Default Is there anything the G50 can do good?

I just flew it and its slow, cant turn tight, breaks fast... Pretty *peeep*. Anyone that can confirm or say anything diffrent?

Besides. It takes ages to heat up. Pretty useless if you ask me. I think you cant even catch a bomber with it

Feels more like a G500 For those that know the fiat 500...

Good thing number 1: Suprise the hell out of anyone who gets jumped by it!
Good thing number 2: Actually sounds quite nice compared with other planes in game!(hopefully not for much longer).

Yes its rubbish Winger mate (are you the Winger of 'ROF'? Had some good dog fights with you in the past if so.....DR1 fiend lol) but undermodelled like almost everything else. Still hardly a stellar fighter though in any event.

PS edit your *naughty word* quickly Winger or you'll get banned. Not that it bothers me.....ITS FOR THE KIDS>>>>SAVE THE CHILDREN!!! Kids these days know more swear words than me anyway. Or maybe that just applies in Newcastle.

The G.50 was a crap in real life, and it's a crap in the sim as well.
The thing though, is that it looks like the plane is missing about 200+HP (there was a discussion about this some times ago), so its performance is really sub-par.

Now... why did the Regia Aeronautica choose to adopt such an ungainly, modest and even dangerous fighter plane can't be explained.
Especially since the real winner of the Fighter plane tender of 1936 was the superior and actually very good Macchi C.200.

Fiat was a huge competitor and represented a huge industrial actor,so just think of the most obscure behind-the-scenes actions(bribes), and just do the math

Cheers
Rick

p.s. Maybe I was too crude, but boy, do I hate Fiat...

I agree, the G50 was as big of a failure as the new Cinquecento will be in the North American market.

Be sure.
