The penetrative power of even a solid core, slower firing FF round should not be underestimated.

I posted this back in the earlier Rowan Bob days, quoted from a Hurricane crash report.

"The shell went through the rudder post, through the radio, back armour, pilot (shifting his spine and rib-cage over some 4 inches left), instrument panel, glycol tank and exited top of engine cowling."

csThor,

Obviously, a Battle of Britain Bf109F kill then! Any others known?
