I suppose it does depend on the situation, but with a Yak-3 vs a Fw190D9 the 190 pilot is the one who decides the situation, and he would be stupid to pick the situation that favoured the Yak-3.

I dunno, I think a GM built FM2 Wilcat would be better, since they were A LOT better than the F4F series. But anyway, it just depends on the situation, and who gets the jump on who first?
