The jets can when a fight but you have to take the fight to high altitude. Also remember to take the fight vertical. Use the clouds too if you got them.

YEEEAAHH!!! Great choice ;)

Best thing to do with the Me 262, Me 163, and even that He 126, is attack bombers quick and fast. That's their main objective as I see it, turning with others, for me is absolutely forbidden. You want something that can hit the bombers in one strike to take them out. BUT I prefer the props myself. :D

And I used to be an auto mechanic *hits self in head with shoe*

Check this out, from Dogfights:

Very cool, thanks man I'll rent the whole episode. Kinda makes you wonder if any of those Nazi scientists survived to design more aircraft...

Damn you Coors & your Nazi loving ways!!!!! (I'm a Lonestar fan myself:mrgreen:)

Im sure they did, the scientists where in high demand,US had the operation paperclip to get them working for the US, would be strange if the Russians didnt have a similar operation going on at the end of the war.

Now THAT is interesting. LOL
I like a little Shiner Bock sometimes, but I prefer Abita Amber from LA. :grin:

Well they only had about 5 minutes powered flight time, so that was the window they had to take down bombers. Whilst they could climb like no other plane, on the descent, they had precious few seconds to aim because they were going to fast....they were kinda useless in the war.

Well about those jets in dogfight/team battle.

I tried Me163 and Me262, not He162 yet cuz i didn't unlock it yet.

Me163 is really more competitive in dogfight than Me262. While the former is able to take turns at (very) relatively acceptable rate, the latter is unable to do such a turn in less than 30 seconds at least.

So my opinion is that, while, of course, not the most adequate plane for dogfight, the Me163 can be quite a good deal of fun when mastered. I could shoot down 2 or 3 prop planes when I used it last time.

I tried dogfight with the Me262 yesterday. I was unable to follow a single plane (essentially because i didn't have enough distance to do so, i was staying in the heart of the dogfight) and crashed/was shot down 11 times ^^...No score for me!

Don't turn then? The Me262 flown to its strengths will dominate. Attack from above, dive, shoot and then zoom climb up. Never compromise your speed in that plane.

If you see a bunch of n00bs in there little turning battles then just line them all up, you can easily predict what they are going to do if there cutting the lawn underneath them as they turn. Unless they try a rolling reversal turning planes are easy to predict.

In WW2 planes, especially later models you shouldn't be turning anyway, props and jets ;)
