Chuck: I just updated WinSPWW2 with all the latest patches, and I didn't see any change/improvements as far as flak lethality or bombing/rocket effects being diminished. The FFAR rockets are essentially the same thing we used in Viet Nam. They were VERY inaccurate and were normally fired in salvos to get any kind of effect. Against armored targets, it would require a VERY lucky hit to get even damage to a tank, much less multiple kills. The 500 pound bomb is mainly an anti-personnel device, since as you state, the accuracy is even worse than the rockets. A direct hit with a 500 pound bomb probably would kill a Panther tank. It MAY make the ears ring for the crew of a King Tiger or other large tank. But achieving a direct hit with WW2 era bombing sights, while being shot at by flak units, should be a rare thing indeed.
