RL battles best 3.3-3.7 fighters
hey everyone, what ar ethe best fighter planes for realistic battles in 3.3-3.7 in your eyes? In my experience its the Am62 or Spitfire MK IIB/V (last one is the best combination of dogfighter and boom and zoom as it climbs perfectly and turns on point sadly its wings are quite fragile to structure overload.

The a6m2 is my love since I started the game 3 years ago. I dont know but it just feels so op as it turns in an blink of an eye and you can get ride of anyone behind you if you know how. only problem is the killing of heavy armed bombers as its speed isnt that good.

German P47D no question, Or the P38G or XP38G. In the right hands no one stands a chance.

they are good boom and zoom fighers but I feel like you can dodge them easily, and if you have a group of 3-4 guys you can out play them nearly allways, okay half a sec in their firefield and you are dead but if you have an a6m2 you will never let this happen.

American Hispano P-51.
Can double as a turn fighter while also having the ability to BnZ.
The Hispanos are no joke either, easily tearing through inexperienced pilots.

If youre not braindead no one will ever touch you in the p47 and zeroes can turn but so can the p47 at high speed, keep that up and you'll have no problem getting a sights on a slow turner. This is RB I'm talking about by the way but still applicable in ab.

While I like the hispanos, 50s are absolutely hilarious right now in terms of damage output. And also I just think the Allison P51 is just ugly as sin but thats just me.

I know that the p47 is op on 6000+ but why even bother to go there with a a6m2 and when he comes down to you its easy to out manouver him. okay he can do it all day long still I nearly never die to p47.

Trust me, you dont need to be at 6k. If you extend away from each pass you'll eventually get a firing solution on him. worst case scenario, you have to hose down his entire general area and that just catches him on fire and starts a wildfire on the ground below.

There's a reason speed was vastly more valued than turning like a leaf.
