What is the N1K1 doing in the Floats! event?

They disabled the Zero bc it would be OP af, but not the N1K1???

My thinking exactly…

It’s so funny facing reserve tier aircraft in a 2.3 fighter plane. Idk who at Gaijin thought it was a good idea.

Having played the N1K1 before… I found it to be completely garbage.

It’s been removed.

Yeah it has the performance of a float Zero, except it doesn’t turn well.

It’s one of the least effective planes of all time o_O

It’s not that it doesn’t fly good, but compared to a bunch of bombers it’s amazing. That’s all

I wouldn’t be surprised if those bombers turn better to be fair.

Lmao, I did try turning fighting one in the BV… I died…

But now it’s a 2.3 fighting almost exclusively 1.0s. It can shred bombers in seconds while everyone else it left with 1-2 7.62s, and if they’re really lucky some .50cals (Italy).

You can almost pull a cobra in a PBM-1 Mariner tbf

It’s not the best in regular RB, but this event is not normal RB. It has 2 20mms which are decent, and it is a 2.3 plane fighting reserve bombers.

Psssst. The devs don’t play their own game.

ye it’s the only plane that can shred bombers in seconds with no real way of them defending themselves. It probably sucks in air battles though.

AkTuAlly, if you knock the floats off you get a Zero or N1K1 (5.0) at 2.3.

H8K3 exists too. Abd it has 20s as defence

Again, Japanese
