Re: Was the Type 99 Antiaircraft Sight ever Used?
In the 1980's in the British Army we were certainly taught to fire just about anything, and everything, against enemy Helos. On excercise I recall coys occasionally blazing away at jets with blanks (Some people liked having their men spending extra time on rifle cleaning).
The main basis of small arms fire against fixed wing aircraft these days seems to be tracer, from MG's putting off pilots.
