How to play F3H 2 Late Game

How do I play it in late game? People will just follow me around I cant even turn as it’ll kill my speed.

No offense but if they catch you like that then something is wrong. It is a lot better to use it to do a “drive by” on other aircraft from above

Yeah well I tried to do that but somehow Lim5ps were catching up, I was forced to turn and we all know what’s gonna happen then. Are Lim5ps supposed to be faster? I’m not spaded is that why?

In downtiers I just keep my speed and take enemy planes out while they’re distracted or are too slow to dodge. The 20mm colts it has are extremely nice aswell. imo they’re the best A2A guns in WT.

F3H 2 has extremely good low speed flight performace with flaps deployed, however has very bad low speed acelleration which means getting in a 1v1 dogfight with som1 leaves you extremely vulnerable to a 3rd party both during and after a dogfight.

The sparrows are also pretty fun, although not to sure if i’d consider them better than Aim-9Bs. They both accel at different things. The sparrows turn worse (and don’t turn at all untill 2 seconds after launch) and they have very little delta-V, meaning far less range. On the plus side, being radar missiles means they’re uncaged and all aspect, meaning they can be used in headons, and kill enemies flying near perpendicular.

It’s so fun launching em at an enemy 4 miles out going for the headon. and watching them explode 2 miles out having no idea what was coming for them.

in uptiers, I have no idea.
