It took the skills and motivation of the Finnish pilots to achieve 177 victories for the loss of 41 Freccias against the VVS.
And it took the Mc.202 to partially recover the technical disadvantage, while the excellent G.55 Centauro and Mc.205 Veltro arrived too late and in too low quantities.
But again, the G.50 cries for an FM update!
Yeah, the Finns showed a lot of skill and motivation in that plane. Good to know that the developers are aware of the FM problems with the G.50 and are looking in to it at least.

ATAG_Doc: Yeah! lol! first time I got shot at in the G.50 by a friendly I thought it was a one time kind of mistake but that thing just loves receiving lead from both sides.
