All im hearing is that the war hawk isnt as nice as the hurricane and therefore no where near as good as a Spitfire.

the zeros the corsairs f4fs f6fs and sbds i think are beautifull oh and dont forget the val

Hehehe

Dont you start! or we'll talk about all those cheap russian crates that barely got off the ground with their poor pilots and the gun sights that werre drawn on the cockpit of their really crappy planes hahahahaha.

That were shot down in the dozens by the 109's :P

Still.... the hurricanes did you proud :D

No need to thank us, it was our pleasure. haha

Well, Russia actually did use more Spitfires around Archangel etc. while guarding your supply ships to the Soviet Union; but you guys did fly your Hurricat's off some of the guarding ships to aid your supply convoys, but in combat the Spitfire was the main Soviet/British plane used on the Eastern Front. :P Sorry Foz, the Hurricane just didn't have what it took. :P Now the Yak-3 had what it took twice over. :D

Fixed

Long answer: my favorite plane depends on what I'm using it for.

killing bombers: 109k4 (others too slow)

being bombers: il-2 or stuka

escorting bombers: la7

pitched furball: 109g6. No need for great turns, just kills targets quick.

1 on 1 dogfight: la5

running dogfight: la7

Short answer: I hadn't used the la5 for a while, used one again today, reminded me how much I love it's 3-d agility. There's nothing like making 2 online opponents overshoot at once.

I would also use the yak-3 in BOP but there's this little problem where all the planes have this amazing, infallible RADAR so sneaking around with a little plane doesn't do much good.

What if they erased the enemy dots from the map screen online

I think that settles it then.

I guess you are a fan of the 30mm "God Cannon" . lol

Really? Me262 too slow??? If I see someone (or a squirrel) choosing to fly the B-17 in a dogfight , I go straight for my 262. B-17 doesn't have a chance against its 4 cannons. I ignore the fighters and just pwn the big Bomber. Its a lot of fun and usually wins me the match too :grin:

For prop only , I think the Fw190 are better than the 109K for killing bombers, thanks to its ability to dive very fast.
