Strike: B-17 (But its a big target but it packs a hell of a punch. And its good on all lvls. No lowering of elevators or Alerons.)

Capture the airfield: I-153 (Though slow it can land at low speed just like its grandpa the PO-3.)

Team battle: P-51(Arcade)
BF-109 G-6(Realistic)(3 slots down on alerons. If u have a flight stick dont rudder it will spin. If you do get in a Post stall Gyration(Slang for a stall) Just enjoy the ride. If u struggle U r dead. If it doesnt pull out of the stall and spinning. bail out its the only thing left.)
Spitfire Mk 9(Simulator)(6 slots down for perfect flight on alerons. Dont worry bout elevators its fine at full)

Dogfight: P-51 (Arcade)
La-7(Realistic)
Spitfire Mk 9(Simualtor)

I think you got your ailerons and elevators mixed up.


Most devestating attack in BOP = Me262 Booming down on a bomber and hitting with all 4 mk108s

But most important is the most destructive weapon outhere is the one u fly the best. Whatever that means for u Aces outhere. ---Luftwaffe_Rommel----

Here is what I fly when I want to destroy planes (In arcade)

Strike: BF 109 G6 it can take both planes and bunkers. "I discover the destructive power of the G6 on bunkers don't forget that copycats". Sorry about that lest continue.

Capture the airfield: P51D5 Mustang with a load of 2 1000lb bombs

Team Battle: IL2 M. u got ur six cover + armor n speed (IL10 = no speed)



Dogfight: Any of the Spitfires are Kings in Dogfights.


The best plane in the game for me with at least no deaths and a few kills in Arcade is the I-153 (20mm cannon with attachable rockets for bombers). The plane is a little outdated, but on the PS3 I shot you down a few times in that slow turning BF 109 of yours.

I cast my vote for the Yak9T, a 37mm autocannon on arcade is good against anything but your lucky if it doesn't rip your own plane up on simulator.

Well just one single burst from the 37mm cannon on the Yak-9T is enough on simulator or realistic to cause a decent stall and make you fall back to earth. But that's also because the Yak-9T isn't a very powerful plane anyway.

That 37mm is something that should have been put on a heavy bomber. Very powerful gun on it, could easily take out early WWII tanks. It was just put on the wrong plane though. On a IL-2 it would have made a nice combination, but it still is the most powerful gun ever put onto a WWII plane.

What about a tank busting Ju-87 - With the 2 37 mm Bordkanone BK 3,7 gun, that would be mint. No doubt there would be some mentalists trying to dogfight with them if put in the game..............

Think how much harder it would be to shoot down an XB-40, than the B-17G in the game..........

You mean the modified B-17 with the twin top turrets (the original where it was, and the second just behind it), and the waist gunners with twin .50 Cal Machine-guns put together. Meant to be used as long-range escort bombers for the other bombers, going to bomb Germany.

Yeah, that'd be scary to attack one of them.

They also modified some B-24s to be bomber escorts also.
