Arcade

Realistic

Simulation

what 3 aircraft have the highest all around superiority for each of those level's. im sure every one has a favority but this should be nice. and really helpful information for people like me, who dont really play Simulation but if i did id know what to look for.

I can only comment from my POV but;

Arcade - Anything but the jets, they cannot turn with the piston planes, but the piston planes can match them on speed.

Realistic - My choice is contraversial, but I prefer the ME-163C. Its fast nimble, small, hard to hit and with some fancy throttle control can turn with all but the slower YAK and Hurricanes.

Its only down side is its lack of stopping power, but in my mind its a reasonable trade off against all the plus points.

Sim - No idea, I haven't unlocked it.
