The RBS-82 can kill almost anything…as long as you land a very very good shot
Which is not that easy lol (The 132 is way easier to use, thanks to brute force)
The 50kgs usually seem more reliable and easier to pull off for killing tanks…as long as you also can land them well and it’s not something stupidly heavy

I rarely use rockets for tank busting tbh… Something I need to practice. As for 50kg, they only ever seem to work if the tanker remains immobile when the bomblets land. If it moves up, it generally survives unscathed or at the very best has it’s engine getting on fire :thinking:

It’s different with volume however. There’s a premium Focke I really love, that has… 8x 50kg. Doesn’t matter if the tank tries to roll away, it’s completely “surrounded” by bomblets :stuck_out_tongue:

Yeah, if they are already moving it’s a bit hit or miss…but often anything that can accelerate fast enough from a direct-ish donk doesnt really have any armor worth speaking of, so it will get damaged somewhat, or tracked…so you can give it the other pair of 50s the 1941 IL2 carries lol
Or just bracket them with 2 pairs so they cant really go anywhere

Rockets are frustrating to use (at least the…frustrating ones lmao), but man, when you nail the tank perfectly it feels so damn good

50s have more effect if you drop at a height that allows them to explode on impact rather than timer, I’ve found.
