luthier, the historical performance btw 109/spitfire/huricane is NOT simulated in CoD

460 kmh = 287.5 mph

470 kmh = 293.75 mph

In this sim, Spitfire IIa Vmax sea level @ max boost (9 lbs indicated) = 300 mph

Yet last month in another thread I was accused of being "misleading" and a "hypocrite" for daring to suggest the IIa's performance was "slightly greater than the 109's".

Compare to the "too fast" (according to Ilya) Hurricane Rotol's Vmax sea level of 260 mph in this sim and likewise the Spitfire Ia's Vmax at sea level of 240 mph.

Spurious insults aside, the sooner ALL FM's for both sides are fixed, the better. A hotfix patch should have been issued a year ago to correct this.
