I found this nice little tool called Il2 Compare v4.07m this morning, it has the top speeds, climb rates and turn times of every plane in Il2 1946, barring the mod planes of course Since the planes in BoP use the same flight models, all the data should be the same.

The 190D9 is about 40km/h faster at sea level and 80km/h faster at 15,000ft, enjoys a climb rate advantage over the Yak-3 at any altitude, and can outmanoeuvre the Yak-3 if the combat speeds are kept over 300mph, though if the combat speeds drop to 200mph or so the Yak-3 will have a major advantage. So long as a D9 pilot doesn't slow down and play the low speed turning game the Yak-3 is so good at they shouldn't have to worry too much.
