Perk the LA-7

Have you heard this before?  

The LA-7 did not have nearly the play in real life as it gets in AHII.   Keep the ridiculous performance, but make em pay for it....ala the Spit XIX or Tempest.

thread 1

 thread 2

thread 3

I think most of them are about unperking the current perk planes since they aren't as good as the la7 is anyway, but somewhere along the line either me or someone else will probably give the reasoning for leaving it unperked.

I would usually agree with you on this, if I hadn't recently discovered something about the La7, that likely prevents it from being a perk plane. It seems to have a rather hard ceiling, where it first loses all gains from wep, and then steadily loses engine performance. They only really like playing near the ground.

So, dont like lala's? Drag 'em up into the ether, and tear 'em to pieces. Works for me:D

NO / HET (NYET)!

perk her OR the others should follow!

P-51B and D (these 2 are SUPER SPIT 14s with longer range!!!)
109G-10
Fw-190A-8
Fw-190D-9/F-8
P-47D-40/25 (substitute P-47D-11 as P-47C)
P-38L (arguably the best NON PERKED fighter-bomber in game besides F4U-4)
Yak-9U
N1K2
A6M5
F4U-1D (lite and improved version on F4U-1, entered in late '44)


basically all late war stuff  

and spit XIV should be perked lightly like F4U-1C...

i think kweezas "final solution" can be implemented if HTC reolease new planes to "fill the hole/gap"... like the Yak-9D, P-38G/J, A6M3, ect ect.

The La7 does not need to be perked.  If you have troubles against the La7, maybe a visit to a trainer might be in order.

That's BS.  Every time I've done so they simply dive for the deck when it gets rough.  It doesn't work.
