Frustrated with german planes

[mcnuggets911]

Hello pilots,

I have a little question:
Is it normal that german planes in T1 / T2 / first half T3 are freaking bad?
I get one shot most of the time or my wings get destroyed very fast.
Especially if someone is behind me it is game over, spitfires or these american planes turn way faster than my planes.
Furthermore, weaponry is weak and it takes so long to kill of fighters, not to mention bombers.
At the moment I got BF 109 F-1, Fw 190 A-1, He112 B-O, He112 A-0

Is it supposed to be this way? I heard high tier german planes are extremly OP (and thats why I still grind for it)

With the Bf 109 F-4 you finally get a good cannon, the MG151/20, which fires a powerful Minengeschoss shell (use the air targets) and also comes with some 15mm gunpods if you want them. That's the first really good 109, anything after is an improvement or still good but not as competitive, the G-2 being one of the "improvement" ones.

It's also good to remember to keep your altitude. In German planes I never go down to the deck and turn fight, I stay at high altitude, and engage people I know I stand a fair chance of killing, choosing my fights, if you will.

Tbh its the reverse.

The bf-109 is a boom and zoom plane. Or atleast thats what I see when I play with people. Its turning speed is good. Better then americans planes who are all about boom and zoom.

Spitfighter or just any brit plane is REALLY hard to out turn since it already has really good turning plus its guns with air targets(If I renember right).

The guns aren't weak from what I seen. What belts are you using?

Oh also one more thing OP. Take that Fw 190 out of your lineup. You wanna have similar or closely similar BR aircraft. An He-112 isn't gonna do so hot against 4.7s.

It's truly all about the BR, what plane you're using, how you use these to your advantage.

EX:
Using a Bf 110 and turnfighting with a biplane.

My general advice is to look up the plane on the wiki.

The Bf-109 is not a boom n' zoomer.
It's an energy retention fighter and everyone knows it. The Fulconwolf line are boom n'zoomers
