YaK-9K: Remove it's APHE belt or move it up to 5.7 in GRB

entire Japanese, Briish and even Russian TT can laugh over this guy

tank cannon should probably be able to duel even SPAA at quite big range with lower chance of getting hit. but what’s really good in Yak is it’s durability on battlefield. with such damage you can take out at very least 6-8 enemies i suppose, and those are not open tops. other boomers as far as i can remember, should reload after 2-4 kills.

In theory, you can kill tanks with only one shot, which we know is impossible. The other case is ME262’s 50mm cannon; it is pretty hard to aim until close to 500m, and SPAAs can shot you over 1km away

i think you can fap up to 800m. 100% oneshots would also be too taste for caliber lower than 76mm, but you can do very painful crits. i don’t remember how far was my longest kill but it’s pretty capable. it’s not as OP as Germains or any other weaklings tend to picture it (Russian aura, psyops or something), but it’s definitely very capable and not among worst on BR

People are expecting Yak9k, actually, it is just a 3.0 plane with a 45mm gun; most of the fighters are better than it. And also it is still pretty hard to against Cold War SPAA because the APHE won’t explode when it hits something open top or full armors spaa( espically hit skink and pen far from 1km is impossible)

Then we move to another topic, why these players(like someone above believes it has OP FM??) the only thing I can explain is they just know dogfight, which is the same as those who dogfight with zero and Spitfires, then complain they are OP.

i doubt mehsershmites or fw190s are better with their trash dynamics and maneuverability at sea level

Fw190… it is dead, I must say, but F4 or E4/7 is close, especially at low speed, Fw190 should be considered to use as like P47, using speed to take advantages and then back to head on
