    Default Re: How to hunt a panther

    Speaking of the Ilyushins, didn't they have cannon too ? I just started wondering that a lot (or rather, all) of the holes made by the 45mm guns seem to be on the upper parts of the hulks, in the turret or upper hull section, and often in the rear or sides... Did the IL-2 mount something that big, or was that just light tanks outflanking ?

    Edit: Hmm, another part of the site mentions "45mm NS-45 and Sh-45 Aircraft Guns", but the text is only available in Russian...

    "Let us remember that there are multiple theories of Intelligent Design. I and many others around the world are of the strong belief that the universe was created by a Flying Spaghetti Monster. --- Proof of the existence of the FSM, if needed, can be found in the recent uptick of global warming, earthquakes, hurricanes, and other natural disasters. Apparently His Pastaness is to be worshipped in full pirate regalia. The decline in worldwide pirate population over the past 200 years directly corresponds with the increase in global temperature. Here is a graph to illustrate the point."
