This plane was already awful at its BR, and now, after Air RB introduced air spawn for everyone, it has lost its altitude advantage as well. Theis plane - considered worst by many - got even worse.

Hear me out, just don t play it.
But yeah it sucks donkey balls atm. It should be 5.3 or even 5.0 with how abismal the performance is, which is a shame because it feels like it would be an absolute crotch rocket considering its body to engine size ratio

They need to rework the spawns for props, especially the high BR one’s; the airspawn is indeed destroying the usefulness of the interceptors, but as well using a bomber at those BR (my beloved darkstar, G8N1 or other B-29, Tu-4,…) are way too close, spawning at 4-6km with a bomber that is made to be used at 10km is just a death sentence… at least they don’t cost 20k sl to repair, now.
I think fighter should spawn on the floor, rework the ‘interceptors’: some such as the J7W1 are, but are considered fighter and climbs really bad, even tho other such as the early F-84 should spawn on the ground. AS well as the XP-50.
And in my opinion I know people will spit on, attack aricraft should spawn as well on the ground, because Playing something stratospheric and having all the bases stolen from turboprops, it is really not fun.
Intercetoprs would spawn at a good 3-4km, while high BR long range bombers should spawn at, at least, 8km to not get overclimbed by any given props.

IRL: Initial 15-20+ m/s with boost. Good for its intended role.
WT: 13.1 m/s (upgraded). Noticeably worse than real life data.
Honestly…that is what makes it worst plane. But even fixing this won’t pull it out of the abyss it’s currently in.

The only way to fix this plane is to have game objectives at 10km of alt. It was not intended for the alts Air RB happens in. It’s like bringing a heavy bomber for a dogfight.
Imagine a battle where there are no ground targets, but only AI bombers at 12km of alt. What would you rather be in, a Yak 3U or Ta 152 C3?
Lowering the Ta 152 C3 in BR is not going to help. It’ll just get reversed by lower BR planes at the usual altitudes where Air RB happens: 0-5km of alt. The Fw 190 D9 is simply better, more fitting for the job.
Ta-152C was the low altitude interceptor variant
Of course it will.
