Optically guided flak can be defeated by jinking, random changes in
heading and altitude that destroy the lead computation of the gun.

Real men don't do jinking on the bomb run It's straight and level all the
way
in. And whoever makes it out buys the drinks.(:-)

There's no glory in dying or losing your airplane unnecessarily. "Real
men" put bombs on target. How you get to that point is nobody's
business but your own.

Just more sour grapes because you weren't good enough to be
a pilot, much less a fighter pilot?
