Why is the Russian reserve starter plane the I-15 so good?

Oh my god, it’s so unbalanced. it’s a small and hard to hit plane and it’s got decent speed. But what makes it so frustratingly in a dogfight is the fact it has 8s turn time and 3x MGs instead of the 2x every other reserve plane has. So, if the crazy turn time wasn’t enough, it has 3x MGs that absolutely murder anyone in its sights. It needs a nerf. Every time I play a TI battle while I’m trying to start a new line there are I-15 that bully everyone in the match. Oh, that’s not all it can carry 2x 50kg bombs. I get Gaijin is trying to be realistic but seriously it doesn’t have to be like this. Russian bias isn’t real you say, sure…

Just played a round of Air Realistic with it and I got first place on my team with 5 air to air kills. This is so unbalanced.

Just like WWS, WWP and WWT. Russian bias is here and it’s here to stay.

If you genuinely think the peashooters on the poor I-15 are OP, wait until you learn that the US gets 50. Cal on their reserve planes!

Oh wait, that wouldn’t suit your narrative of Russian bias, would it?
