I can't believe this was realistic in comparison to other fighters of
the time. Anyone know how good the real planes were and/or what their major weaknesses were? Their performance was affected by which weapons it carried, but in general it was considered a classic dogfighter. About half of production was devoted to ground attack variants, but most people think of them as fighters - the reason they were used as ground attack is they could take incredible punishment that a 109 simply could not. Some of the Luftwaffe Experten shot down dozens of Allied fighters in the FW 190, so I would say its the game out of true, not some inherent weakness in the fighter of WWII. v/r Gordon ====(A+C==== USN SAR An LZ is a place you want to land, not stay. |
