There was an incomplete Ki-88 and a prototype Ki-98. In addition, the Ki-102 ostu should have a wider selection of missiles. The following can be added to the CAS gun aircraft:
The Japanese Navy had plans to install a, if I remember correctly, 100-150mm gun on the P1Y
Yes please.
The me262 at the 6.7 is what the yak is to 4.0 there is literally no denying it.
and the Su-8? Wanna talk about flying boats, that thing is a WW1 battleship.
You mean the 1.3 sec reload on the Xa? It’s 78 rnds a min.
lol now we cherry pick what doesn’t prove things eh?
Oh look. Now I’m bad. I’m rather effective in the TU-1 but “bad” in the Yak, because… I don’t take either into a fever dream of a perfect attack spree? That’s called being honest. Not bad
“You click on people and they die” well tickle me pink, if you think the yak is so good, the Xa has double the pen, and double the HE with 4 bombs at a lower br no less.(and higher rank = better rewards).
Then why can’t ULQ or anyone else compile the same effectiveness out of a better plane like the Xa?
He won’t provide his replay, which is even more suspicious
Because Yak-9UT is the best vehicle and getting same results on other planes is not possible?
My stats in game in Yak-9UT are visible for everyone to see ;)
I remember reading that the Ki-98 started having it’s parts constructed but they were never out together and almost everything was burned.
But wasnt the Ki-88 only a wooden mockup?
The Japanese claim that work on the Ki-88 prototype has started. As for the Ki-98, here’s a suggestion about it:
I’ve had a fair bit of fun trying to use this, but a 3s reload on an aerial 37mm with poor pen is just too little. I’ve had greater success using it against aircraft.
Regardless, everything in that list doesn’t quite fit. I was specifically looking for single engine fighters about on-par with the Yak-9K that had a gun like this. Some like the Ki-96/Ki-45 Hei and Tei don’t even get AP for their 37mm (is there a missing shell?); Ki-108 has horrendous performance especially at low altitude so its improved 37mm doesn’t do much good; Ki-102’s new ‘AP’ shells have horrible penetration.
The Yak-9K at 4.3 is better than the 262 A-1/U-4 at 6.3.
Only one of these can effectively deal with fighters AND tanks at the same time.
It handles identically to most the other twin engine attackers (and much better than a few like the Hs 129) that you keep pretending are comparable to a lightweight single engine fighter.
Oh sorry, it’s MERELY a 2.22s reload after each shot, vs the 9K’s…
0.23s reload
I’ve already addressed this, funny how you keep ignoring arguments that don’t suit yours.
And again, as you keep deliberately ignoring, twin engine attackers handle like shit when compared to the Yak-9K. You even said this yourself:
Because it’s WORSE than the 9K you dense mf
The only single-engine Japanese aircraft with a gun are the Ki-98 and Ki-88. You can probably add a 30mm cannon. Then there are the A6M3 30mm, Ki-84 hei, J2M2 30mm, J2M5 30mm, Ki-61-I Kai Tei (?), Ki-87, Ki-94-II, J7W1, Kikka and Ki-200.
none of these planes will be 4.0
The 262 Pulk does less damage with its APHE and turns worse. It also cannot easily engage enemy aircraft like the Yak can. Not only is this true, but they have a major BR difference.
They are not. They do less damage, are slower and easier to shoot down, and often can’t get their guns on target. They cannot engage ground units as easily due to their size and often only have time to take a single shot before pulling off unlike the Yak, which can quickly pull out of dives, has better APHE performance on average, and fires faster.
Which until gaijin adds them (no doubt with a horrible flight model) I can’t compare them.
I did the 30mm J2M5 earlier, and it’s just not comparable. Navy 30mm APHE is good, but lacks pen. Guns are far out in the wings with low ammo count, and you get no backup guns.
Army 30mm guns only have AP-T with horrible post-pen damage, J7W barely flies, Kikka and Ki-200 are too high BR and poorly armed.
Maybe the A6M3 would, due to low ammo count. Especially if its the clipped wing model.
And like, it’s kind of important to remember one is a prop aircraft (accelerates very well at low speeds) and one is a early jet fighter (famous for terrible low speed acceleration.)
What does this mean?
The yak-9 can do a vertical loop, put engine on idle and coast with plenty of time to take an aimed shot and then pull out, maneuver and very quickly accelerate back to 350-400 km/h.
Me-262, in a straight line - not a climb! - needs 10 seconds to go from 200 to 300 km/h (and wants to fall out of the sky at 200 km/h), 300 to 400 takes another 11 seconds.
Yak-9 is a prop so statshark cannot calculate its time to speed unfortunately, but might go into WTRTI later to try and get its values. Off the cuff, i’m confident it does accel faster to 300 km/h from 200 km/h
Not just that, it also retains the speed it has much better, and can turn much tighter. Enemies will have less time to get into cover after a failed pass and its nose authority makes that much less likely.
You could do a SEP chart for both, it’d be mostly accurate.
Or you chose not to provide any other evidence… which makes you… biased
I only agree the Su-8 floats like a boat, others I have flown aren’t that bad. They’re no fighter with a 3 sec turn time, but still extremely viable
Like I don’t own XA-38 Grizzly (125 battles played, can be checked in game without any issue so come on with this trolling).
Just becaues You have played only 3 games in Yak-9UT and 2 games in Yak-9K doesn’t mean that other peoples are as biased as You are (54 games in XA-38).
I have been / seen many people get shot down by the pulk. And it’s cannon has more pen with same he filler no?
So you’re saying a 2000 lb or 4000 lb bomb on a planes is less effective?
This is simply Russian hate at this point. I can do a short dive and nuke tanks with 500 or 1000 lb bombs, something even bigger is ridicules.
Thus you are again arguing in bad faith.
Of course it is.
If you are so experienced, like I said earlier, you should be more effective with the bigger armament carrying aircraft.
Considering you showed an ideal match in the yak, let’s see one for what you consider a worse aircraft
