Re: No heavy machine gun for defense?

Was the He177 considered a fragile aircraft in terms of how much damage it could sustain? I realize that is a wide open question as there is much to consider in a three second burst of quad .303, .50, & 20mm. etc.
But I hope you see what I mean if whether it was known for coming home although receiving numerous penetrations. I presume no self-sealing fuel tanks?
