Check attached NII VVS test chart. The prototype is named La-5 M-82FN SN39210102 It is almost 200kg lighter than a serial production version. It is even better than an early La-7! Ingame, the performance is between this, and the best performing serial plane, but usually closer to the prototype (SN39210495).
200kg lighter would definitely be giving a different performance level. Certainly.
