Lol...
Yes, tanks get destroyed more easily by planes than tanks against planes. Bombs explode and destroy things nearby.
Shells from tanks generally have to hit things to destroy them. That's realism....
I have shot down a few planes with a tank. It's hard to do.
One time, I swear, I shot a plane down from a half mile away, lucky as it was. ...lol
Have fun. I do, sometimes. ...lol

Sir Wumper, I do miss the TANK side of the klling fields.....a tank should be a weapon, not a target, to those who have mastered its leathallogy..

some have mastered the shot, and should be rewarded..i remember those who could control the game from the ground....its missed...

I find if plane is in close proximity, usually in a nose down dive towards you . The plane in reality is moving quickly. And as such will pull nose up to level out to drop bomb. Or chance blowing himself up. If your aiming directly at prop you will miss. Aim high lead the plane . The closer he is the more you need to adjust. If you shoot at prop, He will live and bomb you. Its all timing.

I shot down many more planes in DF1 than i have here in elite. Cresting back and forth on a hill near the ememy base in DF1 was my favorite moments in a tank as well as keeping many enemy planes busy in Btc missions making timely back and forth movments and watching enemy planes
tumble past my tank in cart wheel fashion. I starting to get pretty good in a tank in Df1. My most memorable shot was when knocked 2 planes out of the sky with a single shot. If I hadnt seen it with my own two eyes, I wouldnt believe it had happened. BUT, here in elite, no where near what I was accomplishing in DF1.
