Shvaks btw
Might not transfer to jets but the bi fights props as well as jets.

I feel engagement distances peak a little a round superprops and the come down , so early jets pull the trigger a little later since they’ll be catching to their ww2 era rounds in some cases.
I would like to see the P-51H to climb like this https://youtu.be/rP2IPyaJ7fM, right after hitting 5000m you can go down to 20% and reach 700 easy while still climbing and having almost 20 mins of fuel left, good luck trying to get the advantage in anything

i dont want to sound rude but
youre the one denying facts
it doesnt matter what the HE mass is
its not only somewhat its prob about 300m/s difference (i cant tell for sure rn tho cuz im taking a few weeks of a brake on WT)
maybe not only play russia (Rank 3-5 ARB) and tell me your expirience with flying stuff like 109s and 190s or stuff like that
im sorry to tell you but thats how guns work
yea maybe think more
ill help you read what the guy said
did you spot the word OTHER in that sentence?

you can cruise at +600km/h at 10% throttle too
where does that fuel efficiency come from?
BI is mostly used on SQB’s and it’s a monster there. Also even for ARB with reduced throttle BI can still outmaneuver EVERYTHING it can face, still it’s not a dogfighter, you go in the space and boom/zoom enemies.
At 55% throttle:
You burn ~110 kg/min for ~620 kgf thrust.
You burn a third of the amount of fuel for 2/3 thrust still.
Move BI from 6.7 to 7.7 or something - #3 by RunaDacino
6.7 is absolute joke for BI, it’s like Maus at 6.7… or IS-6 at 6.0.

The more i read. The more i want
There is literally NO SINGLE reason to let it be 6.7… even at 7.3 BI would be still VERY OP.
If BI is 6.7 then I want ME-163B-0 / Ki-200 at 7.0. not 8.3…
When Me-163B-0 / ki-200 are 8.3 then BI should be 8.0 then.
0.3 BR diff is fair. not 1.6BR…

From WTRTI, really usefull for WT, you can download it for free on GitHub, is 100% legal so dont worry
the problem is that the BI needs some aim and more than two working neurons
most aircraft that fall into this category are very op due to how players fuck up playing them all the time and just die to the first enemy they see
Comparing their performance is most logic.
BI is much faster but less fuel, KI-200 / ME 163 are much slower but has more fuel - Speed/Sustain trade-off
BI has less ammo, bc smaller, lighter and faster, Me-163B-0/Ki-200 are bigger, slower and has more ammo. that’s why 0.3 BR higher is fair, bc ammo is more crucial is this case.
Player’s skill factor CANNOT be a base of balance, because even weak vehicles can be deadly in right hands…
Some ppl can kill Abrams with BT7, but it doesn’t mean that BT7 should be 8.0 right?

Wrong.
So can anyone with Shvaks, the difference is, Shvaks can actually hit their target at few hundred meters.
Wrong.
Shvak on Yak-3e alone is more armanent tham Bf 109 K4 has at 5.7
MG is just a cherry on top. Yak3e has no business being anywhere else but 4.7
Same applies to normal Yak-3. The fact 1 has slightly less armanent doesn’t matter, as both can dismantle a Bf 109 by hitting 1 20mm shell to the wing.
True, at 7.3 it would still deny the enemy any chance of dogfighting and it would still outclimb, outturn and out-energy everything
Yeah, essentialy BI can run 40% (which is enough power to outperform anyone else AND outturn them) for like 10m straight. At 20% it has fuel for more than the match lasts.
The trick to have super good performance at 40%?
Use up at least 40% of fuel.
People act like this plane needs full power to turn well.
Once it drops 40-50% of fuel, it needs way more to turn crazy-good, and at 1m of fuel left, it can still happily last till the match ends.

you dont even need the 20 mm you can onetap most enemys with only one of the two 50cals on the yak3
so there is no point for the yak3(e) [basically a yak3 at 4.0 which performs slightly better (you wont notice it) and has one less OP gun (you also wont notice this) ] to be this low

I mean, I agree. 4.7 is a more reasonable spot. It’s not like Bf 109 G6 has good chances against it anyway, lol.

at least at this br the yak3 cant just appear 1km above the 109

The mk-108s are better than the Shvaks.
If minenrounds would work in WT as they do IRL then yea. but at this moment, they aren’t xd

It works 2 ways.
If 30mm M-geschoss worked right and if 20mm Shvak HE did not work like a goddamn HAMMER OF GOD.

Yea Russian stuff is OVERperforming, NOT-Russian is UNDERperforming - 1’st law of WT.
IRL 30mm minenrounds could LITERALLY cut a bomber’s tail IN A HALF, with single round. 20mm was less powerful, but still devastating. Meanwhile in WT they are HIT’geshoB xd
And russian ammo has tiny nuclear bombs inside…

“Faster” your controls start to lock out at 425~ mph
You lot are just as bad as the people who complain in grb. You ever think your the problem? Not the nation you lot always seem to complain about?
Anyways, have you ever fired a shotgun at skeet in real life? Do you get lead? I do. And I do it rather well in the BF-109Z. And can do it well in the BI, but the BI’s cannons are weaker. ADMIT IT.
136g HE vs 6.7g HE that is 20.29 times higher HE mass for the mk-108s over the shvaks.
