BF-109: the worst fighter series in the game

sounds like cope. jut fly in a straight line and these zeroes miss

not what cope means, anyway spitfire players are genuinely just poor players in an op plane very similar to yaks. Zeros having such a high br are because they lack the IQ points to run away and use energy, it’s been fun farming them in re2005

Look at my top 2nd and 3rd then state stuff you’re just coping cuz you can’t tame them right try harder sweetie

They also have horrible flight models in WT. To the point they’re not really good at anything anymore.

i dont think your point proves anything

Mostly because ShVAKs have access to pure HE belts

That the point I want to said, one of the advantage of the 109 is the climb rate but is it the best? Not really, the spitfire, J2M, F8F and etc can easily on-par with them or out climb them. In energy fight those soviet I-185 can easily win the fight while having more powerful firepower. And even the firepower within the mg151/20 they also the worst as the 190 and those Italian got at least 2 on them

That pretty much depends on the model and enemies.

Why does the Bf 109 needs have the best climb just to be good?

A lot of planes with good climb are slow and a lot slow climbing planes are very fast.

The Bf 109 has good climb and is neither the slowest nor the fastest.

Meh they’re fine, if even I can get kills with them they surely are playable

they used to overperform. Easily the best 20mm in game for a number of years,
Every dog has it’s day…

i think theyve been powercrept to much the 190 A5 is more equal to a 4.0 than a 4.3

it was accurate then like what ?

the 20 MG-151 has 19 grams of filler which is HA-41 which is 1.5 times more powerful per gram then tetryl

while shvaks hispanos and colts have 7gram of tetryl which is equal in power pergram to TNT its accurate

and it has a trade off of having poor ballisitics compared to other 20mms

if anything hispanos and shvaks and colts are OVER PERFORMING

lil bro if you think 8g of explosive should be doing the same as 29g then I have a premium to sell you lmao.

And best at what? they still have far lower velocity and are borderline useless past .5 of a mile lol.

190s are genuinely just terrible and show they don’t care, they’ve had so many needs over the years with zero br changes, honestly how in the **** is the f8f lower, a LITERAL super prop.

Warthunder LOVES selective realism, irl the fw190a4 was a monster and made a big shift in air power, in warthunder it’s mid at best.

They need to climb because the Boom and Zoom or energy fight is the only tactics that might help them to score a kill, and you right about some of the plane good climb while slow and the others is the opposite, but they are much better than the 109. Taking Spitfire and the Mustang for example as the good climb while slow and bad climb while fast, the Spitfire is slow but it climb rate can out climb the 109 and make sure they got the height that can change into speed aka the energy; while the mustang having the speed that allow it diving from 3000m having the effect of others plane diving from 5000m. And we haven’t consider they all have more superior firepower than the 109

problem with that is there is atleast three fighters that out climb you by a considerable margin and they always will be higher

I last played the Hungarian F-4 months ago, it is still playable but 20mms are as worse as hitsparkno’s right now. Try the classic BnZ and first concentrate on US fighters.
