Why Seafire mk3/17 in GRB move to 5.3/5.7

How did Gaijin believe Seafires were worth 5.3-5.7 in GRB??? Just another turn-fighter case? Seafire MK3 is just a Spitfire MKIX, which is 4.7, even worse than it at high alt, or worth than those 4 guns spitfire mkv around 5.0, how could it be 5.3??? Is a 500lb bomb really so powerful?

its actually a mkV thats been navalised and given some more horsepower. It has zero business being higher than 4.3

Im honestly amazed that the 500 and 250lb hitmarkers are deemed worthy of moving them up at all

yeah, but it tests close to MK9s, and its engine in the game seems have no difference with MK5, and a little bit heavier, especially considering Mk Vc/trop is 4.7 with 4*20mm guns…

Its got a merlin 55M which is making the same horsepower as the 45M in the Vc trop so about 130hp more than a Vb which uses a base merlin 45.

an extra 130hp is worth being the next jump up in BR from its closest peer, the Vb, and the C wing ammo count is worth another if there wasnt extra weight from navalisation

probably should be 4.3 as i will take even the MB5 over it, and that thing SUUCKS for 5.0, probably ought to be 4.0-4.3 itself
