real P-39 vs ingame p-39
Based on WWII Aircraft Performance, P-39 is a pretty impressive plane. And that's reflected in game as well. At some alt even faster than zero21, its main opponent, and has impressive rate of climb. Its handling ingame feels better than its contemporary p40. But why in the real history, it was an aircraft hated so much by so many. In battle of guadalcanal for example, the main dogfighting role is carried by F4F and P-39/400 was primiarily strafing ground target.
