US Air RB recommended 50 cal belts

Title pretty much sums this up. I know that the APIT rounds are flamethrowers but I'm still pretty 50/50 about using them. Instead, I usually just rock Universal belts and they do me just fine. My main question is whether or not Ground Belts or Stealth Belts are still viable for P-47s, P-51Ds, etc.

TLDR: Are Stealth Belts and Ground Belts a waste of time or pretty prime? Shameless rhyme ik ;)

Well it was in my first account that I quite playing with years ago, but when it comes to the absolutely gorgeous american browning 50 cals! I would aim for the ground ammo belts cause of the large number of AP rounds, when you have 6-8+ browning 50 cals all firing out lots of these rounds and you land a solid hit on any enemy plane you know your going to **** someone up and either kill them in that first pass or deal so much damage to the planes controls and air lift they'll not likely survive making it back to base let alone be a real and continued threat to you and your team.

I used to rip bombers up enough that they couldn't stay up and slowly fell to earth if I didn't re climb and come around for another heavy hit, don't even have to do much more then tier one wing and its engines up real good which that many 50s with AP/API rounds slamming into will easily do. Fighters and Attackers? Smaller planes much easier to rip apart with a successful pass.

Of course this is all 'if' you can manage to land a solid hit on them and I play RB and avoid AB so I have to actually work on aiming ahead to hit my targets. But when you do hit them in RB your easily eating planes alive.

Ground belts. just aim center mass and enemy planes will fly apart.

I recommend tracers/ground target for M2 .50 cal and ground for M3 .50 cal.
