how to handle the spitIX??

Spit is very menacing opponent. If you like this type of planes, you should use its strongest sides. As I know from Russian servers where I played most of time, players used it as a hunter plane. They climbed to 3000-4000 meters and watched for a single planes then dived to them. After attack they smoothly climbed up to the altitude they were or even higher. Good pilots didn't engage in dogfight battle, because in small speed spit and in horizontal maneuvers spit become very pleasant target for axis and Russian planes. I think the main point is to keep your energy high, try not to lose it or you will be shot down.
I like axis planes but if I meet spit somewhere above me, I try to avoid fight because against a good skilled pilot the result is almost predictable.
