Meteor F MK3 is overtiered.
Its much slower than almost every other 7.0 and clearly inferior in most aspects apart from turning.

ah, so it's like every single british jetplane except for the hunter.

Really mate, the meteor mk3 is fine, just turn fight use your turning to win.

But then if you are turn fighting you dont have the speed to get away from the 5 russian planes that end up latching onto your ass.

There are no Russian 7.0s, meaning unless your fighting Yak-15/17s, you’re fighting superior opponents.

ie, this is where I come in with the BR decompression can help this.

Well, not any longer. Mig-9 used to be 7.0, and even on that BR it was better than Vampire, ecept on turning and air-to-ground capability.

The problem is if you turn fight you lose energy, this means you may get the kill on the target you are turn fighting with but you then cant get away and you just get swarmed.

I mean theoretically, the Meteor should be the equal to the Me 262.

Meteor is lighter and more maneuverable.

Me 262 has higher top speed but is heavy.

4 low velocity 30mms.

4 high velocity 20mms (east to aim, less damage, vs horrible to aim and ungodly firepower).

About in service around the same time even, etc.

I still take 262 over the bloody flying tea can. I like my hits to actually deal damage

Which is ironic that the Hispanos MkVs are my 2nd favorite 20mms in the game —

Well considering that I have most planes unlocked from britain's tech tree, yet I find them most frustrating. Like I have the the whole bomber tree, the beaufighter tree and the Hunter tree done, yet I have just gotten the bunker buster 262 and Horten researched I find them already way more enjoyable.
