Why not? Any supporting evidence that this is not how it should be? Are you implying both planes should have identical overheating characteristics (despite having vastly different engines let alone cooling systems)?

Don't get me wrong but this is like saying: "Ki-27 can turn much tighter than P-47, such huge advantage cannot be ignored."

L5f's never overheat in RL with rads shut and throttle at 110%?

Obviously you get wrong by yourself here, Ki-27 and P47 are not the same era plane. only idi@t could come up with such fool!sh idea.

Beside I really want some one could shows me some evident can prove that La5f and la5fn never overheat. I am curious that why russians do not increase the power of engine further if it does not overheat at all?
