I started
THIS THREAD in the general forum. i think it should be here tho.
here are some figures to play around with.
in AH on the deck, fuel burn set to 0.0000000 (no burn at all)
the bolded number indicates WEP
typhoon at 25% fuel: 372 / 357
P51d at 25% fuel: 368 / 355
typhoon at 100% fuel: 371 / 356
P51d at 100% fuel: 366 / 354
the thing that stand out the most is the fuel load barely make any difference in speed.
anyone care to explain why? or is it a bug?
then i found the following
Flight test now im No expert, but clearly there is something very wrong in either AH or the test they performed.
Here are the contradictions i found between the report and AH tiffi.
- deck speed is wrong, AH tiffi is faster at 357 compared to 345.5.
- according to the source the overall top speed of the tiffi (whats the correct technical name?) is at 20,200feet and is 394.5Mph. AH tiffi does 400MPH.
- AH tiffi fail to hold a boost of +7 at 20,200.
- the source states
-------------------------- R.P.M. Boost lb/sq.in.
Maximum permissible for climb 3500 +6
Maximum permissible for level flight (5 min. limit) 3700 +7
AH tiffi can hold +7 boost for unlimited amount of time.
Another thing i dont understand about the reort is when did they engage the 2nd phase of the SC.
in the climb chart it shows 12,600feet but on the speed chart it shows 15,000feet.
lastly, the report figures are quite low, anyone have a different performance figures?
