If you mean The Machine Gunners set in 1940's Great Britain then it was Robert Westall. Chas McGill discovers the tail end of a German bomber with it's rear mounted machine gun still intact. I wouldn't classify that as sci fi though so it may not be what you were looking for.
Machine gunners typically fire at groups of five or more targets when in the "suppressive fire" mode. This tactic maximizes their effectiveness by creating a high volume of fire to disrupt enemy movements and communications, making it difficult for the enemy to return fire or maneuver. By focusing on larger groups, machine gunners can increase the likelihood of hitting multiple targets and inflicting significant damage, thereby supporting their unit's overall tactical objectives.
