50's / 12.7's: THIS TYPE OF AMMO WILL ONLY WORK ON THE LIGHT PILLBOXES Using ground ammunition and/or armor penetration ammunition will give the best results. One can use the AP 12.7mm rounds to destroy light pillboxes, in one medium duration burst, while shooting through the roof, most effectively than any other round, making the US planes the most effective in that role. Light pillboxes can be destroyed by cannon fire, with no need to aim in any particular area, but hitting the top will destroy it faster. Pillboxes and their lighter variant can be destroyed by various means, mostly bombs and rockets. While destroying pillboxes isn't typically part of the objective, their destruction will allow the opposing team's ground forces to reach the capture point(s) faster, or allow them to focus fire on the critical vehicles both of which will hasten victory for that team.

They will only attack ground forces, but often have anti-aircraft guns connected to them by trenches for defence from air attack. Pillboxes, along with their lighter variant, will appear in most maps.
