Something interesting, at least to me.  

We've got 10 planes in the game with Hizookas.  

They are

Spit 9, Spit 5, Seafire, Spit 14, C-hog, C-hurri, Tiffie, Tempest, Mossie, and P-38.  

Of those, 3 are perked, which basically kills their usage (except for the C-hog.. and compared to pre-perk usage it is pretty much gone).

Of the 7 that are left... 5 are in the top 10.  Consistantly.

Urchin,

I think The F4U-1C was #11, FWIW.

# stats in the MA are porked with the rampant vulching and #noobs constantly upping the latewar planes on capped fields.

Actually Bf110G-2 seems to hold 10. place (in terms of kills):
Bf 110G-2 has 12735 kills and has been killed 16944 times

looks like the spit V completly took over it's "superior" brother the IX. I think in AHI their rankings were exactly opposite.

Mosquito VI - twice the spitfire, four times the ENY.

Out of all the spits the IX is my favourite because it put the RAF on an level playing field against the 190..  The +16 boost on the Spit V has made the spit IX redundant unfortunately,:( unless you're planning to fly over 20k.

I highly doubt the mossie will ever be in the top ten, no matter how hard i try.:D

One of my whole two sorties this month was in the Mossie.  I took out four of them before they pulled me down.

I almost always fly the Mossie as air-to-air, not air-to-mud.

Nah, even with the phenomenal firepower the Mossie will never crack the top 10.  The typhoon does everything the Mossie does, except better.

What would be nice is a fast, unarmed bomber version.  Or perhaps the Tse-Tse.. it'd be interesting going tank-busting with that sucker.

you're mistaken urchin, the mossie sets on fire much better than the tiffie.:D

Karnak i've been doing the same lately.  I'll usually get some kills, but eventually i'll succumb to overwhelming odds.  I'll die, but i'll take some with me.:)

Another thing I noticed was that the MA has decided that the Ki-84 sucks:

The Ki-84-Ia has 5850 kills and has been killed 4289 times.


This is good news for anybody who likes it, as they can flying without being acused of using an easymode fighter like a Spitfire, P-51D, N1K2-J or La-7.
