Re: How accurate can U.S. fighter-bombers be?

in an enclosed area such as town any tiger would be dead meat the enclosed space would have kept the explosion enclosed in the area which would have maximum effect. very rarely were tigers operating alone in the normandy campaign and they woul never have gone into a town with streets that tght where movement was limited. the ss troops would have tried to capture the town first or clear the area before the tank entered as stated before its just the movies. there has been some evidence to prove that some tigers were destroyed by direct bomb hits or close to it so anything is possible
