Is the Spit16 an awsome plane? Definatly, its fantastic.

Should it be perked? No.

Why?

Well it does not outclass unperked rides like G14, K4, Dora, La7 and Pony. The MA is a late war base lined arena. As long as the base line is late war these rides will be unperked.

I wouldnt mind, would actually prefer, a late 42-43 base lined arena and hence all the mentioned planes pereked. But that wount happen and since that wount happen the Spit16, which is in the performance group of the mentioned planes, should stay unperked.

I have a feeling the K4 will end up perked, thats an outstanding ride, it was rare near the end of the war as far as I know, (Which so was the N1k and the F4u-1C so I don't see why the N1k isn't perked) thought the K4 has limited options it's performance is somewhere near a skyrocket! lol I do wonder how much use it'll get only being able to have the 13mm and the 30mm cannon, you can hit a few bombers with that load out but fighers are a little harder, and 2x 13mm guns is a poor setup against 6x .50 cals, or 2-4x 20mm cannon...

unperk them all - I have over 5k of fighter perks which I never use

unperk them and make it a rolling plane set so you don't have '39/40 planes going against '44/45 ones

The planes are new. They're letting everybody try them out for a week or so. Then HT will perk them as he sees fit. End of discussion.

Wondered how long it be till the first "perk the XVI" comment.

Look at it this way-
Take a 1943 LF IXe with a Merlin 66, put an American built Merlin 266 in it.
Realise that different tooling is required.
In order to differentiate call it a XVI.

Was ONLY called a LF XVIe to differentiate between it and the LF IXe because different tooling was required, they are the SAME aircraft.

I am assuming you said unperk the XIV and perk the XVI because of the numbers, i.e. XVI is higher than XIV.
XIV is a Griffon engined Spit, try flying the XVI at XIV alts (25k+), a XIV will eat it alive.

LOL exactly. The plane has been out for hours not days, and already people are crying perk. I actually feel more in control of a 2-3 on 1 in a spit9 than I did a spit16. When you get that slow you're in the the long haul till death do you part. It cant tuck tail and run away like an La7 can, it can accelerate but its not going to leave every other plane in the dust. Spit9 just turns that much better to get the shots to end the fight that much earlier.

Wouldn't it be cool if perks were dynamic and based on type of plane in the air.
Like if there certain type of AC reaches 10% of all types in the air it automatically gets perked.
For really uber planes, like jets the value could be set much lover like 2% and early warbirds would be always free.
