Last time I checked you can turn, climb and dive with any of the planes in the game. You just have to understand that time limit for various power setting is just one of the limits and it is used in conjunction with other limits.

In other words, if Military setting is allowed for 10 minutes max. that doesn't mean that you can always use it for 10 minutes. It depends on other factors would you be able to squeeze all 10 minutes of Military Power. Very simple example is plane on the ground, there is no plane that will allow you to use full MP time while you are sitting on the ground. Under these conditions your limit will be temperature and that apply for other flight regimes too.

If you dive at full power and your engine is overrevving you must reduce the throttle no matter that you might be still under permitted time for full power.

But the current problem on MW50 boost is that it is not able to be engaged over 4 minutes in dogfight, otherwise the engine will be blown out.

There will be some changes regarding MW50 in 4.11.1
