Talk:QF 2-pounder Octuple Pom-pom Gun Mount/@comment-115.65.58.153-20161216065417/@comment-91.156.246.196-20170223150725

"if control and mountings were of equal efficiency, the Bofors was reckoned to be twice as effective as the pom-pom against torpedo planes but not much better against very close range targets such as Kamikazes."

Most likely comparing single mounts, so 8xQF 2-pounder vs 4xBofors would be equal against torpedo planes.

''Note that fighters with bombs or rockets had to fly closer than torpedo planes. ''

Too bad that there is no effectivenes comparison against dive bombers.

How close did dive bombers even usually fly?
