No, none of the planes in game are configured to be long range high-alt bomber escorts… If they did, these props would have drop tanks.
Again, we can duel if you wanna prove your point. I take the P-51, you take the P-47
Where do you get the idea they have these “functions” in game?
I am looking forward to them eventually adding drop tanks onto props. Its an interesting dynamic for many of them. But that is a long way in the future

It’s heavily needed on some, whenever I’m playing sim in a Spitfire or Hurricane (barely ever icl) I really can’t go through the trouble returning to base to rearm unless I need to, so I’d rather stay up over the battle getting more score/capturing zones for my team.
Yeah, adding that extra loiter time would be huge for them (really need to learn how to play props in Sim, its something ive yet to get the hang of)
It’s honestly so much better than jets, I’d recommend starting with the Typhoon, she swings hard to the right on T/O but after she’s really stable

The Zero eats alive the Spit without trying ngl

Until the Spitfire remembers he has an engine and can outclimb, outspeed and outdive a zero (depending on the variant).
The main issue is when you find yourself on equal or lower energy states the zero will probably kill you before your higher power output can save you.

So here we have proof that the so-called " untouchable " Spitfires are very touchable, by even the humble Zero no less.

My initial comment I was talking about how the f4u4 was untouchable, I was merely using it as a comparison for why the f4u4b isn’t.
Okay, I guess I read it wrong then @ _ @
Is this serious? Has to be bait. Hahahaha
Bro did you know that even a bomber can turn inside a fighter if it is sufficiently slower than the fighter. Doesn’t make it a better turnfighter…

i honestly never lost to a zero in a spit, especially because it’s like 50 percent faster compared to the A6M it competes against at all br’s.
Only 7 months after, in a dogfight the Spit has no chance
We’re talking about air RB, not fair duels.
Everyone listen and do what the level 4 player said!
I am a shit player and even i dunk on best spits in the good zeros

Mate how? Most spits aren’t that great, since their Hispanos are far worse than German MG 151’s. They don’t have Minerschosse to kill bombers one-tap, AND the later ones can easily be killed by dragging them into a well-planed dogfight. I have to confess, that I NEVER really kill spits cause most of then time I’m fighting La’s and YaK’s or going base bombing in a B-17.
LOL. Yeah right. A B-17 or anything bigger TOTALLY doesn’t rip it’s wings going over 2-3G. I would rather barrel roll and use my tail gunner. My drunk gunner can do better than a Spit.
