I've only seen it happen once more in the last 11 years of playing.

Even better, killing a plane with a direct artillery hit.
I've hit a fighter plane with the Jagdpanzer I once. It was diving for me since I was an easy target, open top, no MGs.
Never managed to replicate that.
I killed a BF-110 with an ISU-122. I had to find the clip to remember the exact plane/tank. Watching every part of the plane fly away from the fuselage as fast as possible is hilarious. He still landed a bomb basically on top of me so it was a trade.
Damn, that definitely requires more skill than the artillery :D
In my case it was a hail mary, a perfect lineup since the guy was straight diving for me, and dumb luck. It was my third shot, the enemy was on the second strafing run, I managed to defend the first by turning into it and I needed to continously point myself at him, since my SPG had only front armor. Might as well shoot back.
It was also hella satisfying, the HE hit smashed the plane to the ground in front of me in pieces. I'm sad I didn't record it.
Oooooh, okay. That is a rare one.
