Become the fighter yourself. Only way to not get slapped by 9Ks…

Just paint it red and put a big star on it. IMO if the YaK-9K behaved how it does in WT, then the war would’ve ended in 1942. And the Russians would’ve won the Korean War, and beat the Afghanistan MBT’s in the ass using the YaK-9K which, by the way, is also coated with super Stalinium that prevents any radar from detecting and lock AAM to it.

Then the YaK-9 turns to the fighter and say, “Hey…If I shoot tanks why not use the bias and beat planes also?”

Yak-9K is the Russian copy version of the German Ju-87 G version with better speed and more ammo then the Ju-87 G.

Same could be said about Germany. This game caters to German tanks so much, you’d think they won the war.

In what aspect? Last time i checked, they are quite historically accurate in terms of implementation.

IG, the part where the TIger II/Panther engine doesn’t break down every 10 seconds.

Just realized that you’re a great dogfighter that I want to be :(\

KV-1s is also running fine even though in reality it didn’t. KV-2 also had lots of issues due to its weight, no issues in WT. T-34 has immaginary RoF which it never had. And so on.

Every nation in WT has “faulty” vehicles.

Oh wow. Same i dont see KV-1 and KV-2, or T-34 or Cromwell, or Crusader, or M3 Medium, or Churchill with reliability problems. Which all had major problems untill the very later variants.

If they are so accurate, why did Germany lose the war? Clearly German equipment was not as good as Wehraboos think it was.

Because that’s not how the game works?

So the Yak 9 isn’t OP by your logic.

???

How is that related to german tanks?

German tanks over preform, and do not have any of the issues that plagued Germany in WWII.
The Yak 9 cannon had issues with ripping the plane due to the recoil, otherwise it was a good tank hunter.

Therefore if the Yak 9 is OP because it doesn’t perform like it did in real life, then German is also OP because they over perform.

German tanks perform just like an ideal condition real example would.

That recoil is precisely what’s missing. You can fire several shots from it with minimal speed loss or deviation. It was not a good tank hunter because of all of these flaws and more.

We have a BR system for a reason which is the point of this thread. Also, nothing is known about its APHE shell and it is likely overperforming.
