I've collected the evidence here, where you can turn the devs attention to it too by voting:

IMHO the devs should model an E-7/N, which would be re-usable for any 1941 scenario, like North Africa or the Moscow map. Performance wise its identical anyway to the E-4/N.
However I am far more concerned about the 110s lacking 100 octane fuel, when about half of their were using it since the start of the Battle, so its just outright silly that we do not have them. Its like not having Hurricanes or something.
Even more importantly, 100 octane and the DB 601N engine associated with it gave a huge boost to 110 performance, the normal DB 601A variant with 87 octane fuel had a max. speed of around 520 km/h, as fast as the Hurricane, but the one with 100 octane and DB 601N should do around 550 km/h practically as fast as Spits. It would really make the 110 an interesting alternative to fly as a fighter. |
That's interesting I had the same remark few days ago: the Bf-110 C-7 with the DB601N is too slow in game, as it does only 420-430 km/h at s.l. against some 550 km/h I've found in the net. Kwiatek provided some tables, RL for C-1 / C-3 and interpolated for other types, but IMO the interpolation wasn't good. I believe that the 110 C-7 speed must be revised by the devs.
Cheers!
