190 is plenty strong enough, takes entire load sometimes in p51 to bring one down. and yes 1x20mm take my wing off too, no matter what im in, it seems.

    Downed a 190 flying a La-5 today. Only 15th 20mm round put an end to the fight.

    или просто пуляют видя что противник уйдет ...
    даже не знаю что сказать
    но сам потерял ватор и елерон от лавки ( на доре атаковл неудачно с превишения , помал или непопал достаточно ) то уждящей доре лавка просто лила шваки ......
