WinterH Posted August 23, 2014 Posted August 23, 2014 Anyone having much luck with guns for strafing? I am pretty bad with air-to-ground in Dora, SC-500 is a one hit wonder, that can take out 2-4 targets with a accurate-ish drop, but with SC-50s and guns I am quite below average :) I really would have liked to be better with SC 50 option since they are only multishot ordnance we currently have in Dora. Being a 50kg bomb, I'd expect them to do a bit damage then HVARs but this doesn't quite seem to be the case :) Guns seem to hit a bit above the reticle, and seem to do very low damage if you hit targets from afar. I wonder if we will get AB series cluster bombs too in future, and how will air to air R4M or WfrGr21 fare as air to ground opitons. How are you folks' experiences in air to ground with Dora? Currently, all the glory to humongously explosive and one shot SC 500 :D Wishlist: F-4E Block 53 +, MiG-27K, Su-17M3 or M4, AH-1F or W circa 80s or early 90s, J35 Draken, Kfir C7, Mirage III/V DCS-Dismounts Script

alado Posted August 23, 2014 Posted August 23, 2014 For me the feeling is very good, even with the 50 sc, have attacked trucks and godkillas, and are very useful and fun. For me, if they can get the fuze, delay and skip bombing in the future, it will be the best. :thumbup: I atack a column og godzkillas, and drop 4 sc 50, and kill 3 :)
WinterH Posted August 23, 2014 Author Posted August 23, 2014 Funnily, I also was using gvozdikas as my SC50 targets, but I usually get 1-2 of them with 4 bombs :). But my targets wasn't a column on road, it was a dispersed group. With guns though, I do take 1-2, sometimes when I'm lucky 4 targets, but I seem to strafe better with every other aircraft I have. A challenge is a nice thing anyways ;) Wishlist: F-4E Block 53 +, MiG-27K, Su-17M3 or M4, AH-1F or W circa 80s or early 90s, J35 Draken, Kfir C7, Mirage III/V DCS-Dismounts Script
