What is the best low tier CAS for low tier italy

Specifically for my BR 3.3 lineup, BR 4.0 lineup and BR 5.0 lineup.

Ive just started to give CAS a shot and would like to know what are my options

There isn’t special for 3.3, but Re. 2001 CN is a good fighter with only one 250 kg bomb.
For 4.0 - SM.91 is your best bet: 6x MG-151/20 with 1,800 rounds and 6x 100 kg bombs. It shreds almost everything on the battlefield.
For 5.0 you have only 2 options: P-47D-30 (I recommend it more) or Hungarian IL-10.

I usually use these (btw it’s worth to use both fighter and attacker/bomber in the setup, as there is no penalty between them):

  • 3.3 Re.2001CN or CB (can also drag some lower br premium attacker or bomber for fun, although imo 3.7 is better);
  • 4.0 SM.92 (now it has 2 high caliber drops + very strong offensive and good handling) or premium Hungarian Bf-110 G-4 + premium Hungarian Bf-109F-4 or C.202EC (no bombs though);
  • 5.0 P-47D-30 (best) or Yak-9P (with 37 mm cannon) + IL-10.
    But my favorite combo is Re.2005 and Tu-2S at 6.0.

Br 5.0 - G.55 seriess 1 is a beast. Good guns, good turning ability with 2x 100kg bombs.
