Historically speaking you can damage an American aircraft and get away with it, you just need to be lucky. No, if you want everyone to be afraid to touch you, join the navy. Touching American boats either with or without provocation is anathema. You touch the boat, you get the smoke, end of story.
It's one of not very many games I've beaten multiple times as an adult. Sure as a kid I beat games repeatedly, but now I have a massive library full of choice and between the original and remake it's been like, 4 times.
But the vast majority of the shell fire is not as a result of the battle which raged around St Malo for nearly two weeks. After the battle, the Americans brought up various tanks and other anti-tank weapons into range and fired at them to see how much punishment they would take. It is incredible to see that virtually all the hits show shells bouncing off or merely embedding themselves into the armoured steel without penetrating it. I found only one shell hole which had penetrated the cupola straight through, whilst one other shell appears to have found a way in at the point where the moveable gun port shield slots into the turret.
If this is at the beach landing, decent odds it was shore bombardment from some of the smaller weapons. The amount of naval fire directed at the opposing forces on the beach was incredible. My favorite little moment I've heard about from that was a battleship engaging a sniper nest that infantry had radioed in with their 16" main guns. There's a naval historian on YouTube by the name drachinifels, I highly recommend watching his video on operation Neptune.
Why do the army guys always attack these bunkers instead of just going around, are they stupid?
Yes, that's why they are in the army.
They're in the army because they're poor.
And poor because they are stupid. Checkmate leftist. /s
Smart and lazy - space force
Come on, if Black Adder was American and had to join a service, he'd totally bribe the right people for the space force.

Air Force gang throwing mad shade
There is no "around". These things were setup with overlapping fields of fire.
And surrounded by minefields.
Red Faction games be like
Guerilla?
The ReMarstered edition still holds up so there's still time

Excellent game.
I thought the actual gameplay of Armageddon was good, but the linear structure killed it for me.
What weapon actually did that, artillery fragmentation?

Edited for context
Though it held up, I bet if anyone was hiding in there they would be concussed into vegetation
I think I'd prefer to just be shot.
You mean you don't want to be inside the world's thickest bell when it gets hit with a main battle cannon?
Say it ain't so.

Guessing it was one of the defenses that was hit by close range artillery fire.

Right? That's a good guess
they better be wearing their earplugs
I may have underestimated 45acp.
Hand cannons
Back then the bullets were on meth too.
Those pistols shoot some damn big bullets.
