'docu's' like dogfights are clearly biased. Saying that the P-51 was the best dogfighter is not close to true. At high altitudes, it could outturn a 109, but at low/medium altitudes, it was not a dogfighter at all.
The P-51 in the PC Il-2 1946 is correct. But even choosing it in that game, wont give you many kills. Unless you pick your fights, at high altitude, and boom and zoom.
I normally play in a server were the dogfights are in the 0-7000 ft range. never seen a P-51 with a kill/death ration above 1:5. Spitfires and La will own the P-51 at all time at those altitudes
The BOP P-51 is rubbish for sure. But dont expect it to be a weapon of choice after the update. The dogfights in BOP are close to the ground, with a lot of turning. The 2 biggest weaknesses of the P-51
