BTW you accuse Kurfürst of " a viewpoint". If I were you I'd be very quiet since you obviously represent the other side of that particular medal.  |
The 'a' is not necessarily for export, there seems to be lots of confusion regarding that.
Buzzsaw is certainly making a good point. The FTH of all 109s in game is 4500m, suggesting that DB 601A-1 version is modelled.
467 kph at S/L at 1.3 ata seem very reasonable (water cooler 3/4 closed). The test were not recalculated for engine's guaranteed power yet.
