La-5FN (recently buffed, btw), Yak-3U, XP-50, P-51C/F-6C, F2H, Su-11, to name a few, are probably tier for tier better than something like the Spit Mk24 and Yak-9P.
@thesnazzycomet It no longer locks up passed 500kph. It now pulls similar to the La7. And its cannons hit so hard. I can rack up 3 to 5 kill games almost every single match in it. Its by far my favorite plane in the game
Solid video! Don't disagree with any of your picks but I gotta throw in for the F4U-4 and 4B. I have a massive soft spot for the corsairs, I will admit, but their combination of firepower, speed, and overall agility really captured my heart. They also fit comfortably in at 5.7, which is in a really great state in Sim right now
@@liamboyle9199 it's true they aren't what they used to be but that can be surprisingly nimble at lower speeds. Certainly not the powerhouse she used to be though
I like the RE series in general especially the RE 2005. The REs have the same wing type as the Spits with combat flaps. I like both Spits and the slowish REs so its a win either way.
6:29 on Bf 109 F-4 and later 109s just use manual engine control, it is quite simple. Just set oil and water radiators to 60% and forget about overheating. Prop pitch is automatic on the Bf 109 so you don't need to worry about that. Also, if you need to quickly slow down either in a dogfight or before landing, you can manually set prop pitch to 100% and you will decelerate like you have an airbrake. This only works on the 109s and maybe some other German planes, on all of the others the effect is much smaller. Oh, and make sure you do this with 0% throttle or your engine will break in seconds.
P-51B/C should be on the honorable list at least. That thing is absolutely busted at 3.7. I have a K/D of like 33:1 with the French version. It basically has a D-10 like performance but with more maneuverability. The only downside is that it has 2 less 50.cals. Otherwise It's a better plane at 3.7 instead of 4.3. If you do the math the power to weight ratio between D-10 is C/B versions is pretty much identical.
@thesnazzycomet even if you did it probably wasn't going to make the list :v. But in my opinion it deserves it's own video because it's big, fun, has many guns and has a cult following. Not objectively good but damn fun and I recommend everyone buy it.
Nice video! In the spitfire section, could have included the LF MKIX in br 5.7. This variant is absolutly criminal. Out climbs everyone, turns better than (almost) everyone.
@@Akuma_Z F and LF overheat the same, if you judge by the amount of fuel remaining by the time it does - don't. LF has higher boost pressure at +25 lbs compared to F's +15 lbs, meaning it consumes quite more fuel per minute
Also I'll agree with the "best looking" part, LF is just right in that golden medium between the old-timer Mk.I and heavy, bulgy and optimized Mk.24. More power and weapons, but keeps the classical outline and features, just a thing of beauty
I would have added the Canberra mk8 with the cannons... I regularly get kills with it on top of the bombings...it turns like hell, only the Komet can outturn it.
For me, the Zero would've been on the list at least at the 3rd place. But I am biased because I played with every variant in the tech tree and I learned to play planes on that fighter. I can be a real menace if you play it right
Tips for 109F4. Play with manual engine control and slap radiators on 100%. Don't mount gun pods (It's adding 200kg, that's why it don't turn. Without it you can energy trap and dogfight in vertical basically anything but bearcat)
@thesnazzycomet naaah. It's just one button to activate, second to activate manual radiators and 2 buttons to slap radiators. Prop pitch is automatic in 109. In rest planes slap it 100%. Mixture is not modelled in wt. Also just one button to change supercharger gears. 109 have this automatic. I have this all on numpad
BB1 is such a secret little A10 haha. I love that plane. It’s good in Arcade against like hour old players, it’s good in realistic against people who never see it coming, and it’s ridiculously easy to use in sim too
The French G4’s deserves an honourable mention. It’s not busted in air rb but in ground the amount of ordnance u can take is oppressive. 114 400mm pen heat rockets and 3 1000lb bombs at 6.0 is ridiculous. Esp in a plane that can dogfight well after u drop it all
I havent played in a while but gotta say id pick the mig-3-15 (I hope thats the right one) specifically the one with 12.7mm gunpods The flight performance is insane at its tier and it gets an interceptor spawn. It has its weaknesses like easily ripping wings in a dive and bad turning but the acceleration, firepower, and climb rate was way too insane to overlook when I played it.
I haven't played it in a while but i remember the Cannon 'Stangs (Mustang MK I / "P-51") being really good. A plane that i have recently played and found to be really good, much better than what i remember, is the french VG 33C. it does have kinda linited ammo, but the Hispano 20mm rips everything appart at it's BR, and the MAC 7.7mm likes to set things on fire. then you got a seriously good engine and very surprisingly good maneuverability
The F4 does have one thing to fear... The Yak 3! Insane climb rate, turns good, pretty decent guns. Its only downside is ammo count and a low dive speed. Otherwise it is an absolute MENACE at 4.3.
The French helldiver is super powerful for it's BR and its at tier 3 unlike its American cousin which means you can use it for events. Putting gun pods on it and getting into turn fights is very easy for it if you know how to dogfight because even with the gun pods it can out turn some fighters. Only issue with it is it's climb rate and top speed which is offset because of it's bomber spawn. I've personally gotten up to 5 kills with it and I'm mediocre at the game. I would suggest playing it for your next video as it's a lot of fun. Thanks for the videos @thesnazzycomet !
8:42 Yak-9P is a solid plane but IMHO Yak-9U is just better. It is lighter with the same engine, meaning faster, more agile, and better climbrate, and it has a lower BR. The guns are worse, of course, but I don't feel like trading performance and BR for guns, especially since a ShVAK and two UBS's are already enough for me.
i would not trade in the flight performance to such an extent that my yak now loses a dogfight to a p51d especially since shvak is already very good + yak3p is at the same br
@@planesrkool2727 the Spitfire 24. Technically the Do-335 B-2 is faster than the hornet by 1mph but it must be a busted stat because it’s way too heavy and sluggish to actually reach 490
@@thesnazzycomet The Do-355 B-2 technically does reach that speed but you need to completely cook your engine. I've reached it in test drive by basically spawning the Do-335 at the altitude necessary and with 700 km/h. In an actual battle, at the altitudes people fight, the P-51H is the fastest piston plane. It's the fastest at sea level with no radiators (678 km/h, tied with the F8Fs) and at all but fairly high altitudes where fights simply don't take place at anymore, and obviously the P-51s all have extremely low drag radiators so you lose something like 20 km/h of top speed with radiators fully deployed where the engine simply won't overheat. The P-51H can basically go at its top speed for as long as it has WEP which it does for 8 minutes and a half.. Of course, the original commenter said "the second fastest prop" so to be annoying the A2D is the fastest prop and the Do-335 is the second fastest.
