I have noticed in guncam footage that when a plane is hit with the .50 cal round it will create a puff of smoke.

The 20mm and 30mm will do this in UI1.2 but the .50 cal hit will not.

Look at the footage to see. I think it would be a nice addition to the great mods already out.

The smoke is the bullet exploding. In WW2, and in present day Browning M2's they fired API and APIT rounds. API being "Armour piercing incendiary" and APIT being "Armour piercing incendiary tracer" which exploded on impact, creating devastating effects on enemy planes, at least japanese planes such as the Zero, Oscar, Kate etc. (Obviously, the german planes were harder to knock down because of their armor)

A known .50 cal round used today is the Norwegian NM140 MP/MP-T (Multipurpose, Multipurpose-Tracer) in USA its produced under license as the Raufoss Mk.211

I fired a lot of those rounds when i was in the army in 2008, it sure was an awesome sight seeing those bullets explode on impact!

API and APIT have no explosive filling. The flash and smoke are from the incendiary content.

Salmo, that mod does not have .50 smoke hits.

I have UI1.2 installed, so I guess I'm SOL.

Looks like that mod has only one d/l, any info from the person who has it?

I can't get the 00_HG&P_Ricochet_Gunsmoke_Bullets_2D_Smoketrail to work anyway.
