The best cheap premium fighter for only farm SL?

I have 950 golden eagle and several silvers lions problem, my American ki-43-II winning in event is good but I think better exist.
Im not a noob and I play only realistic battle, grinding is not a problem, just f*****g silvers lions, jet is expensive.

Stuff like the Wyvern and Ju-288C apparently print a lot of SLs and should be cheaper than the later premiums

Do 335 B-2 loads some insane weapons though its quite a tricky platform, you have two engines but both are essential to keep on flying properly, a few taps with the high caliber cannons and explosive ammunition may be more than enough to take an airplane; It’s an ‘boom-and-zoom’ type airplane, meaning dogfight and evasion is more likely to be result in your defeat, recommended for close air support at best.

P-51D-20-NA is a middle term, has good ground attack capabilities and it’s a nice fighter, has decent flight performance and the 12.7 mm machine guns can overwhelm most targets making it easier to take it down.

If you not consider that both aren’t ‘fighters’ and base bombing doesn’t give a lot of Silver Lions, those are the proper planes for such task.


Though being a F4U Corsair doesn’t make it perfect, the japanese F4U-1A is loaded only with 12.7 mm machine guns, F4U-1C for example is a good heavy hitter with eight 20 mm cannons and similar performance to the P-51D-20-NA, it’s better than the P-51D-20-NA but isn’t a premium.

big earner but sweaty due to low br.

it does not have 8x20mm

OP said nothing about fair and honest choices

Some of the best and consistent perforing guns rn

China has an A6M2 for GE at rank III, should be just about the most brain-turned-off SL printer there is

If your willing to cough up a little more GE, i’'d recommend the premium f86 in the jap tree.

Usually get 50k+ SL normally while good matches bringing in about 100k.

It’s got early missiles, good energy retention, and can turn fight quite a few planes.

Cons, It’s br has it fighting basically supersonics every other match. Meaning your enemies will almost certainly be faster than you. Now if you know how to fly the f86’s pretty good, you can kill them fairly regularly. But anyone thats an above average player will have the upper hand in most situations.

Eremins yak3 from marketplace. fucking insane performance.

My mistake, I’ve confunded information, in fact, the F4U-1C does have eight technically but it’s equipped with four, specifically the stock 20 mm AN/M2 and the upgraded 20 mm AN/M2 as Rank IV modification.


As better rewards require activity time or number of targets destroyed, Eremin’s Yak-3(e) may be perfect but when compared to a F4U Corsair, the difference may be big enough to notice. As @llSolitairell-psn mentioned, even if the F4U-1A might be “sweaty”, the objective here is money image, if @YomoYsktmtv is considering to pump a few Golden Eagles more, this plane should be perfect, which by the way it’s on sale at the moment. As alternative to Eremin’s Yak-3(e) there’s the french Yak-3 for 800 Golden Eagles at this moment during sales.

lol, dont be silly. There are only 4 guns.
But yes it is a very good aircraft.
ANM2 20mm are VERY good.

I just have 950 GE on my account, I dont know why, im free player.

I dont like A6M, its overrated imo

F4U is 3.0 br, I have budget for 4.0, its better for SL no?

French Yak3?

Edit:

I would recommend to check your performance on statshark regarding SL per match, scored kills and actual WR. It boils down that you should select your “new” premium based on a combined view on these 3 things - and then on the SL modifiers.

If you want SL- BR does not matter.

Boomerang at 3.0 provides lots of SL
Soviet P-63A-5 Provide lots of SL

Spoiler

It’s SL modifiers are just as high if not higher than some Rank 3 and even 4 premiums

My main SL printer is the Strikemaster (anti air role).

Multipliers matter… my highest SL per match without premium time is the P-51D-20-NA. The P-51D-10 and P-47M are higher, but those have only been flown with premium and they’re both harder to get/expensive.

Then it’s A7M1 and P-51C-10… nothing against the Corsair (the TT version is one of my most flown planes), but I would rather fly the Mustang at Rank III as a premium since it allows you to simultaneously complete season/event tasks.

ETA: with premium time, the F-86F-25 actually out earns all of my premiums (except the first three mentioned) by a healthy margin and I am TERRIBLE in that plane. There might be an opportunity there for you - if you’re good with early jets.

Wyvern for ground pound and occasional kills while easily running away from unfavourable situations, or the A7M1 for the strictly air to air route

A premium account and any premium plane you desire. SL is easy.
