I have good flying skills but have potato aim, so the gun nerf isn't helping me right now lol

The gun nerf was the nail in the coffin when it came to me leaving War Thunder. Nobody asked for it but the shitter noobs complaining that they died too fast, so Gaijin decided that instead of them having to learn how to fucking fly, they can just sponge 20mm-37mm rounds and fly as if it wasn't even hit in the first place.
