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 , 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.
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.
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.
In my opinion there is no need to buy premium vehicles to earn more rewards, because there is no totally OP premium vehicle.
Search for planes fitting your playstyle and you have fun with.
More important is to play the game more efficient. Try to win more battles, and more important: If the time is right, go ground pounding and kill AI planes.
Btw XP50 is in the warbond shop this battle pass, so no money needed. Only playing every day.
Last season a british Mustang MK Ia.
With premium account an average player needs no premium vehicles.
Usually the moment you researched a new vehicle you also have the SL to buy it. Only buying expert could be a little problem, depends on how many planes you want to fly.
The P-63A-5 is a solid plane… you will be hard pressed not to enjoy flying it while you grind SL. Maybe it’s just me… I think the 37mm is hilarious when it does what it does… and I tend to get a lot of close range engagements anyway, so hitting with it isn’t terrible. At this BR, the back-up machineguns aren’t bad either.
It’s not you, I use the 37 in panic button, under 300 or bomber sniping.
imo the matchmaking is horrible compared to the American P63A5, my performance is much lower, the games have nothing to do with it but the plane is good for SL
I too have had a much better experience on U.S. teams than Russian ones. If I were a much better player looking for the excitement of carrying matches, I’d spend much more time in the La-7/La-7B. Alas, alas… I do much better as part of a team.
However, in the spirit of the discussion, there’s this:
I remembered your name - i killed you last match - Sorry man!
But i strongly recommend to check always the scoreboard - if the enemy team is almost dead (like in this case you played 8 vs 2 or something like that) the guy with zero points on a extremely cloudy map will always end up above and behind you…
So strafing runs on the enemy forward airfield are fine if you have a rough idea where the last guys are - otherwise they are not advised…
The helicopter’s fight with the mustang? yeah this plane is easy I often overestimate it and make shit in easy situation, I thought then to kill him quickly
Yeah, a good flown P-51 C with some speed is no free kill. I was the in the MB 157 - and saw nothing thanks to this cloud nonsense; and ofc the wt video setup on xbox is trash, defyn vids on yt have a way better resolution 😂
In case you play 1 vs 8 and want to say hi on the enemy forward airfield - a P-47 or He 162 are ideal one-pass killers. I managed in the UK P-47 in my last match (replay) to outrun most of them at high alt (Ki-44, Ki-100, A6M3 and P-51A), trapped the Ki-100 and out-fueled the Ki-44. Smoked him whilst repairing after farming a random stranger in a B-17…
