well i always believed that the bf is a better climber than the spit, and way better than the hurri.
all the pilot notes that i have read state that against the hurri and also the spit you should fight vertical
i never even considered beeing outrunned or outclimbed by a hurri which had less energy than me,...and by the way it was no ai that killed me but a player.

If you are flying against AI they seem to always out perform the virtual pilot.s machine. If I am attacking aformation at full throttle, my squad mate always pass me, out climb etc.
