Yep he did, and the gunner took out his eye, yet he still was able to make it back, and eventually continue fighting in his Zero. Then there was the time when another Zero pilot shot down 4out of 12 F4Us and escaped, but then again, considering not all Americans were top aces, that doesn't seem so bad.

Better than what War Thunder US pilots are said to be like.
