Post Hurricane V LA-7 (for MorgothNL)

Have been comparing the two and seeing how they are and this is what i came up with -

Top speed below 1000ft - Hurricane 234MPH LA-7 333MPH
Top speed at 5000ft - Hurricane 265MPH LA-7 343MPH
Top speed at 10000ft - Hurricane 268MPH LA-7 304MPH
Top speed at 20000ft - Hurricane 244MPH LA-7 290MPH

Rate of roll - LA-7 does it much quicker at all speeds/altitudes

Ammo - Hurricane 20-21 seconds worth LA-7 11-12 seconds worth

Rate of climb - LA-7 wins hands down

Visibilty from cockpit - LA-7 has much better all round visibility

Weapons - Hurricane 12 MG's (12.7mm) LA-7 2x20mm cannons





All the above is from testing the two on training, and some speeds may be a couple of MPH off, but i gave the top speeds a fair few seconds to improve before deciding to go with the listed speed. So dont take the listed speeds as 100% accurate. Also note this is justa quick "trial" so to speak to get the basics of them both as quickly as possible.


As you can see, the LA-7 is much more the favoured aircraft and to stand any chance against it in the hurricane we would have to keep you between 10000/20000ft, our saving grace is also the fact we have 20/21 seconds of ammo and the LA-7 seems to lack alot of armour making a few rounds from the 12 guns of the hurricane enough to destroy it.

The ONLY chance the hurricane has of winning is if its pilots work well together and communicate exploting any weakness of the LA-7.

If this was to go to a betting shop, they simply wouldnt take bets at all



I look forward to the match where you can prove the above is all correct
