Re: Was the hand held single .50 effective? and more
Yes, fairly obviously a powered twin gun is more dangerous to a fighter than a single hand-held one. None the less, a lot of aircraft were shot down in WW2 by hand-held guns, and not just by the heavier US gun. Even if any single gun may not have been a great threat, the sheer numbers available in an 8thAF formation were.
